The slow movement is no less
unrestrained if considerably less

anticlimax, although both Pro-

to whip up some excitement IN

Mr.. Bernstein will conduct the

be guest conductor again with

It also provides for outright
grants of money over a 10-year
period to enable the territory to
gradually assume the full finan-
cial support of the program.
While the bill proposes a sum
of $6,500,00O for construction of

at is possible" he said, that no
single big hospital would be built,
but that units in several hospitals
might be equipped for mental pa
tents"
Application for Republication
Under the terms of the bill, ap-
plication for disqualification may
be made by the patient, a friend,
relative or guardian, health, well
fare or police officer, but the pa
tient must be examined by Ii
censed physician to determine his
needs for care or treatment.
A patient may be brought to the
hospital by an officer if he is dan

medical examination by a licensed
physician determines that hoSpit-
alization is required for his own
and others safety. His legal
guardian or other interested par

Health Commissioner Outlines
Provisions of Mental Health Act

JUNEAU, Apr. 2-The Alaska
Mental Health Act now before the
us, Senate provides for good pro-
cedureS for the territory'S mental
health program and criticisms of
it in the states appear to be based
on misconceptions of the bills
content, DIR. Charles R. Hayman,
acting commissioner of health,
commented this week. The bill has
passed in the House of Represen-
tatives.
First of all, DR.. Hayman pointed
out, the proposed act provides for
modern commitment and medical
treatment procedures for the
mentally i'll instead of the present
methods in which a patient is ap-
pretended by law officers, placed
in Jail, charged with being insane,
and tried by a jury of laymen.
Alaska Has Responsibility
1t gives to Alaska the response
bility and authority for hospitali-
cation, care and treatment of its
mentally i'll in place of the distant
federal government in Washing
ton, whose Interior Department
has determined the disposition of
the territory'S insane" since 1912.
1t makes Alaska's governor adj
miniStrator of the mental health
program with power to delegate
the authority to the appropriate
territorial agency.
The proposed mental health
act, DR.. Hayman continued, has
broad provisions for humane COM
mitment and release, medical di-
agnosis, treatment and care, both
in and out-patient care, self APP
plication for disqualification by an
individual seeking help, petition
for release from a mental hospital,
periodic review of cases by a Ii
censed physician, and many other
procedures for the protection and
aid of the mentally i'll.

Odd Job Man Jailed
For Threatening to
Assassinate Eisenhower

DENVER, PA 35-year-old
mine caretaker was in jail here
today after falling to make
$1,000 bond on a federal charge
of threatening President Eisen-
hower's life.
The man was identified as Sam
Stepp of Inez, KY, by Earl E.
School, head of the Denver secret
service office.
Stepp was quoted by reporters
as saying, 81 only called the FBl
to warn them the President of the
United States may be assassinated.
4 was worried"
Schoell, however, said Stepp de
clared Monday night in a hotel
bar at Buena Vista, Colo, in dis
cussing the President, that "if l
ever got close enough to him I'll
kill him. I have a .30-.30 bullet
for him"
Stepp was arrested at Glen
wood Springs, Colo, Wednesday
after a statewide alarm was broad
cast for him.
He said ne arrived at his pres
ent Job March "a and before that
had worked at odd jobs through
out the country.

Russia Accepts
Basic Idea Of
Open Skies Plan

LONDON, R-Moscow radio
said Saturday Russia has accepted
the basic idea of President Eisen-
hower's "open skies" aerial in
spection plan and has proposed a
three-month arms freeze to be
followed by all-around cuts in
conventional arms and armies.
Meanwhile, all hydrogen Weap-
on tests would be banned.
The Russian proposal, as out
lined by the official Soviet news
agency Tass, calls for immediate
agreement on reducing conven-
tional ornaments. The Soviets say
this step will facilitate agree
ment on prohibition of atomic and
thermonuclear weapons and their
removal from national arma-
mentS."
Russia made its proposal at the
five power United Nations dis
armament talks in London, now
starting their third week. The
US, Britain, France and Canada
also are represented.

exercise of civil rights, and OF
communication and visits with
friends and relatives shall be re-
tanned by the patient.
1t also states that improved pa
tients may be placed on conva-
descent status with plans for treat
ment on an out-patient basis by
the hospital or under the direction
of licensed physician. 1t provides
for denomination of the case at
least annually and for discharge
upon determination by the hospi-
tai head that the patients condi-
ton so permits.
Contains Reciprocal Agreement
The bill also contains provisions
for care of AlaSkans in other state
hospitals and care of out-of-State
patients in Alaska hospitals on a
reciprocal and reimbursable basis.
This is a common procedure,
DR.. Hayman pointed out, since
legal residents of one state often
become acutely i'll while visiting
or working in another state. I'm
der this reciprocal procedure, the
acutely i'll patient may receive i'm
mediate disqualification and his
treatment may proceed without
delay.
In the case of patients from 9th
er states, the bill gives AlaSka's
governor authority to return the
patient to the state of which he is
a resident. If the patient or his
guardian refuse to consent to this
return, the governor may order
the patients discharge from the
hospital unless he is Ger
titled by the head of the hospital
to be dangerous to himself or to
others, whereupon the governor
may have proceedings initiated
for judicial disqualification and
return to the state of
his residence.

Ohio soil conservation districts

today by Attorney General G..
William O'Neill.
In an opinion requested by F.
f. Heft, Secretary of the Ohio
Soil Conservation Committee,
O'Neill pointed out that soil con-
servation and erosion prevention
measures are vitality necessary
to any complete system Of flood
prevention, and concluded that
the close relationship between
conservation and flood preven-
ton measures was such as to
authorize a local soil conserva-
ton district to undertake par
ticular projects which as a whole
involve substantial benefits in
soil conservation and prevention
of soil erosion.
