to manufacture Mr.. White:
kitchen inventions.
Mr.. Foley said he became
interested because he thought
this was the type of product
that would qualify for manu-
featuring under the depressed
areas bill. When he found
that Starco's membership in
cluded inventors OF nine pat
ented new products, he ap-
preached the Economic Devel-
opment Commission of Hagers-
town with a proposal to start
manufacturing the new pro-
ducts with loans under the de-
pressed areas law. That, he
said, was his principal interest
in Starco. The name, he ex-
planned, is an abbreviation OF
Sunray Tower and Renewal
Co., Inc.
He said Mr.. Vickers enlisted
the inventors in Starco with
his housing proposals. He said
the inventors were interested
because their products would
have an immediate market il
the apartment for unattached
and older persons became a
reality.
When he entered the picture
he said, the membership of the
board included the inventors
and mostly older women whose
concern was housing. The
board, he added, was recently
expanded to 80 directors.
Mr.. Foley said he understood
the membership dues of the
Housing Foundation are the
basic source of revenue for
Starco which is the agent for
the Housing Foundation to
build the apartment.
Role Of Mclaughlin
Mr. Foley said former Com
missioner Mclaughlin was
brought into the picture last
spring by a former Navy as
sociate, Capt. S. N. Ferris
Luboshez. The retired Navy
captain, who is also a lawyer
and inventor, asked the then
Commissioner Mclaughlin to
study Starco and give him a
report.
The former legislator said
Mr.. Mclaughlin had no formal
connection with the operation
but is in the process of study
ing it.
"The proposal was for Mr..
Mclaughlin to help on the
FILA loan application" Mr..
Foley explained. He was to
focus on the apartment and I
on the products"
He added that he and the
inventors have gotten nothing
out of Starco and that If the
manufacturing plan is ap-
proved in Hagerstown, a new
corporation would be formed
to license the products.

40 GOATS, SHEEP
EAT SELVES OUT
OF HOUSE, HOME

RoCHES Err, N. Y.
(AP). - Forty sheep and
goats at Lollypop Farm,
an animal refuge operated
by the Humane Society of
Rochester. have eaten
themselves out of their
house and home.
c. Raymond Naramore,
executive director of the
society, decreed the sheep
and goats must be sold
after learning that three
deer, originally thought to
be poisoned, had died of
malnutrition.
He said goats and sheep
had crowded the deer from
the feed trough. Segrega-
ton Of the animals would
be impractical, he added.
Mr.. Naramore said the
goats and sheep would be
replaced by better-man-
nered deer. burros and
llamas.

Mr.. Mclaughlin, asked about
his connection with the project,
said he had been studying the
proposed project with the hope
that "in this way. we could
effect a breakthrough in lower
middle income housing"
Il still have it under study, +"
he added, land will confer
further with Mr.. Vickers early
in the week."
Mr.. Fagelson, whose family's
land is up for rezoning on the
new project. introduced the
Starco representatives at the
August hearings. Asked about
his role in the project, Mr..
Fagelson said:
MY family has owned the
property for over a quarter
century. We always wanted to
use it for some special purpose.
Over the last five years, we have
had many suggestions for its
use but we wanted to use it for
something economically advan-
tageouS that would have more
than just ordinary commercial
application.
THE suggestion for using it
for efficiency apartments for
single persons and the aging
was brought to us and we
thought it was a wonderful use
for the property.
I'VE are planning as a family
to develop this property under
FILA Section 213, which pro-
vides for cooperative housing
We have been discussing this
matter with Starco, which
brought the concept to us.

property and will continue our
discussions with Starco on the
basis of the situation as it

he said, other women who
wanted to withdraw succeeded
in getting their money back,
too.
One of those who withdrew
was a one-time president of the
association. She had said at
the hearing that the women
were given to understand that
an apartment building would be
built where rooms could be
rented as low as $3.50 monthly.
F Street Site Proposed
No FILA application was ever
filed for the Washington prof.
ect, but in January, 1856. Mr..
Vickers visited an FILA official
to show him a proposed site for
The Towers on F street across
from Woodward & Lothrop's.
The plan outlined by Mr.. Wick
ers was to use the bottom two
floors for a department store
with living quarters on the
floors above. Mr.. Vickers was
told the site would not be ap-
proved.
Reached by telephone Friday,
Mr.. Vickers declined to COM
ment on the earlier. ventures
and referred questions to Mr..
Foley and Bernard Fagelson, an
Alexandria attorney whose fam
lily owns the site on which
Starco, Inc. wants to build the
new project.
1t was learned, however, that
Residence at Ease Association
has been succeeded by another
organization known as the
Housing Foundation, which was
incorporated in Michigan by an
attorney, Hallet B. Frisbie of
Detroit. Mr.. Frisbie is listed in
the corporation records for
Starco. Inc, filed here last April
as a vice president and director
of Starco. Inc.
Another link between Mr..
Vickers' present and past asso-
Citations was the presence at
the August Z hearing before
the Fairfax Planning Commits
sion of a spokesman for the
Housing Foundation who was
one of the former presidents
of Residence at Ease Associa-
ton.
At the August hearing. Mr..
VickerS was asked if he had
handled a project Of this kind
before. He replied:
Some of us have done prof.
ects like this and others so on
down the line. Our structural
engineer has built, helped to

Comes to Washington
Mr.. Vickers came to Wash
ington in 1850 and the Resi-
dence at Ease Washington Di-
vision was formed. In 1852,
several other corporations were
formed, including Raestaff of
o., S. Cooperative Corp; Rae
staff of Washington, D. c. Co.
operative Corp; and Raestaff
of. Detroit, Mich. Cooperative
Corp.
Early in 1858, Mr.. Vickers
announced a new investment
plan for members Of Residence
at Ease Association. This was
a trust fund agreement in
which members could invest
in. units of $500 each.
o The members we're told that
participation in the trust
fund would provide the neces-
sary equity" in the apartment
project-the equity being the
difference between the 80 per
cent loan available from FHA
and the 100 per cent needed
for construction.
Members were also given to
understand that the trust fund
was set up to allow future ten
ants of The Towers, as the
project was called, to own the
equity and ultimately the
building.
Later, another financing plan
was proposed-a Dime -a-Day"
program for women who
couldn't afford a $500 payment.
Mr. .Vickers' title was chief
technical advisor" His wife
was president of Raestaff as
manager of the trust fund.
Early in 1854, several of the
members visited the United
States Attorneys office to ex-
press fears that they had vast
ed their money.
Hearing Is Held
An assistant United States
Attorney held a four-hour
hearing on the complaints.
A financial report presented
by members of the board of
Residence at Ease showed that
cash assets had shrunk in three
years from about $4,000 to
about $4,000. Testimony at
the hearing was to the effect
that $500 was paid to Rae
staff.
AS for the trust fund, it was
testified that 95 persons had
contributed $1,000 to the fund.
The rest Of the money had been
collected in membership dues
Of $50.

pared in cooperation with

I'VE like to think of the
association as a catalytic
agent" Mr.. Stein explained.
"One of our key goals is to
find things that need doing,
get them going and then let
the appropriate agency take
over"
Efforts to rid the public of
its fright of mental illness is
another aim of the associa-
ton and hundreds of local
high school students who
toured st. Elizabeths last
year came away with quite
a different conception of the
hospitals patients, Mrs. Stein
reported.
This field trip, which is
now included in the District
school curriculum, has led
to inquiries about careers in
the mental health field, she
said. And some of the stu
dents have signed up as hos
pital volunteers.
Making job opportunities
available for discharged pa
tients is still another of the
associations many activities.
The drugs which have
worked such wonders in in
creasing the numbers of dis
charged patients also have
posed the problem of how to
help them return to the COM
munity, the Stems pointed
out.
Lifelong Interest
Philanthropic work is a
lifelong interest of Mrs.
Stein whose grandfather es-
tablished the Nathan Hof-
heimer Foundation in New

she took her B.A. in psy-
chology and also did social

The Colman Stems observe

ly discussing at dinner q
mutually absorbing topic
mental health work.
It's their way of keeping
business" in its proper pers-
pective.
For volunteer work with
the District of Columbia As
sociation for Mental Health
has become virtually a busi-
ness with this civic-minded
couple.
Mrs. Stein is a co-founder
with Mrs. Murdaugh Mad
den) of the local association,
organized nine years ago, and
now heads its Long-Range
Planning Committee.
Mr.. Stein, who began help
ing out as legal adviser and
in general administrative
functions, has been its preSi-
dent for more than two years.
Four Children
The four Stein children are
interested too, he pointed out.
This tended for a while to
give the association and its
work a sort of monopoly in
family talk in the evening.
so we decided to practice
what we preach and not dis
cuss business at dinner"
said Mrs. Stein.
The two were delighted,
however, to talk about their
mental health activities for
an hour or so the other
morning during a joint inter-
view at their home on Red
wood terrace.
From the handful who
launched the association
back in the fall of 1852, the
membership has grown to
$500, Mr.. Stein reported
proudly.
The hard-working board
of q, which meets monthly,
is continually coming up with
ideas for improving local
mental health services and
starting new projects in this
field.
For instance, the associa-
ton helped initiate a drive
for an emergency psychiatric
assistance program in the
District, Mr.. Stein pointed
out.
This service is available to
resident families without
funds who don't know what
to do when a member be-
comes mentally i'll.
If the patient is violent, or
there Is the threat of vio-
lence, police can be called.
But this usually adds to the
heartbreak of a distressing
situation.
Now a panel Of psychia-
trists have agreed to be on
call through the Emergency
Home Consultation Service
of the District Health De-
partment's Bureau of Mental
Health.
Though the association set
aside a kitty" to launch the
program, the proposal re-
ceived wide support and the
necessary funds were appro-
priated by congress.
Information on this and
other services is available at
the associations office at
5000 Connecticut avenue
N.W.)
Project
Local police will acquire a
better understanding of the
mentally i'll through a prof.
ect launched by the associa-
ton and now being carried
forward by the Police De-
partment in cooperation with
st. Elizabeths hospital.
This is a workshop for po-
lice rockies on how to rec
ognize and handle abnormal
people.
Each new class of police
men in training will go out
to St. Elizabeths for a ses-
sion including observation
and instruction from the
hospitals psychiatric staff.
A workshop held last May
is to be repeated tomorrow,
with four planned each year,
Mr.. Stein said.
"The association will pro-
vide the textbooks" mis- wife
added.
