4 e 1 WONT IN STATE INGREASING, REPORT - BY CARR DISCLaSES Institution Faces Severe Prob- lem in Overcrowding, Su- perintendent Says Insanity is slowly increasing in North Dakota, with its greatest con- tributory cause the continuance of depression and its attendant mental stresses, Dr. J. D. Carr, superintend- ent of the state hospital for the in- » Sane, said Thursday in his bienpial report. Faced with mounting demands on space already overcrowded 45 per cent over normal, no other alterna- tive is at hand except to temporarily close the state hospital to future re- ception of patients, unless additional pie is provided, Dr. Carr pre- In the hospital at the close of the biennial period June 30 of this year, there were 1,897 patients, 1,736 in the <— and 161 on parole, Dr. Carr He asked a legislative ap) tion of $200,000 for conuCtin Of & new ward building for men, explain- ing that should the hospital be tem- Pporarily closed to further admission, the “course would compel the vari- ous counties of the state to care for their insane in their jails and poor houses, and this unfortunate pros- pect should be avoided if there is any Possible way to do so.” Males Overcrowded The overcrowding, he said, was largely confined to the male side of} the institution. The new ward build- ing recommended by him would con- tain 200 beds, with an average cost of construction of $1,000 per bed- space. * | While such a new addition would * be filled at once, because of the in- creasing demand, the building would “at least help to reduce our present overcrowding. It is impossible to properly care for and treat patients in overcrowded wards and as @ re- sult the percentage of patients re- stored to their normal mental state has suffered.” During the two-year period, a total of 104 patients, including one woman, escaped from the hospital. Of this THE BISMARCK: TRIBUNE. THURSDAY, OCTOBER 4, 1934 “The Voice of the Sky,” a huge Fokker airplane in which the human voice is magnified nearly 200,000 times its normal intensity, paid an serial visit to Bismarck Thursday. This ‘was announced Tuesday by the Sioux Oil Co., jobbers of Pure Oil products, This “Voice of the Sky” is identical to those sound airplanes now being used by the British government in suppressing native uprisings in Egypt and India, without bloodshed, 8. W. Corwin pointed out. The procedure followed in quelling these revolts is to send the planes over the native camps in the dead of night, with the motors throttled low. An interpreter then calls into the airplane amplifying apparatus in the native tongue saying. ———— eee “Voice of the Sky’ Greets City_ ||METHODIST LAYMEN | “Allah speaks! Lay down your arms ‘and return to your homes!” This warning from the sky thundering out of the stillness of the night is usually sufficient, Corwin says, and morning finds the rebellious tribesmen back with their goat herds. ; ‘Two men are at the controls of the scientifically equipped monoplane. Lieutenant Biggs is the chief pilot ‘and Wilbur C. Brown is the co-pilot and electrical engineer. Both men are pioneers in the development of super-power audio amplifftrs. As the airplane cruises over the city at altitude of from 1500 to 2000 feet, the engineer, Brown, speaks into a small microphone in the cabin of the plane. Instantly, his words can be heard distinctly for almost two miles on the ground below. Of those admitted for treatment during the two-year period, 10 were driven insane by family affairs, 17 by financial reverses, three by love af- fairs, including two men and one woman; two by lack of employment, seven by prison confinement, one as the result of being struck by light- ning and 29 by worry. More Farmers Than Others More farmers than any other oc- cupational group were driven insane during the period; 148 housewives lost their minds and 104 laborers were admitted as insane. Nearly twice as many men as wo- men were admitted as patients dur- ing the two years—478 men and 272 women. During the ages of 30 to 35 years, the greatest number were stricken with insanity, the report shows. In number, 66 were captured, according) this group fell 81 men and women. to the report. A total of 750 persons were admitted during the biennial Period. A total of 371 patients were discharged during the same period. Next in importance was the age ip 25 to 30 years, with 81 patients grouy admitted; third highest were those in age ranging from 45 to 50 years, a If you want really white teeth .. use throw away you today! ordinary bristles turns limp when wet and cannot possibly keep teeth clean, white, an ANTI-SOGGY BRUSH!

Unemployment also affects parol- ing of patients from the institution, particularly those of agricultural pur- suit, Dr. Carr said. A number of pa- tients in condition to work on farms, under supervision, have been forced to remain at the hospital, because of lack of opportunity, he explained. “Mental disturbances, personality and behavior maladjustments among the unemployed still serve to increase our: ion beyond what would be anticipated if conditions were nor- mal,” Dr. Carr said. “There is still that lack of security both in an eco- nomic and psychological sense that is eséential to the maintenance of good mental health.” The increase in insanity is not pe- culiar to North Dakota, he said, but has become general throughout the United States. “The question arises as to whether this, or any other state can continue indefinitely in the present policy of caring for’ the mounting numbers of cases of mental troubles, and whether in time the burden will not grow be- yond the state’s capacity to bear it.” Philippines Hard Hit By Devastating Gale Manila,-P.

He did just that Wednesday night in a short wave broadcast to the Byrd Antarctic expedition. “Hello, Dick Byrd,” Dean started his broadcast. “I had a hard- pitched ball game here today, but I didn't have a thing on my fast ball or my curved ball. I can pitch a lot better ball than that. I think the Tigers are not as good a ball team as I figured them out to be. If they pitched me the whole four games, I would win them all.” Fog is merely a cloud in contact with the ground. JOHN JUNGERS Is NATIVE OF GERMANY Candidate for Insurance Com- missioner, of Regent, Came to U. S. in 1888 Tt was the spring of 1888. A sturdy German farmer in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg had gathered _his flock of six children about him. Over in @ corner of the kitchen, a mother sat weeping. One of her sons was about to leave the family hearth to seek & fortune in the‘new world. One of the younger Jungers’ sons, John Peter, with mature vision, had seen opportunities were slim in Lux- embourg. A neighbor was leaving for the United States of America. John Peter had volunteered to go with the neighbor and thus relieve the burden on the large family. A year later, John Peter Jungers could be found learning the manu- facture of boxes from virgin lumber’ at a factory in Escanaba, Mich., and studying nights to perfect his knowl- edge of the English language and cus- toms of America, |, In 1890 while working in Chicago, jhe came in contact with another box maker who had homesteaded in North Dakota. To the ambitious young im- migrant, the North Dakotan, farmer by summer and box maker in winter, Painted a picture of the opportuni- ties that awaited those who would seed the virgin North Dakota soil. Enthralled by his friend's stories, Jungers came to North Dakota in 1892. He filed on a homestead in Stark county near Gladstone. There Ihe ;decided to make his home. In summer he labored developing his farm. During the long winters he taught school, for he had received a splendid education in Germany. Father of 12 Building up a fine farm and sub- stantial income in his first five years on the prairie, Jungers married in 1897, Miss Rose Sziller, daughter of Mathias and Theresia Mayer Sziller, like himself, immigrants from Ger- many. To this union, 12 children were born. One son died two years ago in an airplane crash near Regent. Five are married, two living on farms, their father in his diverse ventures. Jungers continued: farming his homestead until 1908, at the same time broadening his knowledge by constant study. In that year he be- gan proving his business ability by Jaunchin, farmers’ elevator organ- while the others are associated with | | ization with which he was active three years. Also he established a lum- ber yard, and, in the meantime, had | moved his family to Dickinson in or- |der to avail himself of the better ed- jucational facilities. When the southwestern North Da- kota country was opened in 1910 by the Milwaukee railway, he moved to the new town of Regent.: There he organized the Regent Grain company, established a lumber yard, farm im- plement business and a general store. He also became interested in bank- jing. Today finds him vice: president of the First State Bank of Regent. Also he is president of the Agricul- |tural Credit association at Regent. A lifelong Democrat, Jungers only once has sought political preferment. That was in 1928 when he was @ can- didate for state senator from the 49th legislative district on the Demo- jeratic ticket. His nearest approach to politics prior to that time was when he acted as Stark county as- sessor three years. Throughout his active life, Mr. of the Roman Catholic church and for many years has served as 8 mem- ber of the church advisory board. Fraternally he is a member of the Knights of Columbus.
