Aima usnny dopjrisav or nasam raacuraa torpj Gaorg S. - After a nerv ous breakdown, I must lie to get a job. Mrs. P.S. - Tell the truth. You'll worry about being found out. a a Gaorg S. - Overdoing things in my first job, I went into a collapse and wound up in a state hospital. After eight months of treatment, I was released as fully re covered. But what happens "on the outside" is enough to send an ex-patient back fast. I'm an accountant. I ap plied for a job and filled out the required forms. When it asked about the past year, I told the truth. I work with facts and I believe in them. I was turned down and now I'm ready to follow the ad vice of other ex-patients - that is, keep quite about my illness and make up some thing about a previous job. , a Mrs. P.S. - I can't believe there's that much ignorance around. George just encoun tered an outfit still livinf in the Stone Age, and he's just as well off not working for such old fogies. Surely in this day and afie people realize there's no dif ference between mental ill ness and any other illness aft er recovery. When a man's back on his feet he's ready to go back to work. Why should George have to lie and say he had pneumonia, or do what one of his friends did - give the name of a firm that went but of business, as his last place of employment so it couldn't be traced? By telling the truth he'll be hired by a progressive, in telligent boss. And he won't have to live in dread of his lie's being tracked down. Tha Council - Work is to the recovered patient what food is to the starving. It returns him to the living. It proves he can hold his own in the swift currents of daily life. Lacking a paying job, the ex-patient may slump from a rut to a new depres sion, lose his nerve, and re turn to what one psychiatrist calls the "psychiatric mill," that is, back for treatment again because the community refuses to do its part in com pleting his rehabilitation. It refuses to employ him. Many sober adviseri would with a straight face tell George to resort to tht white lie because of the benighted state of public attitudes on mental illness. In the fight' fire with fire spirt they say, "Cover up your past be cause most employers don't understand mental illness, and what they don't understand they fear." But the wiser course is to sign up with one of the more enlightened employment agea cles, one that "knows its cus tomers" and is prepared to deal discreetly with those who are well-meaning but ties itant. These agencies may be located by George through his local mental health clinic, for they are the good right arm of all effective therapy. If uncertain as to where to turn. write to the National Assoc! ation for Mental Health, 10 Columbus Circle, New York City, for local addresses. In New York State, for exam ple, the State Employment Bureau and the Civil Serv ice Department permit no stig matizing whatever to the ex mental patient, and process h i s applications routinely along with everyone else's. If only more hospitals did what is done in Northport, L. I., at the Veterans Hospi tal facility. For the past few years, the Rehabilitation De partment has been sending re covered patients out on jobs not too far from the hospital. These men return each eve ning. Their employers are part of a lengthening panel of intelligent and public-spirited citizens who realize that society - all of us - is the missing link in the success ful rehabilitation of the ex- mental patient. After a pe riod of about six months on these "arranged for" iobs at fair pay, the men go after - and usually get - the . jobs they want near home. Un like George, they have an easy time filling in the blank for "Previous position." Douglas Fir Output Behind 1959 Figure Portland - Production at Douglas fir sawmills for the first eleven months of 1962 fell 902 million board feet behind output for 1959, the last normal year before Ca nadian lumber Imports start ed climbing.

WOMAN'S GROWING) ROLE IN WALL STREET Keith Funston, president of the New York Slock Ex change, is more of a gentleman In taking the "nuts" in print I sent to him last week than I was a lady In selecting this derisive greeting. Instead of rearing up in anger because I wrote that the New York Stock Exchange's recent report dissecting Black Monday, May 28, gave the misleading impression that wom en panicked and helped kick off that historic stock market break, his reply was a gentle, "We only cited statistics, drew no conclusions and we're not the least bit concerned about the behavior of women in the market." Funston then proceeded to load me with statistics to prove the "great emphasis the NYSE is continuing to place on women's growing role In the stock market." Here, therefore, is new information about I he American woman in Wall Street In 1962 and this story I submit with pleasure. Itam: About half of the 1,500.000 people now annually attending the courses offered by NYSE member firms across the country are women. Women also are among the most devoted participants In the 25,000 investment clubs currently operating in the U.S. The rough estimate Is that one-third of the 350,000 members of the clubs are women and one-fourth are ex clusively women's groups. Harm Women are entering Important Jobs in the secur ities industry at a far faster rate than men. In 1946 there were 9,260 registered representatives of NYSE firms, of which 178 were women. Today there are 32,506 registered representatives of NYSE firms, of which 1,808 are women. The overall growth rate is 53 per cent, but the growth rate for women alone is 1,016 per cent. In 1940 there were 2,480 NYSE partners, but women held only 24 general and 45 limited partnerships at that time. Today there are 5.806 partners, with women holding 59 general and 474 limited partnerships. The overall growth rate is 234 per cent, but the growth rate for women alone is 774 per cent. Itami "The Lady and the Stock Exchange," the Big Board's first "screenplay" was completed and titled after the May crackup in the slock market. In that film the wom an makes the shrewd inveslmenl decision, tne nusnana is the one who acts on a tip, finally backs down. Actually, NYSE officials report they've received complaints that the movie makes fun of the head of the family. Since Us re lease this past September there have been 55 TV showings of the play. Ittmt To underline lis lack of concern about women I behavior in the market, the NYSE has started a new educa tional radio scries 26 weeks of flve-mlnute shows beamed to women, and it Is continuing Its special women's ads In major women's magaiincs. Preliminary studies of responses to the ads Indicate that they have had extremely high read ership. Says an NYSE official. Increasingly, and particu larly with new investing families, wives have the major say In family investment decisions. And we mean Investments, not speculations." It was unfortunate that the NYSE highiignted in una- ing that during the chaotic days of May 28, 29 and 31. In Wall Street. "Women, whose total volume was about one- third that for men, nevertheless had a sales balance In the aggregate for the three days which was two-and-a-half times as great as that for men.'' This does give tne misieaoing impression that women dumped nocks in sKyrocKOiing vol ume. The NYSE has no proof that they dumped. Women accounted for only 25.S per cent of total trading by indi vidual!. Of count, lomt woman panic undar- vlolant strain financial as well at emotional or spiritual. So io soma man. The fundamental fact is. though, that women are Increas ingly a part of thd backbone of our nation's securities mar kets. They are investing not only the nesteggs they accu mulate out of their own earnings but alto the funds they inherit. They are less and less stockholders In name only, more and more active observers (and critics) of the com panies in which they own shares. The NYSt Is digging up some fascinating and still un reported aspects of the great stock crash of 1962, But "pan ickx. women" ft not among them.
