MENTAL PATIENTS
LACK GOOD CARE
Retiring Preside nt OF
Psychiatric Association
Blasts Hospitals

NEW YORK, May 19.-(P)eLack
of decent care FOR mental patients
in some state h p a S was
charged today by DR.. Samuel W.
Hamilton, retiring president of the
American Psychiatric Association,
which opened its annual meeting
here.
He S a i d inadequate legislative
appropriations for state operated
mental hospitals were partly re-
sponsible.
Food, clothing, bathing facili-
ties, a measure Of privacy-partic-
ularly for women" he said "all
these topics need more attention
in too many Institutions"
Food in mental hospitals, he
added, is an example of inexcusa-
BILE neglect. Allotted salaries are
not high enough to attract COM
petent cooks and dietitians.
Thousands" he added, never
even have a knife or fork, because
a great state is too poor to buy
them, or so it is said. In the hoSoi-
tails. Some of them go to jail,
some are locked up in almshouses
and others are locked up at home.
It is distressing to see this return
OF ancient abuses, and especially
disquieting to those of us who
thought they are out of date and
abolished"
DR.. Hamilton praised the work
of the federal government in par
ticipating in efforts of the Ameri-
can Psychiatric association to pro-
vide better mental hospitals.

the men of heroic size. If you
doubt this, all you have to do to be
convinced is take a look at the
names of the men who guided this
country in its early and toughest
years. You'll find few hghtweights
in the list.
Now, thanks to the delightful
strides science has taken, anyone
who can grin while catching a fish
or smile while posing milking q
COW, or has radio voice that COM
bines the soothing qualities OF
babies cough syrup, automatically
becomes Presidential timber.
What, No Radio Voice?
1t has long puzzled me why the
fact that Mr.. Truman doesn't have
a great radio voice is held against
him. I have read a million times
about how Mr.. Truman's chances of
being reelected are jeopardized by
his inability to purr and coo over
the radio. What in the world has a
radio voice got to do with running
a great country?
After all, if that is all-important
why not choose any of the TOO an
nouncers you can name? Bing
Crosby, Fred Allen and Henry Nor
gan have an ease at the mike which
would make all politicians sound
cold, scared and very formal.
don't think that Abraham Lincoln
would have been easy, gracious and
warm over the radio. He probably
would have coughed, left dead sec
onds on the air and been entirely
uncomfortable. But would you have
swapped Lincoln for Ted Husing,

run again. No one pretends to
inside information but the appar-
ent absence of political interest on
Mr.. Truman's part is widely
stressed.
1t is seen in his. refusal to do
any campaigning of any variety
and in his disregard of political
usage in making important appoint
ments. The professionals insist that
the Administration does about as
it pleases with its plums with the
President setting the example.
Weight To Speculations.
Given weight to these specula-
tions are the Presidents complaints
about his burdens and problems
which he says forlornly are the
greatest any peacetime President
ever faced. Some of his callers de-
part with the feeling that he would
not care greatly If he lost his job,
Should the President withdraw,
the New Dealers will try to steal
Gen. Eisenhower from the COP
They are naturally tepid about Mr..
Truman as he rather noticeably
dispensed with their services. That
he has also been reasonably faith
full to the Roosevelt program does
not appease them; they say his
people can't and won't carry 1t out.
Chief Justice Vinson is a favorite
of many should Mr.. Truman decide
not to make the race. The Chief
Justice not only likes his present
place but he is an expert politician
who surely would calculate that one
very carefully.

On the Other Hand
Three Rings in the Coming Circus
And the Ring to Watch Is Third

Federal judge, Simon H. Rifkind,
instructed a grand jury in its duties.
"Of late" he said, I'VE have wit
messed the intrusion of other agen-
cies into the field of the grand jury,
who undertake to participate in the
delicate business of accusation.
These agencies - Congressional
committees-have no such tradition
as that which sanctifies the work of
the grand jury. They have no law
given responsibilities. They are
armed with no safeguard against
the play Of passion and clamor.
They have no rules Of evidence, no
rule of probable causes. Rumor,
gossip, suspicion are admissible in
gradients of their deliberations. No
judicial tribunal stands ready at
hand to curb excessive zeal and to
protect those entitled to protection
under our laws"
Before the coming inquisition is
concluded the group in the third
ring are pretty certain to agree that
the Federal judge said mouthful.
