DR.. 0verhoIser Urges
Psychiatric Training
For Personnel Chiefs

Government and business person.
mel officers should have some actual
clinical training as a means Of
enabling them to recognize incipient
emotional difficulties in employees,
DR.. Winfred Overholser, superin-
tendent OF, st. Elizabeths Hospital,
declared yesterday, .-..... .,. ~.
DR.. Overhplser spoke at meeting
of the Society for Personnel Admin
istration at the YWCA, Seventeenth
and K streets NV. Civil Service
Commissioner Arthur S. Flemming
and Robert C. Goodwin, director of
the United States Employment
Service, also spoke.
Job Shifts Suggested.
Sometimes mere change In
working conditions may solve a
psychiatric case at its start" DR..
Overholser explained. "a personnel
officer properly trained along these
lines would not only be doing a
humanitarian act for the individual
involved but would also be saving
the Government or business firm
money"
Many theological seminaries are
sending their students to institu-
tons for training in dealing with
people having emotional difficulties,
DR.. Overholser pointed out, adding
that the training of personnel Of
fcers generally was inclined to be
too theoretical.
Few Facilities Here.
He advocated the inclusion of psy-
chiatric consultation facilities in
any health service Congress may
approve for Government agencies.
The psychiatrist also declared the
District had a singular lack of psy-
chiatric facilities outside of institu-
tions" and urged a system of con-
sulting agencies be supported.
Mr.. Flemming agreed with DR..
Overholser there was greater need
for the Government to recognize
these symptoms in its employees and,
where possible, to shift them to po-
sitions which would aid in combat
ting the condition.
Mr.. Goodwin pointed out that
people believe a man is either nor
man or nuts" and fail to allow for
the twilight gray zone" of persons
who are mentally Ill but not so
much so as to need disqualification.

Senate Group Seeks
To Save Jobs Of 1,4OO
In Customs Bureau
By Joseph YOUNG

Chairman Aiken of the Senate
Expenditures Committee today an.
nounced his group will investigate
the Treasury Departments Customs
Bureau to determine how the agen-
cy can, effect savings by "othel
means" instead of firing nearly l..
400 members of its Border Patro
and Port Control Divisions. eh
"We are going to investigate the
necessity for legislation to remedy
what appears to be Implications o1
functions in the bureau" Senator
Aiken declared.
Customs Bureau officials were
summoned to testify tomorrow or
what economy measures the agency
can put in effect to avoid dismissine
the 1,400 employees. The bureau an.
nounced the 1,400 dismissals woulc
have to be made after the House
cut its original budget estimates by
$3,500,000.
Restoration of Funds Sought.
Customs officials appealed last
week to the Senate Appropriations
Committee to restore the funds
slashed by the House, asserting that
otherwise they would have no other
alternative than dismissing many
customs border and port patrol en-
ployes. This would lead to an out
break of smuggling and reduce the
Governments revenue, the officials
contended.
Meanwhile. Treasury Department
officials continued their testimony
before Senate appropriations sub
committee in an attempt to persuade
the Senate to restore House cuts.
Secret Service officials were called
to explain why they want the Senate
to restore a $500 House reduction
from the agency's budget estimate
of S3,465, 100.
Chairman Gordon of the subcom-
mittee has questioned Treasury Off
cials closely on what steps they have
taken to effect economy in the past,
and what their economy plans are
for the future.
Collection Costs Stressed.
So far, Treasury officials have en-
phasized that the Department is the
one which collects all of the Gov
ernment's revenues. and that if its
appropriations are reduced drasti-
cally, it will collect far less revenue.
Secret Service officials have de-
clared the House bill would neces-
state such sharp reduction OF
it's personnel that "it would be a
windfall for the criminal and a dis
aster for law enforcement" The
House measure slashed $500, ,000, ,00C
from the Treasury's original esti-
mate for all its functions.
Joseph D. Nunan, jr., commits
sioner of internal revenue, who
yesterday told the subcommittee
he is amazed at the dishonesty
practiced by so many Americans in
filing income-tax returns, was re-
called for additional questioning to-
day. Mr.. Nunan. declared it is alb
solutely essential that his staff of
27,000 tax enforcement agents not
be cut.

Senator Mcclellan, Democrat,
of Tennessee held. the Senate
floor today under a no-limit de-
batting rule which. could permit
him to head of until next week

Snator McKellar, Mr.. Lilienthals
foremost senatorial fore, got the
floor late yesterday. He talked
nearly two hours against the noni-
nee, and was still going strong
when the chamber quit for the day.
He can talk as long as he wants
under Senate rules and his col
leagues estimated he would speak
"at least" two hours today. They
conceded he might continue longer.
having In mind his tenacity as a.
guest questioner of witnesses dur
ing nearly six weeks OF open hear
ings which the. Senate Atomic
Energy Committee held on the COM
mission nominations.
Meanwhile, Democratic strategists
supporting Mr.. Lilienthal's conf1r-
nation delayed a preliminary test
vote at least until tomorrow. When
the test comes, it will be on a

Chinese Reds Drive
To Within is Miles
OF Capital Of Honan
BY the A.soeio.ed Pres.

& ~
NANKING, April 1.-The Chinese
Communists have opened q surprise
drive in North China which has car
ried to within 16 miles of Kaifeng,
Honan province capital. the news
paper Hsin Min Pao said today.
The newspaper declared that
while $4,000 Communist troops
punched down from the north. an
estimated 10000 others massed IS
miles south Of the city and were
probing government defenses.
The newspaper, quoting military
sources In Kaifeng, asserted a de-
cisive battle was believed looming
for the city.
The attack overran Fengkiu, 16
miles north of Kaifeng, and nearby
Yentsin, both part OF the capitals
northern defenses, Hsin Min Pao
said.
Threat Aimed at Railroad.
Without explanation, it said these
attackers were believed to have in
filtrated Honan from Manchuria
(which would have to be by way of
neighboring Shantung province,
where the Communists are strong )
The newspaper pictured govern
ment reinforcements as rushing to
the Hsinhsiang area, As miles south
OF Kaifeng, where the stronger
Communist force was making
threatening gestures.
The threat from the south ap-
peared to be aimed at section of
the north-south Peiping- g-Hankow
railroad. Gen. Wang Ling -yun's
government troops took positions
south of Hsinhsiang defending q
concrete bridge on the railroad.
In Shensi Province government
forces were reported to have cap
tured Tsingkien, so miles northeast
of the fallen Communist capital of
Yenan, after a bitter duel with Red
troops. The heaviest fighting of the
Shensi campaign was expected soon
around Wayaopao, so miles north
Of Yenan, where see-saw battling
has been going on.
Officers Still Held.
Brig. Gen. Robert Soule, American
military attache, said steady pres
sure on Chinese Communist leaders
for the release of two assistant at
tacl1es seized one month ago had
been without result.
Maj. Robert Rigg of Chicago and
Capt. j. w. Collins of Evanston, Ill,
were seized by Communists north of
Changchun, Manchurian capital,
March 1. The American Embassy
and military officials have been un-
able to establish direct contact with
them.
Gen. Soule said the capture of
Yenan, Communist capital, by gov
ernment troops eliminated the direct
link with Communist Military
Comdr. Chu Teh, who earlier had
promised that Maj. Rigg and Capt.
Collins would be taken to Harbin,
Manchuria, and released when the
time is Judged right"

Paul's marriage to Princess Fred

acouaint themselves with support
prices and, when a buyer bids eb-
low the support prices, call e

port prices and get the highest
