MAYOR’S PROCLAMATION Learn and Serve Coffee Day Whereas, May is observed nationally as Mental Health Month; and Whereas, The Congressional Joint Commission on Mental Illness and Health has stated, “More than half of the patients in most state hospitals receive no active treatment of any kind designed to improve their mental condition,” and Whereas, The American Medical Association has called | mental illness “America’s most pressing and complex health problem,” and Whereas, Citizens of our community will be gathering in the great American tradition to drink coffee with their friends and neighbors and to talk about Indiana’s number one health problem, and Whereas, Talk will be transformed into positive action which will help Indiana’s mentally ill and reunite them with their families Now, therefore, I, Carl W. Gerber, Mayor of Decatur, Ind., do hereby proclaim April 27, 1964 as “Mental Health Learn and Serve Coffee Day” and do urge all citizens to participate in this productive event and join their Adams County Association for Mental Health. Signed Carl W. Gerber This 27 Day of April, 1964 Mental Health Month May is Mental Health month, and it would be a wonderful thing if each of us could learn a little bit more about this problem —a problem that faces each of us right here in Decatur, and Adams county, as well as elsewhere. Mental illness is not a matter of shame — it is a matter of ill health, and should be treated as such. And it should be treated — not just ignored. Mentally ill persons won’t get better if you just pretend it isn’t happening — they need treatment badly, so they can fit into this cruel world of ours. There is no such thing as an “uncurable” — there may be some whom we don’t seem to help as much as others, but new treatments, new methods are being developed every day. - yb Learn what you can about mental health, what we need for adequate diagnosis, treatment, and help. It isn’t just someone else’s problem — it is yours and mine! , ’ Editorial written by Dick Heller

The boy’s hands were also bloodied, as if he tried to protect himself, police said. Will County Coroner Willard Blood said John’s death was “definitely homicide."
