"He had everything we could write for him in very substantial amounts." Treanor said, referring to auto insurance However, his driving may have been somewhat eccentric too' "His accident loss record was such that Travelers canceled him out." Treanor. a friend of Thompsons, also testified that Thompson "indulged his wife a lot," that "the two got along very well," and that Thompson "would have done anything to keep her happy." Thompson's wife stood to inherit a fortune from her parents estimated up to $1 million. Around Feb. 6, 1962, Thompson began i for huge amounts of insurance on his wife, plus double indemnity for accidental death, with such a "sense of urgency," Treanor testified, that he sent a letter to the company home office. Striking for the defense, Se- gell read the letter to the jury.

It said the company should realize that "Carol Thompson is the only child of wealthy parents, with their estate estimated from one-half to one-million dollars." Should she die, Thompson felt, it said, that her estate would go to their four children and "bypass him." Segell asked: "One reason why Thompson might want all this insurance on Carol is to provide a hedge against the bypassing of an estate--wouldn't this be one reason for a large amount of insurance on a healthy young woman?" Treanor said yes, it would. Thompson is charged with first-degree murder in what the state contends was a three-man plot, masterminded by the husband, to do away with Carol, 34, a choir singer, ardent church worker, devoted housewife and mother. The state expects to show that Thompson had a girl friend with whom he spent nights dancing, dining, and sharing motel rooms. Prosecutor William Randall told the jury he would show that Thompson promised her, shortly before his crash insurance buying program began, that within 11 months he would have enough money for both of them to live on. Carol was slain in their St.

Paul home last March 6. Mme. Nhu Delays Trip To Rome BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (UPI)--Like any other woman might, Mme. Ngo Dinh Nhu wept softly when she saw a photograph of her three children in far-off Rome, it was learned.

The often sharp-tongued Mme. Nhu, whose composure seldom has broken in public. apparently softened at the sight of the youngsters. She and her eldest daughter. Le Thuy, ia, were to have flown today to Rome for a reunion.

But Tuesday night she changed plans and cancelled the journey on the advice of doctors who said she "cannot endure a trip at this time" and advised a "complete rest." She remained secluded in her hotel suite instead. A hotel source said Mme Nhu's eyes filled with terrs when she was shown the pic-1 ture taken in Rome and trans-! mitted here via UPI radiotele- i photo. She had been advised I that the children--Trac. 15, Le quyen, 4, and Quyhn, 10 had arrived safely in Rome Tues-' day on a flight from Saigon, olic Church. He met the chil- The deposted first lady of South Viet Nam, widowed by the revolt against the regime of her brother-in-law, said in a statement that she ''intends to have her children with her as soon as possible but first wants to speak (by telephone) to the archbishop in Rome." (Archbishop Ngo Dinh Thuc, Mme.

Nhu's brother-in-law, is in Italy to attend the Ecumenical Council of the Roman Catholic Church. He met the children in Rome on their arrival from Saigon.) Dr. Maury Parks, a plastic surgeon who last Thursday removed a small cyst from Mme Nhu's left eyelid, said it would not be necessary for her to be hospitalized. He said she was "extremely tired" and that she had been "running on nervous energy all week." She brushed off most questions from newsmen who approached her in the hotel lobby as she walked briskly past them on her way to her doctor's office Tuesday. But in reply to one question as to whether she felt defeated, she snapped: "never." Then, in a low voice, she added: "I hsve always felt the immortal soul is more important than the flesh." E.
