Milford chronicle., 1956-07-20

What is the problem of retarded
children? AS important as other
childhood afflictions are, relative
ly little is known by The public
about mental retardation. For ex-
ample, figures show that out of
every 10000 children born in the
United State, 20 are blind, 80 are
struck 10y polio, 35 by cerebral
palsy, 20 have rheumatic heart
conditions, and 300 have some de-
gree of mental retardationi This
means that 300 mentally retarded
children are born a day in this
country. Although there has yet
been no official survey in Delaware,
it is estimated there are presently
1000 mentally retarded in the state
and that 800 mentally retarded
children are being added to the
state each year.
Mental retardation should not
be confused with mental illness. A
mentally i'll person had a sound
mind which has deteriorated-lik
a cracked cement wall. A mentally
retarded child has a mind which
will never fully develnr like a
wall left unfinished. IN me1ltal ill
ness. there is hope. for a cure. In
mental retardation there is no
known cure.
Medical authorities say that men,
tai retardation occurs at pre-birth,
during birth or after birth. 1t knows
no class, creed, or color Experts
believe that causes number at least
seventy. But there can be improve
ment through training and educa-
ton. Each child has some poten-
ton. Each child has some poten-
come constructive, useful citizens.
Three years ago the Delaware
Association for Retarded Children
started with 1913; with the help of
many persons and organizations, it
met its Kutner School expenses of
$4,000. In 1854, Delaware citizens
gave more attention to the cause,
some $4,000 was raised. In 1855
community awareness increased.
The Journal Every Evening ran
six front page articles. The Jay
Gees raised over $4,000. The New
Century Club, Junior Section, or

ganized 5000 women volunteers,
and rang doorbells to raise nearly
$4,000. Many other organizations
and individual volunteers helped
in many ways. The 1855 contribu-
tions total approximately $65,000.
The needs for dealing with this
public problem are many and ur-
gent. The Association hopes to
make the Kutner School which now
trains approximately so children
a year an example for the state. 1t
is encouraging special classes in
schools( as in other states) and
specially trained teachers for those
classes. 1t hopes to help fucus at
tentiOn on needs in the state as
illustrated by recent improvements
at the Delaware Hospital for Men
tally Retarded at Stockley. 1t has
among its detectives an interest in
developing a diagnostic and guild
ance center and sheltered work
shop for the physically and men
tally neutrality-suspicious. of which
exist at the present time.
The money which will be raised
by the first All-Star Football Game
is truly needed. But most import
ant is the public enlightment which
the event will bring, understand
ing and help to thousands of Della
wares retarded children and their
families for years to come.
The purpose of the athletic event
by Delaware's selected high school
football graduates is exemplified
by the slogan under which they
will participate, 1--WE Play That
They May Learn.

Jury 10 Ponder
Airline Murder

DENVER, May 4 (P.-The
States charge that John Gilbert
Graham killed his mother and
43 others by blowing up an air
liner is ready for elaboration
by seven men and five women
Jurors.
All evidence was completed
yesterday in the case charging
the 24-year-old defendant with
stuff1ng a 25-stick dynamite time
bomb in the suitcase of his pros
porous parent, Mrs. Daisie E.
King, IS.
She died in the explosion of
a United Air Lines plane last
November / near Longmont,
Colo, IL minutes after taking
of from Denver.
Final Arguments Due
Final arguments by State and
defense attorneys and instruc-
tons by the court will be given
the jury today before it begins
deliberations.
The defense rested after less
than three hours of testimony
that presented eight witnesses
and Is exhibits.
Graham did not take the stand
before the jury. Previously he
testified In the absence of the
jury that his confession to the
FBI was not true-that 1t was
given under a threat the FBI
was going to arrest his wife,
Gloria, %. for lying.
Three of the defense witnesses
testified that Graham was in
Denver last october %. That
was the day a country store
keeper fixed as the probable date
he sold 40 or IS sticks" of dyna-
mite to Graham.
Wife's Parents Testify
Two Of the witnesses were Mr..
and Mrs. Roy Elson, parents of
Graham's wife.
All of the jurors said before
they were accepted that they
would consider the death penalty
lin the proper case" The
courts instructions will include
that the jury consider first de-
gree murder punishable by
death or life imprisonment. The
penalty Is fixed by the jury.
In contrast to the brief defense
case, the prosecution presented
rs witnesses and more than 1870
exhibits. The latter included
bits of the plane wreckage which
an FBI scientist said were coated
with residue from exploded
dynamite"
