Plans for improving the life of blind, deaf, crippled and mentally maladjust- ed children were announced today by William J. Ellis, head of & committee on this subject, which is to report next week to the President’s White House Child Health Conference. Mr. Ellis, who is a commissioner of the State Department of Institutions and Agencies of New Jersey, urged au- dition measurements of every child in the United States to determine the de- gree of acuteness of hearing or deaf- ess. “The hard-of-hearing child, in the @great majority of cases, can receive his education successfully in the ordinary public schools, provided certain special attentions are given him by his regular teachers and special classes in lip read- ing and in speech are maintained” the report said “Jt is urgent every school system, urban and rural, make some provision for its hard-of-hearing chil- dren.” Need Braille Classes. For the blind, the report recommend- ed establishment of Braille classes in mare large cities, relieving the pressure on State schools. The committee said the per capita cost of educating blind children was higher, but that it was ‘“insignificant pared with what it would be if children were allowed to become rate public charges.” Waste entailed in orthopedic surgery “without adequate after care” was pro- nounced “one of the tragedeis in the stary of the crippled child.” The com- mitfee urged a legal method in every State to find all crippled children, co- ordinate the work done for them and provide for part of the cost of their care and education. “The State should safeguard the quality of service rendered the crippled child,” the report said. “Facilities should be made available to them re- gardless of their financial circumstances or place of residence.” Preventive Methods Stressed. e possibility of preventing many -3::‘1 breakdowns was stressed. “Prevention of mental maladjustments would strike at the very root of our most pressing social problems, suicide, divorce, delinquency, crime, industrial maladjustment,” the committee said. As an integral part of the public school system, the child experts held, idance clinics should function in deal- with tantrums, stealing, oversensi- tiveness, day-dreaming, cruelty, rest- lessness, morbid fears and of behavior problems “symptomatic of un- derlying mental stress.” OFFICIAL DISCOVERS WASHINGTON PICTURE Postmaster General Brown Expects to Copy Richmond, Va., Portrait on Stamp for 1932.
