Taft, distant relative of President William Howard Taft. Mrs. Martha Ann Taft, 30 entered a dual plea of inno cent and innocent by reason of insanity to the April 21 slaying. She had admitted in a "suicide" note crushing his head with a hammer. Taft, 38, a missile executive with Aerojet - General Corp., was beaten to death while he slept in the couple's fashion able home. Suicide Attempted Mrs. Taft had slashed her wrists and gulped a large dose of pills after the slaying. She was hospitalized several weeks recuperating. In a six-page note she left, she told of getting out of bed in the middle of the night after they had quarreled bit terly over whether she was faithful. "I got a hammer and hit him over and over and over' the note said. Defense Argument "Forgive me for the terrible thing I have done, I must have been out of my mind."

Dr Moore transportation today to Los Angeles, where she can catch a polar flight to London - and by-pass customs in New York.
