Interest in the City Clubs criticism
Of the Government hospital was en-
livened today with the announcement
that John N. Mann. a former petty
offcer In the navy and a patient at
the hospital eluded a nurse yesterday
and committed suicide by leaping
from wharf near the Washington
steel and Ordnance Company at Giles
boro. ID. e.
In criticising the Government Hos
pital for the Insane, w. Pearce Ray
ner, chairman of the group. said:
The situation is a crime-hardly a
day passes that the police don't get
report OF one or more persons who
have escaped from the asylum"
There are only two methods to
pursue In handling the mentally af-
hicted,' said DR.. Noyes, who Is an
expert of wide experience in the treat
ment OF mental diseases. zone Is to
keep all patients locked up in rooms.
regardless OF the character OF their
af1iction. The Other Is to keep the
violent confined and extend privileges
to the patients sufficiently improved.
THE latter treatment is the ap-
proved one. II is used in every hos
pital for the insane. Sometimes We
reckon wrongly as to the extent of
Improvement of the patient given
privileges. but 1t Is better to lose
few who run away than to keep the
hundreds of others who want to be
cured and who have no idea OF break

greatest good for the greatest num-

Keeping patients. except the vio-
lent cases. locked in rooms, impedes
their recovery. The constant en-
sironment of single room is harm

endant for every patient who is per-
hitted freedom OF the grounds.

DR.. Noyes admitted that the hos
)ital quota OF attendants was not
.ull. He said, however, that the hos.
pital did not have a great shortage of
attendants because the Government
paid more than the State asylums.

NOT VIOLENT PA1IEN1.
After a STAFF conference this was
agreed to, IL being felt that Mann
was not violent patient and that
under the care OF his brother, a ply
sician. it would not be inadvisable to
permit his parole.
A week ago. Mann was brought
back to the hospital. He was given
privileges OF the hospital grounds
and broke his parole. being found on
a bridge over the Anscostia river by
a policeman. He apparently was con-
templating suicide than. and his ar
rest probably prevented his self-de-
struction at that time.
Brought back TO the hospital,
Mann was confined under an attend
ant in one of the wards. He eluded
the attendant yesterday and escaped
from the hospital"
Or. Noyes, who Is acting head OF the
hospital in the absence of DR.. William
w. White, superintendent. said he Is
conducting a investigation to de-
termine responsibility for Mann's es-
cape.
