Describes Survey "In this country, the reser voir of the untreated mental ly ill is unfathomable," Mr. Ewalt admits. He described a person to person survey he supervised. Thousands were asked "Did you ever have so many troubles you felt you might have a nervous break down?" One in four answered "Yes." Of those answering "Yes" one in seven sought help. "That's the trouble with the clinic s," Ewalt confessed. "It is normal for the two, three and four year olds. It is not becoming for adults."

(UPI) Reporter Weapon For News Truth New York-iUPIi-The weapon that has always conquered government attempts to man age news is the competent re porter, backed all the way by publishers and editors, the American Newspaper Publish ers Association was told to day. Herbert Brueker. editor of the Hartford Courant and newly elected president of the American Society of News paper Editors, told the pub lishers that managed news was nothing new in this coun- more to ""Mf, H try and elsewhere. "What comes as a shock is to find such a concept of news not only applied here, but also endorsed officially as a positive good," he said. "In deed, that is all that is new about managed news in this country today - not the ail but - instrinctive government resort to news managing, but the open defense of it as a patriotic virtue." Brueker's address on "man aged news" was prepared for . delivery at the final session ! of ihe 77th annual ANPA convention in the grand ball room of the Waldorf-Astoria hotel. ft flavors Cows Often Injured By Swallowing Metal Fargo.

Russia Expected To Veto Proposal Geneva -WW- Western dele gates to the 17-nation disarma ment conference predicted nrivatelv tndav that Russia will reject the latest Anglo- American nuclear proposals although they represent a sig nificant compromise. They said the proposals ap peared to reduce Western demands on the number of on-site inspections in Soviet territory but the Russians probably will stick to their present limit of "two to three" inspections a year. United States and British ambassadors in Moscow were understood to have offered Khrushchev a minimum of 30 international on-site inspec tions over a period of seven years. There was no official con firmation of the report, which wnitlH mean a maior reduc tion in the Western demand of no less than seven inspections each year. Such a reduction would be in Un with the new Western thinking in which major reli ance for policing a test ban is placed on stations outside Soviet territory.
