Mental Hygiene
Society Starts
Fund Campaign

Mrs. B. Peyton Whalen has
opened her home on old George
town road, Bethesda, as headquar-
ters for the campaign of the the
Montgomery County Mental Hy-
giene Society which is getting
under way this week.
The campaign is for $4,000 to
establish a Psychiatric Clinic for
children and adults. 1t will prob
ably be located in Rockville but
will serve the entire county, with
occasional visits to other Mont
gomery communities as the pro-
gram expands.
At the opening meeting at the
Court House in Rockville, Mrs.
George w. Young, president of
the society introduced Miss Lavinia
Engle, one of the founders of the
society, who stressed the fact that
an urgently needed service is not
provided by already existing coun-
ty agencies.
Mrs. Dorothy Kurt, member of
the executive committee, gave the
history of the organization, which
has provided psychiatric diagnosis
for both children and adults unable
to pay for such service. "But a
diagnosis alone is not enough, -
said Mrs. Kurtz. "Some of our old
people, the blind, the sick, and dis
couraged. and our dependent chill
dren need the prolonged treatment
by specialists in mental and per-
sonality difficulties.
A number of psychiatrists have
donated their services for diagnos-

Grand Jury Would Die Of Many Legal Diseases If
 Fully Revealed VIOLATION OF LAW
 IS NO SELECTION Referring To Harry Minor He Claimed Acorn Had Proven His Innocence
Special to The DemOcrat)

Hartford, November 12.- Attorney Samuel Persky of New Haven, counsel for John s. Johnston and Harry Minor, two of the fourteen men con- victed in the Waterbury con- Spiracy trial whose appeals are being heard before the Superme Court of Connecti- cut, continued his charges before this body today that the Waterbury conspiracy trial was based on illegalities and that as a consequence its finds and results are also illegal.
 Early this afternoon he said that the report by the illegally-created grand jury was the instrument Special States Attorney Hugh M. Alcorn of Hartford used for prose- cution and that without this jury there would have been no informa- tion.
 He said that only few of the diseases of which this grand jury would die of were ." it was selected in violation of common law: it was not selected by sheriff but by the Special States Attor- ney and his assistants; four mem bers of 1t were not freeholders; de- fendants had to testify under com pulsion; the defendants had to tes- tify under an oath of secrecy and could not even inform their counsel of what transpired in the jury room; defendants were not warned their evidence might be used against them =.
 Alcorn's Needs Recalled
 Referring directly to the charges against MT. Minor Atty. Persky said that the state charged he did not perform the services for which he was paid $l2,000 and that the mayor had no authority to hire him and that the Corporation Counsel did not know he was hired.
 Atty. Persky claimed these claims were refuted by the very fact that the Assistant Prosecutor, Hugh M. Alcorn. Jr, told the jury that the Waterbury charter virtually set its mayor up as a czar and that the mayor had the power to do what he wanted which was sufficient to prove the point above. He said that it was not up to the defense to prove the wisdom of the charter but that the mayor lived up to it and that there was no real proof that Minor hadn't performed the services for which he was paid.
 He also said that for the state MT Alcorn asked James F. Purcell, while a witness, if he knew what Minors services were and that the witness had replied in the negative. That. according to Minors counsel. was the beginning and end of the attempt to prove that Minor had not performed services for which he pas paid. whereas in its presenta-
