Giants Can Tie Cards as
N. l. RunnerS-Up.
BY HUGH S. FULLERTON, JR.,

w yHILE the Cubs and Cardi-
AA/ mails are engaged in their
w bitter struggle for the Ma
tional League peruant,
most of the other teams in both cir
cults have settled their differences
about the standing and are now en-
gagged In the search for players to help
improve their positions next year.
In the National League, where the
Cubs won their nineteenth straight by
defeating the Cards, l to 0, yesterday
the only real doubt is whether the
Dodgers or Reds will finish in ffth
place, although the Giants still have
as much chance of tying st. Louis
for second place as the Cards have
of pulling up even with Chicago.
The first five places in the Amer
lean League have been definitely set
tied and the one question is whether
the Browns can overtake Washington's
sixth-place Senators.

Contact Brings Praise
For G0llinger
To the Editor Of The Times:

To the Editor of The Times:
There has been much voiced
and printed of the inefficiency Of
the staff and attendants of Gal
linger Hospital, and I, like many
others of the general public be-
lieved this without having actually
come into personal contact with
these conditions.
1t has been necessary, in the
past four weeks, for me to &C.
quaint myself with these facts
personally. and also personally
contact the doctors and nurses of
the isolation ward of this hospi-
tai. My son has been confined in
the isolation ward with menen,
gifts and if the care given him is
inefficient, then it would be very
much to the advantage of other
hospitals in Washington to prac-
tice this same inefficiency, as the
care given him was above re-
proach.
I wish to take this opportunity,
through your paper, to enlighten
the public and also give to those
working in the isolation ward Of
this hospital my most heartful
thanks, both for myself and my
son.

NEW CONGRESS
FACES BATTLE

President Roosevelt last night
seemed destined for a jolt in his
hope of making the next session
of Congress a short one.
Leaders of various legislative
blocs emphasized they will wage
their battles anew when Congress
reconvenes January 3.
The first battle the Administra.
ton will have to face, in all prob
ability, will be the bonus. A cash
payment bill is certain to pass
both House and Senate, in the
opinion of leaders.
With national elections coming
up after Congress ends, the bonus
issue and other problems may
face an entirely different fate
from the last session.
Silverites are ready to battle to
finish, with the inflationists
backing them. At the same time,
there will be problems of relief
also entering into election posi-
bilities.
President Roosevelt is known to
hope the next session can adjourn
inside of three months.

Finds Police Discourteous,
How About You?
To the Editor OF The Times:

To the Editor OF The Times:
I want to call your attention to
a matter that consider Of great
Importance to every visitor to this,
our wonderful city. This is the
Capital City of our nation; it be-
longs to no special class-but to
every citiZen-one and all alike.
When a man sets foot on these
sacred streets he has a right to
feel that he is as much owner OF
the land upon which he stands as
any man, and that. unless he vio-
lates some city ordinance, lc has
right to move about as he
pleaSeS. If he unknoWingly does
make some mistake, he doesn't de-
serve to be called down by some
bird who wants everyone block
away to hear him, simply because
he wears q police badge.
If there is any city in this coun-
try of ours where courtesy and
decent treatment should be mat
ter of course-especially on the
part of the police force-it is here.
have been a resident here
since 1881 and have heard several
officers "squall" at motorists
about parking after p. M, and
the like. No man would object to
having his attention called to our
city ordinances, but when an Off
Ger shouts like a Billy Sunday" :"
or someone else who feels he
owns the city, it becomes con-
temptible and should be stopped
Immediately.
A man who is mistreated here
returns home with a very bad i'm
preston of our city.
I wonder if our police were told
that this city, being the property
of the entire nation so far as the
streets are concerned, would not
see the need of approaching a
man in a more dignified way. It
seems that as far as the police
who walk the streets are con-
cerned, they are as fine a set of
men as you will find anywhere,
but the bird who gets a chance TO
straddle a motorcycle seems to
lose his head, and decides he owns
the entire city.
Please don't think me nut on
this subject. If you doubt my
word, drive your car down on F
or G Street any day about $50 or
3:55, then park for a minute or so,
and see how the claw" informs
you about the 4-to-6 parking regu-
lations. Listen to his tone of
voice, especially if your car hap
pens to be one of several years
vintage. The older the car, the
louder the "squall." Or try Sev-
enth Street about the same time
you will get "squalled" at loud
enough to make your ears ring for
several minutes.
It is a disgrace to the city of
Washington and should be stopped
at once. VESTER WHITE.

LONG ENEMIES

Bitter Political Fight On;
Lives Threatened, Say
Two Sub-LeaderS.

By United Press
BATON ROUGE, La, Sept. 13.-
Louisiana Democrats leaped at one
another's throats today, just IL
hours after Huey Pierce Long was
buried in the shadow of his state
capitol before a throng of 100000
Long sub-leaders announced they
had received death threats. Anti
Long forces intimated that the an
nouDcements were part of an at
tempt to prove that Longs assassi-
nation was the result of well pre-
medltated plot Of Longs principal
political enemies.
One anti-Long leader issued a
blasting statement, demanding COM
plete overthrow of the dictatorship

Gov. o. K. Allen and the rest of

ceived from distressed home owners
In the first month of operation, IL
loans were closed, 81 in the second
month and 1875 in the third month
until production of closing loan;
reached a maximum Of 225 day at
the time the suspension notice was
received Nov. Is, 1884
As a result of this activity the
corporation has closed loans on
$4,000 homes and has diSburseo
S101, 738,004l0 to the banks, build
ing and loan associations and pri-
vate lending institutions of the
state.
When the stop order" was lifted
on May 81, 1885, and authorization
was given to proceed with all cases
that had been held in allegiance and
also to accept new applications for
30-day period, only 3402 new ap-
plications were received-far below
the number anticipated.
This indicated that the HOLC
had removed all possible distressed
properties which had constituted
the frozen assets of banks, build
ing and loan associations, insur-
ance companies and other private
lending agencies.
As a result of the hundred million
dollars that had been disbursed to
these lenders, they were in a posi-
ton to rewrite, renew, or carry the
delinquent mortgagor.
Our days of enormous produc-
ton are over" Mr.. Mckinney said.
From now on the personnel grad
ually will be changed into a collec-
ton and servicing organization.
The success of this department will
rest upon the inherent honesty of
the borrowers from the corporation
in Indiana. However, the execu-
tiveS Of the corporation recognize
that many of these home owners are
still unemployed and unable to make
payments in full at the present
time.
Such cases will receive careful
consideration and every effort will
be made to aid the individual to re-
turn to his normal financial position
in the community without the sac
rifice Of his home.
However, 568 foreclosure proceed
ings have been instituted by the
corporation against delinquent Dor
rowers throughout the country.
Twenty-Five of these are in In
diana"

Mental Hygiene Idea
 Born In Connecticut
Movement Started By Clifford Beers in 1908, New
 State Director Tells Tercentenary Listeners

Connecticut should be proud both because it is the birthplace of the worldwide mental hygiene move- ment and because 1t is the home of one of the greatest medical centers which is particularly well known for its progressive program in tho field of mental health, Dr. James M. Cunningham, director of the bureau of mental hygiene of the state department of. health, de- clared today in closing the de- partment's series of Il tercenten- ary broadcasts.
 Dr. Cunningham took charge of the mental hygiene bureau only little more than 0 month ago, and this was the first time that he has addressed the people of Connecti- cut.
 The mental hygiene movement, he said, began with the organiza- tion of the first mental hygiene so- ciety of New Haven in 1908. Cliff ford Beers, himself a victim of mental disorder. was responsible for this organization. Through the wide influence of his book, "A Mind That Found Itself," the interest of many people has been stimulated in the movement. The national committee for mental hygiene was organized in 1909 and the inter national organization was effected in 1880. During the past quarter of a century, many local societies have been formed, departments of mental hygiene have been estab- lished in state governmnts, and other formal organizations have been effected.
 Mental hygiene was first con cerned with the improvement of the conditions of care and treat ment of persons suffering from mental disorders" Dr. Cunning ham stated. This was originally directed toward the alleviation of those conditions which prevailed in public and private institutions whose function was the care of such individuals. Much has been accomplished in this direction and Connecticut has made progress along these lines in step with sim liar improvements in other parts of the country.
 "The mental hygiene movement early recognized the need for pre- vention of mental diseases. This has been attacked in two directions -one through extensive education
The Waterbury Democrat., 1935-09-26

tional program. Private psychi- artists well informed laymen, staff members of private and public in- stitutions and the bureau of mental hygiene have all contributed to this adult edcational program.
 "An important part of the pre- vention program has been the de- velopment of clinical resources within the borders of the state to meet the needs and growing de- mands for the treatment and pre- vention of personality and be- havior disorders. Considerable progress has been achieved in this"
The Waterbury Democrat., 1935-09-26

al progress, and the other through
 the building up of clinical facili- ties for diagnosing and treating personality and behavior difficult ties. Connecticut, throughout the past quarter of century, has done much to educate the people of the state regarding the facts of mental disease, and this educational pro- gram has done much to remove a great many of the prejudices. su- perstitions and misconceptions re- garding diseases of the mind. The Connecticut Mental Hygiene society has been one of the chief organ izations interested in this educa-
