Adequate Attention
To Mental Patients
Urged by Psychiatrist
New York U.PJ A noted
authority said Thursday com
munities and their leaders
should interest themselves in the
treatment and care of the men
tally ill and "preventive psy
chiatry? as protection against
murderous lunatics.
George S. Stevenson, M.D.,
former president of the Ameri
can Psychiatric Association and
medical director of the National
Association for Mental Health,
pointed out that the public was
by no means blameless in the
tragedies authored by Bayard
Peakes and other maniacs.
Public Responsible
The public, in its indifference,
is ultimately responsible for the
"terrible inadequacies" of its
own facilities for the mentally
ill, particularly state . mental
hospitals, . he said. .... v .... .-.
Hospitalization of the-physi-
cally ill costs $15 a day at a
minimum, yet the so-called "pro
gressive" states spend a little
more than $2' a day to "hospital
ize" the mentally ill. Mine,
which had the first opportunity
to deal with Peakes as a sick
person, spends around $1.67 a
day.
"That isn't hospitalization, at
all," Stevenson added: "It's the
'asylum approach' to a highly
important part of public health."
Method Outlined
In an interview with the
United Press, Stevenson outlined
what the public can do to pre
vent mad murders.
. "The public should be inter
ested in all state and federal
psychiatric services and should
do everything possible to make
them function," he said. "Par
ticularly, it should insist on re
ductions in the overcrowding of
state institutions for the men
tally ill and see to it that they
have competent staffs of suf
ficient size.
Should Extend Services
"Communities and their lead
ers should seek to extend their
psychiatric services Into the
community and get at the people
who need them and thus protect
such individuals as Peakes from
their own inclinations. Psychi
atric clinics should exist in .every
community.
"There should be a build-up of
the capacity of general hospitals
to deal with psychiatric prob
lems, and many general hospitals
are woefully weak in this ca
pacity now. And there should
be a build-up of the abilities of
various kinds of professional
functionaries to deal with them."

Mandolins Expected
To Regain Popularity
Chicago U.R) Haul that
mandolin out of the attic.
The American Music Confer
ence predicts that the mandolin,
forced into obscurity by the rise
of jazz and the tenor banjo, will
regain its popularity this year.
Revival of the eight-string in
strument, AMC says, will result
from the featured spot it cur
rently holds in Europe. Popular
orchestras on radio, in music
halls and theaters, as well as
amateur groups, have popular
ized the mandolin in France,
Italy, Holland, Belgium, Ger
many and Denmark, the confer

Rita Hayworth Feels Aly Kahn
Would Be Happier as Bachelor
Editor'! note This Is the
second in a two-part series
telling - the' behind-the-scenes
drama that sets the stage for
the scheduled meeting Thurs
day between Aly Khan and
his estranged wife, Rita Hay-worth.
BY ALINE MOSBY
U. P. Hollywood Reporter
Hollywood U.R) Rita Hay-
worth does not want to' go back
to being a princess because she
thinks Prince Aly Khan will be
happier as a free-lancing bache
lor.
The dashing prince, who is
scheduled to fly to movietown
Thursday night to try to woo
back Rita, scored a romantic
coup when he won Hollywood's
voluptuous "love goddess" in
1949. But Rita had scarcely
moved into his boudoir with the
ostrich feather - covered bed
when the public prints reported
he was escorting other beauties
around Europe.
One magazine reported Aly
was seen in the company of the
exotic dancer, Katherine Dun
ham. Miss Dunham insisted they
were just friends.
Proved Disconcerting
Rita's pals say this proved dis
concerting to the actress, since
Miss Dunham had been linked
in print with Rita's husband
No. 2, Orson Welles, too.
Other gossip columns related
Aly's friendships with Heide
Beer, the estranged, blonde and
beautiful wife of British band
leader Sidney Beer, and Boston
divorcee Nancy Masseroni.
"Rita tired of this Moslem
conception of marriage, that the
wife is a possession to be shown
off while the husband is free to
come and go as he pleases," a
friend of the red-haired beauty
says.
Aly Khan issued numerous in
dignant communiques.
"They can link my name with
500 women," he announced,
"but I still love my wife. It isn't
over as far as I'm concerned .. . .
Victims of Vicious Tongues
"We have always been the vic
tims of vicious tongues . . . peo
ple who try to blacken our won
derful relationship."
Rita had other troubles at her

Rita, furthermore, left Holly

last June heavily in debt. The
prince declines to work and has
to ask papa for his spending
money.
Furnished Fabulous Home
She excitedly furnished their
fabulous home in Paris, but she
never saw much of it. Aly
whisked her off on a tour of
the Mediterranean and a lion
hunt in Africa. The movie queen
sat 'out the big game expedition

snubbed her.
Before Aly returned with his
trophies, Rita flew back to Paris
in a surge of loneliness for her
children, whom she hadn't seen
in three months. She bundled
them: off , to New York where she
