By H. D. Qulgff
(United PrflM Staff Correspondent)
Manchester, N. H., March 3 IP)
The defense today produced the
first of a series of witnesses who
will say cancer-patient Mrs. Abbie
C. Borroto, 59, was dead when Dr.
Hermann N. Sander injected air
into her veins.
"I thought she was dead," said
Mrs. Cecilia Smith, supervisor of
the women's ward at Hillsbor
ough county hospital where Mrs.
Borroto died Dec. 4.
Dr. Sander is accused of taking
her life by Injecting air In n
mercy murder.
Mrs. Smith said she entered
Mrs. Borroto's room about 11 a.m.
on the day of her death at the re
quest of Miss Elizabeth Rose, the
bedside nurse.
"Did you take Mrs. Borroto's
pulse?" asked defense attorney
Robert P. Booth.
No Pulse
"I wasn't able to get a pulse,"
said Mrs. Smith.
She returned to the room a few
minutes later with Dr. Albert F.
Snay, a staff physician. She
watched Dr. Snay try to get a
pulse and listen with a stetho
scope to Mrs. Borroto's chest.
"What was Mrs. Borroto's ap
pearance? asked Booth.
"She had an awful death pallor
. . . and she was cold and clammy
to the touch, replied Mrs. Smith.
"What was her condition?"
"I thought she was dead."
"Was she breathing?"
"No."
"Was Mrs. Borroto gasping?"
"No."
"Are you sure?"
"I'm positive."
Sounds Heard
Mrs. Smith said that when Dr.
Sander arrived she did not go Into
the room "but walked away to
take care of my own duties."
"Have you ever heard any
sounds coming from a person aft
er death?"
yes."
"What were those sounds?"
"The sounds of air escaping."
Atty. Gen. William L. Phinney,
who had dramatically read the
hippocratlc physician's oath to
the jury, began cross-examination.
Mrs. Smith said In answer to
Phinney's questioning she got the
stethoscope for Dr. Snay and that
he was in Mrs. Borroto's room
about two minutes. She said she
saw Dr. , Snay and Dr. Sander
meet in the corridor as Dr. Snay
left the room.
Mrs. Smith said she saw Dr.
Sander enter the room but she
did not enter with him.

International
Court Sustains
Russian Views
The Hague, Netherlands, March
3 (ii'iThe international court of
justice ruled 12 to two today that
the United Nations General assem
bly cannot admit states to UN
membership without a recommen
dation from the security council.
In effect the ruling upholds a
veto on memberships by the Big
Five, powers represented on the
council Russia, Britain, France,
China and the United States.
The advisory opinion was ask
ed by the general assembly after
repeated soviet vetoes in tne se.
curlty council prevented numer
ous prospective UN members, In
cluding Italy, from obtaining
membership.
The dissenting votes were cast
by the judges of Chile and Brazil.
The court ruling upheld the po
sition of Russia, which has main.
tained that the security council
must agree on all memberships.
Not Subordinate
The court said the assembly
and council were principal organs
of the UN and that "the council
was not in a subordinate posi
tion."
Admission can "only be grant
ed on the basis of a recommen
dation by the council and, there
fore, "If the assembly had power
to admit a state In the absence
of a recommendation by the coun.
cil, the latter would be deprived
of an important role in the ex
ercise oi une oi uie t:rmiu
functions of i the organization,"
the 'court said. , , ;
It added:
"Nor would It be possible to
admit that the absence of a rec
ommendation was equivalent to
an unfavorable recommendation.
upon which the assembly could
base a decision to admit a state."

Truman Ignores
Facts, Charge
Washington, March 3 iui Sen.
Joseph R. McCarthy, R., Wis.,
claims President Truman disre
garded some "known" facts when
he said the only concrete action
against communists has been
taken by his administration.
In a formal statement last
night, McCarthy challenged the
president's news conference state
ment. "The p r e s 1 d e n t," McCarthy
said, "disregards the known fact
that almost every one of the com
munists who have been convicted
in this country, including Alger
Hiss, were convicted as a result
of congressional action.
Mr. Truman, he continued,
seems willing to reverse a pre
vious decision and make part oi
the state department's loyalty
files available to congress.
"If only part of the information
is going to be made available, who
is to decide which part?" McCar
thy asked. "Why can't the com
mittee be trusted to see it all u
there is nothing to hide?"
McCarthy has charged, there
are 57 card-carrying communists
working for the state department.
A senate foreign relations sub
committee has been set up to in
vestigate those charges.
