Proper Psychiatric Education Lacking

By DEOS SMITH UPI Science Editor NEW YORK (UPD It could be physical illness due to excessive mental anxiety is increasing. On the other hand, it could be that the ability of the average doctor to recognize this cause of illness is increasing. Dr. A. E. Bennett, professor of psychiatry and expert on such illnesses, can’t be sure which has happened But he is sure too many physicians without specialized psychiatric training still err. "The fundamental cause has been lack of proper psychiatric education in medical schools," he said. "These errors are probably not as frequent today as they were but mismanagement of > these patients is still a disgrace, and one of medicine’s great weaknesses." Bennett was talking about excessive anxiety which rebounds physically and suggests symptoms of organic disease. Way back in 1936, he looked over 100 neurotic general hospital patients, most with "anxiety state.” Many Operation Unnecessary OF the 100, 72 had been admitted "with diagnoses of organic diseases, such as gastrointestinal < disease, hyperthyroidism, cardiac :

and cerebral disease and other systemic diseases." These 100 had undergone 179 operations "and at least one-half were unnecessary,” Bennett added. In 1946, 10 years later, he studied the medical histories of 150 psychiatric patients and found that over the years they had received "496 medical treatments for almost all organic diseases, 244 surgical procedure and 71 treatments, often prolonged, by cultists, quacks and others.” And what was wrong with all of them al! along was excessive anxiety. He is a professor of psychiatry at the University of California, Berkeley Campus, and was lecturing general medical practitioners on "the anxiety state" in the technical organ of the American Academy of General Practice. His beginning was an effort to arrive at the degree of anxiety which is normal. "It is normal to be concerned, solicitous, worried and restless about our problems,” he said. “Fearful anticipation of potential unpleasantness is normal and warns us of trouble. This emotion is necessary to motivate accomplishment. Usually, our desire for accomplishment further

increases the degree of normal anxiety. Emotions Drive Humans "These -emotions get us up at 7 a.m„ keep us on the job, make us meet our responsibilities and drive us to do our best. When we are ambitious, we have considerable anxiety. We have feelings of insecurity and lack of self-assurance and confidence until we reach our goals. Worry and anxiety are normal useful emotions when we can control them’’ But when anxiety becomes excessive it is "like steam under pressure, and when it explodes it may attach itself to any situation in the patient’s life,” and produce agitation and tension which he converts into pathological fears "of various diseases such as insanity, heart trouble or cancer.” That is what makes excessive anxiety a bobby trap for an unwary doctor. Psychiatry has a good record of successful treatment of anxiety states but the mild ones can be treated successfully by the average non-psychiatric doctor. “Any doctor who understands and becomes a sympathetic listener can establish a workable rapport,” Bennett continued. “Common sense counseling and guidance ean help most patients regain their self-control. The main problem is teaching the patient to become aware of the emotional causes of his tension and anxiety.” Fairway Employes Are Honored Sunday The Fairway Restaurant, Inc., feted 21 employes at a recognition dinner Sunday. The occasion honored employes with more than five years of service, most of them Fairway employes for from eight to 12 years. The loyalty and hard work of these employes were lauded by Cletus Miller, Fairway president.

(UPD — Radcliffe College girls staged a reverse panty raid on Harvard Sunday night and touched off a noisy demonstration involving 2,000 students. Police broke up the disturbance and arrested eight Harvard men on charges of disturbing the peace and alleged property damage. They were to be arraigned today. There were no injuries and no major damage. The uprising, blamed on spring fever and pre-exam pressure, started when 150 Radcliffe girls marched a mile to Harvard Yard and shouted to men in Winthrop House, a male dormitory, to throw them underwear. Some of the Harvards threw shorts and others dropped water bombs and bars of soap. One Radcliffe girl said the raid was planned early Sunday. As the girls began returning to their dormitories, the Harvards began grouping for a panty raid on Radcliffe’s nine dormitories. At one time there were at least 2,000 men and women involved in the demonstrations, officials said.

Offers Compromise On Common Market

GENEVA (UPD—West German Economics Minister Ludwig Erhard today offered a compromise plan to end the deadlock between the United States and the Common Market countries on tariff reductions. At a private meeting of the Common Market countries, Erhard suggested combining the U. S. plan for "across the board” cuts and the Common Market plan for a varied level of cuts. The Erhard plan has been presented to Maurice Brasseur, Common Market group chairman, to be drafted formally, a Common Market spokesman said. It will then be studied by U.S. delegation chief Christian A. Herter, former secretary of state currently representing the United States at the conference of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade. Informed sources said Herter would leave the conference Wednesday if no agreement had been reached by then and the consequences could be a serious as Britain's failure to join the Common Market last winter. An American source said that at first sight the U.S. delegation “is pretty cool” towards the Erhard proposal. French Finance Minister Valery Giscard D’Estaing described it as a “good compromise.” The plenary session was suspended while the draft plan was presented to the various delegations Earlier today, a three-hour meeting with the United States and Britain on one side and market members on the other broke up with-out reaching an agreement. “Nothing is settled,” an American delegate said. Herter led the Anglo-American

negotiators in the talks that ended shortly after midnight. He was to confer again today or Tuesday with the Common Market team, headed by Jean Rey, the market executive commissioner for external affairs. The issue is the amount of tariff reductions acceptable to the two sides. The United States is authorized to negotiate across the, board tariff cuts of up to 50 per cent. Better’s team can settle for less than 50 per cent, but the cuts must be the same for all products. The Common Market rejects this, charging that it favors U.S. business over European interests. The alternative is a sliding scale of tariff rates. Find No Compromise Both sides agree that tariffs should be cut to increase trade. The Europeans contend that the American plan would continue to protect certain U.S. products—chemicals, for example — from European competition. The United States says the European plan would reduce tariffs only by a total of 12 per cent. It does not consider this enough of a stimulus to trade. Thus far, no compromise has been found for the two views. The deadlock could have repercussions extending far beyond matters of trade. It could pit the United States and the British-led European free trade area against the Common Market in a bloc that might force the Common Market in a bloc that might force the Common Market nations to line up behind France’s “third force” ideas of its future.
