FGa||inger Aide
Says Patients
Strapped 10 Bed
Lack Of Equipment
To Handle Violent
Cases Is Reason
By JAMES E. CHINN.

DR.. Joseph L. Gilbert, chief of
the psychiatric ward at Gallinger
Hospital, admitted today before
the special Senate subcommittee
investigating the hospital, that
violent and dangerous patients
have to be strapped to their beds
because of the lack of modern
special treatment rooms.
He made the admission in We
hemently denying a charge con-
tanned in a letter written to Senator
Bushfield, Republican, of South Da-
kota. The writer, woman, whose
name was not revealed, said she had
seen her husband chained to a bed
in the psychiatric ward and such
treatment constituted torture remi-
niscent of the Middle Ages.
"We don't have chains" declared
Dr. Gilbert. Whoever says so is
distorting the truth. We use leather
straps and wristlets on patients who
are violent and dangerous and have
to be restrained"
Lacks Equipment.
Strapping Of the dangerous pa
tients to beds, DR.. Gilbert explained,
is not an acceptable practice, but it
must be done at Gallinger because
it lacks the facilities of a modern
hospital for treatment and care of
psychiatric cases.
The pSychiatric ward, he pointed
out. is located in one of the Oldest
buildings on the Gallinger reserva-
tion and does not contain special
treatment rooms where violent pa
tients could be handled without
strapping them to beds.
Asked how many patients are now
under restraint at Gallinger, DR..
Gilbert said he had not seen report
today, but yesterday there we're four
or five.
Earlier, Health Officer George C.
Rutland told the subcommittee that
DR.. Edgar A. Bocock, the superin-
tendent. "is jealous and energetic
and assumes more work than one
man should"
Knew Conditions.
At the same time the health officer
declared the hospital management
is well aware" of conditions at
Gallinger and Is doing everything
possible to improve them in the face
of the manpower shortage and war;

By the Associated Press,


Secretary Ickes, asserting his

to the war effort, today accused
Col. Edward A. Fitzpatrick, selec-
tive service official, and Robert
M. Barnett, chairman of the Re
view Committee on Deferment
of Government Employees, of cir
responsible, incompetent and
malicious testimony before
House Military Affairs Subcom-
mittee.
In letter to Chairman Costello
the Secretary said Col Fitzpatrick
exceeded any authority he could
possibly have in his capacity as an
Army officer, a representative of the
selective service. or both"
Mr.. Ickes said Mr.. Barnett ap-
parently succeeded in conveying the
impression that the Interior De-
patrment had requested defernents
for 5000 employees.
The Secretary's letter said that
his department had not asked 5000
deferments nor does it intend to
do So" He added that the depart
ment had requested, as of Septem-
ber IS, 1943, total of 1853 defer

Mr.. Ickes said Col. Fitzpatrick's
Ignorance and incompetence" are
most strikingly demonstrated by his
selection of the map-making activi-
ties of the Geological Survey as his
special target The Secretary said
this map making is primarily a War
Department project, financed by
that agency as direct and impor-
tant contribution" to the war.
Col. Fitzpatrick and Mr. Barnett
testified last Thursday before the

eating deferment of Government
employees from military service.
