Mental Finding in 1887
Murder Ruled Futile

District Court Judge Alex
ander Holtzoff said yesterday
that it would be impossible for
pSychiatriStS to learn now
whether a man convicted of
murder in 1887 was mentally
competent then.
The case invloveS a claim by
James BoStic, who was sem
fenced to die in the electric
chair, that he was not mentally
competent to stand trial on the
first-degree murder charge.
Bostic, now at the Atlanta
Penitentiary, was found insane
in 1910 and transferred to ST.
Elizabeths Hospital. A second
lunacy hearing was held in
1949, and he again was found
to be insane.
In 1851, the President COM
muted his death sentence to
life Imprisonment, and he was
transferred shortly thereafter
from St. ElizabethS to the At
lanta Penitentiary to serve the
sentence.
The United States Court of

defense has reason to believe
wiretap evidence gathered by
Senator McClellan's rackets
committee was used to obtain
the indictment against Mr..
Hoffa.
1--WE think that if we can
question these witnesses under
oath, we can establish it," he
said.
Leaks Charged
During the proceedings,
United States Attorney Paul T.
DoWd said he had learned that
a subpoena had just been served
on John Siegenthaler, admins
trative assistant to the At
torney General. 1t, too, was
quaShed.
Mr.. KosSman told the judge,
1--WE have information, and
think that we can prove it, that
he (Mr. Siegenthaler) is the
person who has been leaking
information to the press that
is prejudicial to Mr.. Hoffa. "

yesterday was charged with
three safety violations in con-
nection with a ditch cave-in
last Saturday that suffocated
an employee of the company.

At a Municipal Court hear

Appeals last December ruled
that a District Court judge
had erred in denying BoStic a
petition to vacate his convic-
ton and sentence, without
holding a hearing.
The Appellate Court, in a q
to-l opinion, ordered the case
sent back to District Court with
instructions to hold a hearing
on Bostick's mental compe-
tency to stand trial back in
1897.
Burger DiSsentS
In the dissenting opinion,
Judge Warren E. Burger said
a psychiatrist had found Bostic
sane three days before his trial
and that the mental disorders
appeared after years spent in
the Death House" awaiting
execution.
Judge Holtzoff was asked
yesterday by Attorney Edward
j. Skeens to order doctors to
see if Bostic was mentally ill in
1887 or had an intellectual or
emotional defect that would
have interfered with his trial.
Mr.. Skeens also asked the
judge to order doctors to see if
Bostic had any mental disease
or defect at specific times since
his birth and at times related to
the development of his case.
Judge Holtzoff rejected the
idea Of having psychiatristS
examine Bostic. How can a
mental examination today de-
termine whether a person was
sane or insane 20 years ago"
the judge asked.
Held Impossible
mo psychiatrist can express
an opinion whether anybody
was sane or insane 20 years
ago. That's impossible" Judge
Holtzoff said.
Assistant United States At
torney Oscar AltShuler said that
the Government would like the
examination held "in the in
tereSts of caution for whatever
value it might be to the court"
Judge Holtzoff, while ruling
out a psychiatric examination,
said he thought psychological
tests to find out if Bostic was
suffering from any permanent
defect would be worth
conducting.
The judge ordered two psy-
biologists to conduct indie
pendent examinations at the
Atlanta Penitentiary and to
back to the court. The
competency hearing was
rescheduled for May IL.
Judge Holtzoff turned down
a request by Mr.. Skeens that
he recommend communication of
Bostic'S life term to IS years,
which would release him. The
judge said he lacked power
to do this.

Mr.. Kossman replied, THE
Attorney General has been de-

Hoffa. Mr.. Kennedy has made

wants to see Mr.. Hoffa rot in

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Mar. 10
(AP). - Scientists Of Harvard
University and Massachusetts,
Institute of Technology are
trying to solve one of the deep
mysteries Of modern science
the strange world of particle
physics.
In their efforts they are
using a $12 million giant cleo
iron accelerator with the fast
est, the most intense and the
most energetic beam of cleo
irons in the world.
Details of the project, sup
ported by the Atomic Energy
Commission, were disclosed yes
terday by Prof. M. Stanley
Livingston of NIT, director of
the Cambridge electron accel-
orator.
Particle physics deals with
the mysteries within the atom,
of which everything is made,
including human beings.
Invisible World
In the study into this in
visible world of high energy
physics, the Cambridge scien-
fists are hurting tiny pieces
of atoms around a 750-foot
covered race track.
The track is a slender, hol-
low steel "doughnut" with a
vacuum inside.
ElectronS hurting close to
the speed of light-186,000
miles a Second-are injected
into the hollow doughnut while
a ring of 48 magnets focuses
them in their circular path.
Each magnet is IL feet long
and weighs six tons.
Energy for ElectrOns
Electrical fields add energy
to the electronS as they speed
10000 times around the track,
riding crests of radio waves.
With electrons thus built up
in energy the scientists will

though they really do love

Now that you are ap-
