GROUP Will FIGHT
INSANITY STIGMA
End of Court Procedure Is
First Objective of
Cured Patients.

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Oct. 28.-A group Of
persons cured of insanity pressed their
campaign today for a normal place
in society after a unique public meet
ing at which their objectives were
outlined.
The fight to erase the stigma un-
justifiably attached to such persons
was undertaken by former patients
Of the University Of Illinois Psychiatric
Institute.
Last night they opened their public
campaign with speeches and discus
sions before more than 400 persons,
including representatives of civic Or
ganizations, friends and relatives. The
meeting was sponsored by the Psychiat-
ric Institute and the State Department
Of Public Welfare.
Would End Court Procedure.
The termination of court procedure
in committing mental patients to pub
lie hospitals was announced as
major objective of the organized group.
Open court files, the former patients
contended, contain records of their
affliction long after they have been
cured
Two former patients, one business
man, the other an attractive woman,
addressed the meeting The business
man said he remained an exile from
his home town because of the stigma
he felt was attached to him.
Before my recovery" he said, Il
suffered from delusions of self -depre-
citation, and when I was ordered to a
State hospital by judge and delivered
there by sheriff the law verified my
delusion. Now I cannot return to
my home town"
Says Many Financially Ruined.
The woman speaker said many per-
sons suffer financial ruin by going to
costly private sanatoria for treatment
rather than risk the publicity of a
court commitment to public insti-
tuition.
The father of IA year old boy who
suffered mental breakdown, declared
the present court procedure jeopardized
the patients chances for recovery.
Often time was lost in beginning
urgently needed treatment, he ex-
planned, because relatives of the patient
postponed the distasteful task of going
to court.
