Mental Hospital
(Continued from Page One)
Clackamas, Clatsop and Columbia counties counties near the
proposed Portland hospital. It is not humane to ship mental pa
tients unreasonably far from their families, as is now done in the
case of many Portland patients who are sent to Pendleton more
than 200 miles away.
3. By having the physically able patients do their own work
and help with the infirm patients, the costs could be cut mater
ially. 4. Proximity of the proposed hospital to the University of
Oregon medical school in Portland who would be a natural "tie
In" for education.
' 5. The national trend toward general mental hospitals with
special wings for the treatment of the aged, rather than toward
hospitals for the aged only.
6. By putting the new hospital in Portland efficient use could
be made of a large reservoir of volunteer help.
7. Builders of a general mental hospital can likely get federal
financial help. They can't get such help for a hospital for the
aged only.
8. The legislature might interpret a "no" vote as a sign that
the voters had changed their minds about any hospital since the
1952 election. The legislature might therefore again ignore the
mandate of the people and refuse to appropriate money for the
sew institution.
Arguments Against
There are arguments against the measure, too:
1. The aged patient in a general mental hospital will possibly
be passed over by doctors who spend more of their time with
younger patients who are more likely to be cured.
2. If a new general mental hospital is built, it ought to b
built in Southern Oregon rather than in Portland.
3. One third of the mental patients in the state are aged. Thus,
if a third mental hospital is built, it ought to be for this group.
4. Senile patients ought to be cared for by the state, but they
ought not to have to bear the stigma of going to a traditional
mental hospital. They should have a place of their own.
If the measure passes Nov. 2, the legislature will then be faced
with a "second mandate" to come up with the money for the pro
ject. If it fails, the 1952 law will still be on the books. This .will
obligate the legislature, legally and morally, to build the "geria
trics hospital" for the aged only. However, there is the possibility
that if the measure is defeated, the legislature will interpret it
is a change of heart on. the part of the voters.
