Gov. El mo Smith has been told. The governor conferred about the problem of seniles with Dr. Dean Brooks, state hospital superintendent; Mrs. Loa How ard Mason, public welfare ad ministrator: Dr. Gordon C. Ed wards, acting state health of ficer; and Dr. Willard J. Stone, Marion county health officer. Required care for aged per sons, who because of age and physical disabilities require some type of attention, ranges from domiciliary to complete medical type care, the governor was told. Heavy Demand on Funds It was pointed out that many seniles are maintained in nurs ing homes by the Public Welfare Commission, placing a heavy de mand on welfare funds. Some nursing homes hesitate to take in senile patients because they often require more service than a nursing home can offer on the basis of the fee that public wel fare can pay. Dr. Brooks said that because the state hospital is operating at full capacity; a patient must be discharged for every one admit ted. He also said that the hos pital was in the position of hav ing to admit senile patients for whom they can do nothing while younger persons who are susceptible to treatment cannot be accommodated. Several years ago a domici liary type institution for the care of seniles was advocated in the Portland area. However, the final bill passed by the Legislature was for the general mental institution which is be ing built at Wilsonville. WILL PAYS BILL Hesperia, Mich. .UP.)
