2 The Newt-Review, Roieburg, Ore. Wed., June 29, 1949 Psychiatrist Describes Treatment Of Patients At Veterns Hospital The Kiwanis Club picnic will be held Thursday night at 6:30 p.m. at the Roseburg Country club. The picnic, originally scheduled for Tuesday, had to be postponed, because the Country Club was not available on the earlier date, reported Tom Parge ter, general chairman in charge. Dr. Robert Allen, psychiatrist at the Veterans Hospital, ad dressed the Club on rehabilita tion and treatment ol patients. He described the treatment team at the hospital, consisting of physicians, psychiatrists, psy chologists and social workers, each of whom has definite work laid out for him in rehabilitating the patient In order that he may return to normal life. This Is Important both from the standpoint of relieving the patient from suffering, and from an economic or Declsiae cost, in curing the man so that he will not only no longer be a burden on the taxpayer, but will be able to contribute something toward society, said Dr. Allen. He described briefly the sys tem of patient treatment. It Is known at the outset when a patient arrives, his former life has been unsatisfactory in some manner, he said. It is necessary first to get the patient to slop looking back at the things which have brought about his mental grief, and to start him looking forward to a new life. This Is the difficult step, and certain signs are looked for to learn the progress of the in dividual. Attitude, stability, con tinuity and adaptation of the Jiatient are definite signs, which, f indicated in any form, show progress is being made. Various methods are applied to bring about these readjustments, and if the hospital staff is success ful In this operation, the next Im portant step is to make sure the patient continues in the right direction and that he does not slip back to his former pattern of thinking, said Dr. Allen. A report on last week's visit of several Kiwanians to Grants Pass was made by President Earl Plummer. The members are sub jected to a "framed" mock radio broadcast, said Plummer. Every thing seemed natural, he said, until some rather humorous In cidents were brought into play, at the expense of the visitors. Tuesday's meeting was the final one to be attended by Fath er William Blaker, rector of St. George's Episcopal Church, who leaves July 5 to take up his new pastorate at St. Helens. Father Tyson will come here the follow ing day. He also is a Kiwanian. Hospital Assn. Dates Election Of New Officers A meeting of members of the Douglas Community Hospital As sociation, Inc., will be held Thurs day, June 30, ' at 7:30 p. m. at the City Council Chambers, when new officers and trustees will be installed.

Jackson lng publicly-owned dwelling units for low-income families of a type most people buying their own homes cannot afford. Under the housing bill, the gov ernment would undertake slum clearance and public housing, and provide iarm nousine aids. Administration forces cleared a major barrier yesterday when the House killed lbs to ldu an amend ment that would have prevented racial segregation in publicly owned housing projects. Offered bv Rep. Fulton (R-Pa). this amendment would have per mitted wnite and Negro tenants to occupy the same public hous ing buildings. Rep. Spence (D-KY), leading the fight for the bill, said such an amendment, if . approved, would have killed the whole hous ing program. The amendment got virtually solid Republican support, but the sum of $30,000 is expected from welfare funds to partially offset the $70,721 proposed ap propriation. Plans also were detailed for an aerial survey and assessment of private timber lands. "Some sections of timber worth as much as a half million dollars, are listed as grazing lands," County Judge Busenbark said. "We haven't had a com plete revaluation of privately owned timber for 30 years. When the original cruise was made, timber didn't have much value, so many pieces of property were classified for grazing rather than for their timber. On today's mar ket they are worth much more for their timber." The Court said the work will continue over a period of years with a probable total cose of $2no,ooo. It was announced that because of heavy anticipated expense in yurcl'jii'ng rights-of-way for im provement of the North Umpqua Hiehwav. the sum of $168,000 was being transferred from the roads and bridges sinking fund, which still has a balance in excess of $851,000. from Congress will be vetoed. Lucas today was seeking to dis pose of the labor debate quickly. Overnight he tried to get unani mous Senate agreement to vote tomorrow on the "Taft substi tute," for the entire administra tion labor bill except the na tional emergency provision. Taft Program In Brief The Taft substitute would pre serve such Taft-Hartley features as these: The ban on closed shop con tracts that require all employees to be union members; the inde pendence of the federal media tion service; the provision -that employers don't have to bargain with their foremen; the ban on mass picketing; and the use of temporary injunctions in unfair labor practice cases. On the other hand, Taft would abandon such Taft-Hartley provi sions as: The Independent "general coun sel" of the National Labor Rela tions Board with sole authority to prosecute cases; the provision that now says men on strike can't vote in plant elections; and the blanket prohibition against all secondary boycotts (union efforts to exert pressure on one com pany by forcing other companies to quit doing business with it). Taft 8eores Green , Lucas had Green's letter read to the Senate by a clerk. Senator Taft, who got in the injunction amendment, lit into Green in a speech. Taft said the AFL president's letter was "probably the most presumptlous statement that any individual has ever made -to the Senate of the United States." "Mr. Green is undertaking to veto the Senate bill before It is passed." Taft spoke also of Green's "or ders to those in the Senate who want to follow the AFL." That brought from Lucas a declaration that "there Isn't any labor leader going to lay down a program for the Senator from Illinois." Taft said he Is out to make Im provements in the Taft-Hartle" law that labor should "welcome." Taft said labor leaders are go ing to reject his proposed im provements in order to make the Taft-Hartley act an Issue In the next election campaign. "But they can't make an Issue of it," the Senator exclaimed. We can point out that in everv complaint they made, we listened to them and made changes. Taft is up for re-election in 1950.

Budget Boost Asked Of County Court (Continued From Page One) year, will be set up if money can be made available. The County Fair Board, now engaged in arranging the first county fair for many years, finds itself completely lacking in funds, the Court was told. Not only has the board exhausted its treasury in construction cf build ings, but has deferred payments pending on work now in progress. Prize money needs were item ized as $600 lor Future Farmers of America, $1,250 for 4 H Clubs, $750 for the Redsport Community Fair, $225 for Grange prizes, and $500 miscellaneous, a total of $3,325. ' .. The Court expressed a desire to appropriate the money if a suitable source can be found. Suggestion was made that the $50,000 emergency fund be re duced by the amount necessary to cover the two additional pro jects. The Court spent considerable time explaining the County Hos pital budget, pointing out that very few Democrats supporting the housing bill joined with them. However, all was not velvet for the administration forces in the rugged week-long battle over the bill. . A tie vote narrowly defeated a "home rule" amendment that would have barred public housing in any city unless voters there first approved it in a referendum. Rep. Boggs (R-AIa), presiding at the time, announced the vote as 132 to 132. He quickly added: "The chair votes no, and the amendment Is defeated." (A tie would have killed it without his vote). ki La r-j S 2 i TTTT M Ita Beautiful Kitchen Cabinets June brides or brides of any month will be thrilled with our modern cabinets. See Our Display.
