Down on the green drill fields

Dr.. Lindsey revealed that for
the last two and a half years
so chronic and acutely psychotie
children and adults in the Metro
politan State Hospital at Boston
have been run through this series
of mechanical tests. Fifteen
normal persons were also studied
to provide contrast and show that

lous rooms to measure the be-
havior of persons in an effort to
better understand mental illness
particularly chronic schiZo-
lphrenia.
The theory is that the patient
will learn that by performing 9
certain act at a certain time he
will be rewarded with cigarette
or a piece of candy. This is
reminiscent of the guinea pig
that is taught to push a button
with his nose for food. or pigeons
that have been taught to play

Not Ready for Mass Use
In most mental hospitals a
large percentage of patients are
actually beyond the scope of oral
testing. "Psychiatrists believe
they may have a certain dis
order" Dr.. Lindsey said, "but
they are not necessarily positive
of its exact nature"
"We hope to make up for this
deficiency by exact behavioral
measurements" he added.
DR.. Lindley, who said the pro-
cess was largely developed by
Harvard's DR.. B. F. Skinner, de-
clared it may take 10 or more
years before the process is ready
for mass use by psychiatrists.

If privately owned transit
companies are to continue to
serve cities needs, IAN entirely
different set of circumstances
will have to be provided" an ex-
pert said yesterday.
Keneth Hoover. director of the
washington areas mass transit
survey now in progress, said
private transit, operating under
public utilities commissions and
under "precepts and controls out
dated by changing economic and
physical conditions" is being
strangled to death.
Mr.. Hoover's statement was
made in talk before the Ameri-
can Society for Public Admins
tration in the Hotel Statler. 1t
came at time when there was a
renewed move in Congress to
find a way to avoid public transit
ownership in the Capital.
Better Conditions Asked
Nearly all groups that have
sought to succeed to the Capital
Transit Co.'s franchise have cou-
pied their applications with a
stipulation for more favorable
conditions.
Mr.. Hoover said:
THE combination of decreas-
ing patronage, brought about
primarily by the increasing use
of automobiles and to a degree
by the necessity of increasing
fares. together with the require
ments to meet greatly increased
pay rates and ballooning prices
for equipment and materials, has
produced a situation untenable
for private investment.
las we all know, money. like
people, works where it is paid
best, other conditions being
equal. 1t certainly hasn't been
earning, much in the privately
owned transit industry for quite
a long time and, as is being
demonstrated here in Washing
ton. is pretty coy about coming
out for more.
II am not saying that public
transit cannot be supplied by
private capital and manage
ment, but it is quite apparent
that an entirely different set oi
circumstances will have. to be
provided if it is to do so.
Essential to Cities
"At the same time, after q
period of several years wher
some of us thought we no longer
needed mass transit and that II
would fade away, it is becoming
apparent to an ever-increasine
part of the public, and particu.
