THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNEAU, ALASKA Nation's Foremost Psychiatrist Makes Survey Alaska’s llls Aside from the possible construc- tion in Alaska of a psychiatric hos- pital to care for the territory’s mentally ill, there are other im- portant aspects to the mental health problem of the territory, ac- cording to Dr. Winfred Overholser, now touring Alaska at the head of a Department of the Interior | “task group” investigating the prob- lems of mental health in the north. Whatever the outcome of the in-| vestigation, Alaskans can be sure that their problems as regard men- tal health are considered seriously by a man who knows his business and who has the wisdom and compassion to deal with the prob- lems presented to him. Dr. Overholser, superintendent of {the Federal Government's St. Eliz- abeth hospital in Washington, D. C., and professor of psychiatry at| George Washington university, sees as the first need of the north, Con- gressional action and such territor- ial legislation as would be nec- essary in changing regulations re- garding admission of mental cases to institutional care. Change of Law Alaska's laws require that mentally disabled person be tried | by a jury, be treated as a criminal, | possibly be lodged in jail and com- . mitted to an institution before he | can get psychiatric care from the government. It was Dr. Overholser wiose per- sistent crusading for a change in the law of the District of Colum- { bia corrected a similar situation | in the nation’s capital. And that| was not many years ago. Only two states in the union still | require a jury trial of psychiatric | patients. Provision for hospital admission for ‘mental care must be changed | —and that is almost a demand from Dr. Overholser. Next, the territory should provide some fac- ilities for psychiatric care this side of institutional or custodial care. The whole problem of the care of the mentally ill in Alaska is com- plicated by the tremendous size of | the Territory, its small population and the lack of psychiatric facil- ities and personnel. In all of the territory, there s only one psychiatrist ~in Anchor- age. One difficulty of establishing a psychiatric hospital in Alaska, as Dr. Overholser sees it now, might be the staffing of an institution. The scientist called attention to the fact that no care is available | in the territory for the psychotic person who would benefit from such care in a general hospital,*for the person who has psychiatric problems but is “not crazy,” for the person whose problems trans- late into physical disability, nor for children in the schools, not necessarily delinquent, but whose problems as children grow into psychiatric disabilities because of lack of treatment. Suggestion For Alaska “There are many relatively acute psychotic episodes amenable to treatment which could be cared for in general hospitals. Many such hospitals have suitable facilities and | more are providing them. Perhaps this would be a help in Alaska,” Dr. Overholser said. With Dr. Overholser is Dr. Dale C. Cameron, assistant director, Na- tional Institute of Mental Health, | U. 8. Public Health Service, and through the public health service there is available to states through national subsidy these aides to t.he care of the mentally ill: 1.- Clinical activities for the care of mental patients. 2. The teaching of psychiatry to medical men. 3. Funds for psychiatric re- search.. \ Traveling with Dr. Dverhol.ur and Dr. Cameron, arranging their meetings, is Wil Goding, repre- senting the Division of Territories and Insular Possessions, Depart- ment of the Interior. Goding, who was born in Skagway, was, with a Tlingit tribe member, the only REMEMBER DEAR! TOMORROW NIGHT IS “Ladies’ Night” at BAILEY’S BAR COME ON OVER— JOIN THE GANG! Shuffleboard Contest - (Every Wednesday Night) a 1 Alaskan native-born present at the meeting in Sitka last week. All in the party are enthusiastic about their trip through the terri- tory and their cordial receptions at the towns where they have called. Mrs. Overholser, who is accom- panying her husband just so she can see Alaska, claims credit for the fine weather that has follow- ed them so far, “due, I am sure to the four leaf clovers I found at Angoon,” she said. Off To West, Interior With Dr. James T. Googe, the party were PNA passengers to An- chorage Saturday, and will fly to Fairbanks, Nome and Kotzebue be- fore returning south in September. Though they have lived in Washington, D. C, for a number {of years, both Dr. and Mrs. Over- holser are from Massachusetts. So many positions of importance and honor can be claimed by Dr. |eases for the State of Massachu- setts, past president of the Ameri- can Psychiatric Association, pres- ident of board of managers Wash- ington Institute of Mental Hygiene, moderator of the Unitarian Church {—and three university degrees—his |first from Harvard. | In spite of al that, Dr. and Mrs. Overholser would rather talk about Alaska and its thrilling scen- ery than of Dr. Overholser’s place as one of the nation’s top psychiat- rists. They were in Switzerland a year ago “and there was nothing in Switzerland more magnificant than | we have seen flying to Juneau, or flying to Sitka. You have a won- derful country. We are having a | wonderful trip.” But anyone who talks to :Dr. { Overholser can be sure it is not a “junket.” There will be good from i the trip, if it is nothing else but |a change in our laws. |PRINCE GEORGE IN | FROM SOUTH MONDAY Arriving at 5:30 o'clock trom Vancouver and sailing at 11:30 o'clock for Skagway, the T.S.S.
