Stigma of Mental Illness

By ROBERT VAUGHN
/tany people are not getting

to Murry Horowitz of the Uni-
sity's Survey Research Center.
)irector of a study of mental
ilth conducted by the Center
Phoenix, Arizona, Horowitz
nted out that at the present
fe it is difficult to get people
nake use of the facilities avail-
e to them.

IN ORDER to establish mental

nd what views people hold on

In an attempt to discover
what attitudes "normal" people
have toward emotional problems
and the alleviation of emotional
stress, the Center is working in
conjunction with the United
States Public Health Service
which has set up a public mental
health center in the Arizona
city.
Few people are aroused by the
urgency of the problem even
though more than fifty percent of
the hospital beds in the nation are
occupied by mental patients, Hor-
owitz said.
UNITED STATES Public Health
Service figures indicate that there
are 8,000,000 persons in the nation
suffering from mental illness at
the present time.
It is also feared that at the
present rate, 1,000,000 children
now in elementary schools will
spend some time in state mental
hospitals in later life, according
to the Public Health Service.
Noting these figures, the Survey
Research Center is attempting to
provide data for the planning of
a program which will facilitate a
person's getting professional psy-
chiatric help when he needs it.
Evaluation of interviews com-
pleted in Phoenix and forwarded
to the center is now underway.
Complete results of this study will
be available later in the month.

The United States is a new and
continually surprising world, Karl
Kanka of the Hesse Landtag,
Germany, said yesterday in des-
cribing his impressions of America
after a two-week stay here.
Kanka and five other German
legislators are touring the nation
under the -State Department's
cultural exchange program.
* * *
"ONE OF the most democratic
processes -here seems to be your
open township meetings," Ger-
trud Harms of the Bremen city
council noted. "The citizens meet
together to discuss their problems
freely-something we do not know
in Germany."
She registered astonishment,
however, at the low vote turn-
out in the Ann Arbor elections
Tuesday.
Hans Huber of the Heidleberg
town council and judge of a Mann-
heim county court, after attending
a meeting of the League of Women
Voters, hailed our policy of quiz-
zing candidates on their political
views.
* * *
BUT HE said that he felt can-
didates were chosen because of
their political standing rather
than any qualification for office.
All of the German visitors
agreed that any of the men' in
office they have met were fair
and objective in their public
life.
After viewing both partisan and
non-partisan types of governmen-
tal set-ups, the legislators split
their opinions on which they pre-
ferred.
* * *
'"I MARVEL at the educational
system in this country," Miss
Harms said. "Here you start at the
beginning of a subject and work
through it by degrees. In my land
persons in different stages of
training in a subject are thrown
together."
And Hanka said that he wished
that his countrymen who oppose
study of the arts could come here
and see the interest that American
students show in them.

nace, Sault Ste. Marie, Bay City,
Cleveland, Buffalo, and Pitts-
burgh. These will be generally
through buses, and sale of reserva-
tions will close at noon today.
Railroads report heavy traffic
Ui ticket sales, with most reserva-
tions gone. Two extra sections are
scheduled to pull out of Ann
Arbor tomorrow afternoon. One
will head west at 1:15 p.m., and
the other east at 7:30 p.m., in:
addition to regularly scheduled
trains.
Beginning today, seats on east-I
bound flights will be very hard
to obtain, according to M. B.
Boersma, of a local travel agency.
