Proper Care Of Mentally III
Veterans Explained at Meeting

The hostess approached 3 sailol
at one OF those home parties fol
wounded servicemen and askec
pleasantly why he had been In
the hospital.
I'm psychoneurotic," he respond
ed just as pleasantly.
The hostess murmured something
about greeting other guests and
hurried OF. The sailor gave the
same response to few other women
at the party and got the same re-
action. Pretty soon he found him.

That boy doesn't tell the truth
any more because he knows now
he'll be misunderstood" said Comdr.
Dana L. Farnsworth, U. S. N, assist
ant chief of the neuro- -psychiatric
service at the Naval Medical Center
as she told the story yesterday at a
meeting of the Council of Social
Agencies division Of family and
child welfare.
Plain Truths.
Comdr. Farnsworth and the two
other speakers-Miss Margaret Ha-
gan Of the American Red Cross and
DR.. Addison Duval of st. Elizabeth's S
Hospital-were determined to put
across some plain truths about the
public's reception of the men COM
ing back from combat. They par
ticularly attacked the idea that
men confined to an institution
for mental illness are incurable.
They explained what the men have
gone through, what they want and
how they can be helped.
Comdr. Farnsworth read a few
excerpts from case histories of naval
aviators:
Il often had dabbled with the
idea of sudden dive into a Jap

|ABC Board Head
To Detail Operations

Chairman Alan w. Payne OF the
Alcoholic Beverage Control Board
said yesterday he had Informed
Chairman Coffee of the House Sub
committee on District Appropria-
tions that the board would be gald
to furnish detailed information OF
its operations and recalled that the
annual reports Of the board had been
shortened in recent years at the
Commissioners request.
Mr.. Payne made his statement in
reply to 4 letter from Mr.. Coffee
complaining that the boards report
Of last year was inadequate" Mr..
Coffee said that his committee
should have detailed reports avail
able for hearings on the 1916 budget
so Congress and the people of
Washington will know whether your
board has earned its salt"
Explaining that his board Is short

take place Ia April.
Mr.. Coffee said he wanted to know
exactly how many violations o1
Liquor regulations were handled

tions have been and the penalties
invoked: whether the number o1
package goods sales licenses have
been reduced appreciably from 4Ot

Il thought that I probably would
get killed and often told myself
that I was too tired to wait longer
but was determined to take down

II knew that I didn't have a
chance to get home. My plane was
badly shot up and my gunner dead
or unconscious. did not want to die
but was not afraid. 1t was mag

turned and used my front guns,

worth pointed out. They were given
understanding, but not sympathy.
Everything was explained to them,
every new crisis was weathered.
They're not having nightmares any
more but, Comdr. Farnsworth add
ed, ''the kind of reception that
sailor got would have substantially
delayed their recovery"
Explains Misconceptions.
At this point, DR.. Duval, senior
medical officer at st. Elizabeth's s,
took over to explain the kind Of
misconceptions which inspire the
reception the hostess gave the
sailor.
He listed these dos and dor, 'ts
for families of all veterans:
Be tolerant of 4 veterans un-
easiness, his inability to relax. II
he can't sit in a movie for more
than IS minutes before he wants
to go on to another one. go with
him. Adjust to his immediate
needs.
Don't quiz him about his horror
experiences. Let him tell what he
wants to tell and keep the rest to
himself.
Don't encourage him to act like a
hero. Help him to understand that
what he's done has been very
courageous but it takes just as
much courage to be good civilian
as good serviceman.
Miss Hagan, who has Travelled on
hospital ships as assistant to the
director OF hospital services, Mill
tary and Naval Welfare Service,
Red Cross, shifted the discussion to
the social workers who made up
the audience.
The techniques of social work
have become so clumsy-we have to
know so much about q person be-
fore we can smile at him." she
said. 1T We get 30 preoccupied with
technique that we fail to be flex-
ible, warm-hearted people with q
sense Of humor, we're going to fail
with these men"
She suggested that the social
workers as well as everybody else
would find 1t much easier to reach
the men If they had some knowl-
edge of where they had been and
what they had done there. For
the social workers particularly, she
suggested reading books on the war
instead OF literature Of their pro-
fession.
