Prevention Problems Few people consider pre vention in treatment of emo tional disorders because of some basic reasons, Dr. Eli M. Bower, ' deputy director, liaison and prevention serv ices, California department of mental hygiene, told more than 100 'people attending the annual dinner meeting of the Family and Child Guidance Clinic association last night at Hoover school. Society unconsciously op poses preventative treatment, but does not know why, Dr. Bower said. Until people un derstand these hidden reasons, treatment of emotional and mental disorders will be aim. iliar to old tests, given people suspected of insanity. Servicemen ASSIGNED. Harry R.

It needs scapegoats," Dr. Bower said. Personal Privacy "Another reason Is that our society is founded on a por trait of personal privacy. Peo ple are reluctant to intrude on this privacy and to help prevent emotional disorders until a family is rent asunder with problems," he declared. "Yet another reason for this lack of acceptance of preventa. tive treatment is that mental health people, themselves, are uncomfortable with non-ill ness problems. , Traditional training has prepared . them for treatment instead of pre vention." People must realize they will get nowhere if they con tinue to provide more treat ment and little or no preven tion, Dr. Bower emphasized.

Meeting considered only prevention, yet we seem satisfied with only treatment in the mental health field," Dr. Bower point ed out. "Why? Because society feels it needs both emotional and criminal behavior. Even if we know from the beginning a child is inclined toward crim inal behavior we don't stop it until it reaches the institu tional stage," he stated. Primary institutions such as schools must help young poo pie until they become emo tionally mature adults. Mental health groups now realize they must reenforce the schools by aiding school officials who have no training in this field The schools have good lever age, while the family has be- come too "free-wheeling" a; an institution, Dr. Bower said, Given Even Break "Preventative treatment in the field of mental health gives every human an even break until he grows up," Dr, Bower said, Dr. Bower was introduced by Dr. John H. Waterman, director of the mental health section, state board of health. The Rev. Robert Dowrey, asso ciate pastor, First Methodist church, gave the invocation and benediction. Ben Day, association direc tor, presented six new mem bers to the board who had been unanimously nominated. They are Dr. Henry L. Boehn ke, Mr. Dowrey, Circuit Judge Edward C. Kelly, Robert E.
