BY-MARJORIE VAN DE WATER . Sclence Service Staff Writer WASHINGTON, Aug. 8.—Speed is the secret of ¢he atom's power— the speed with which the electrons revolve around the.atom's nuclear heart. And it is'by means of speed that this power has been released, Speed is one form of energy,

HELP SHORTAGE GITED IN KILLING

Patient at State Hospital Fatally Bludgeoned.

One of the most serious institutional help shortages in Indiana has been spotlighted here through the fatal bludgeoning of a 58-year-old patient at Central State hospital for mental patients. A single nurse was attending between 200 and 300 patients early Sunday when Mrs, Frances Kennedy, 1805 Olive st, was struck by an aluminum “night vessel” wielded by another inmate, Her assailant, described by Dr. Max A. Bahr, hospital superintendent, as having given vent to “an irresistible impulse,” was identified as Miss Mabel Brooks, 43. She has {been an inmate at Central State hospital for 17 years. | Mrs. Kenedy, was to have been taken home permanently the day |she was killed, according to her | husband, Albert Kennedy. He said |she had been confined to the hos{pital because of “memory lapses.” Mrs. Kennedy's body was discovered at 6 a. m, Sunday. Usually 4 Nurses

Dr. Bahr said that ordinarily four ‘night nurses are assigned to the division in which Mrs. Kennedy {was slain,” ’ ol | He said the hospital's normal 1325-member staff is short by 90 employees. He also disclosed that

{there aren't enough , “isolated i

| 'rooms” to house all of the institu-

[tion's violent patients.

Dr. Bahr said some obedient pa{tients had even -been recruited for !domestic duties in the institution. | At the time of the Sunday attack, the superintendent said, the day attendants were sleeping. He ‘asserted that it was “impossible” [for the single nurse in that section {to oversee-all patients at all times. He said there were only 17 patients lin that particular ward when the | incident occurred. The nurse, he explained, spends the night “mak'ing the rounds” of wards under her supervision. any Outbreaks Nof Rare

| Dr. Bahr added that “temper outbreaks” are hot uncommon among the patients, He said serious injuries or deaths from such scenes occur infrequently, however. “Certain types of patients are stricken with irresistible impulses, during which they are compelled to expend energy,” the doctor remarked, vo “This is the first time during her 17-year stay here that Miss Brooks had acted in such a manner, We had no way of amticipating her ac-

nate outbreak.” When questioned later, Miss Brooks appeared completely ignorant of the assault, Dr. Bahr asserted.

No Outcry Heard

He said Mrs. Kennedy had not {cried out when she was attacked. | - Dr. Bahr complained that he had | been unable to fill low-paid posi« {tions at the hospital as rapidly as | they were vacated by employees at{tracted to war plants by higher salaries. He asserted this is a problem which “apparently can't be | solved until the war is over.” | Services for Mrs. Kennedy were (held at 10 a. ‘m. today ip the Tolin | funeral home, with burial in Crown Hill. Other survivors, besides her husband, are a son, Albert J. Kennedy Jr. of Indianapolis and four [sisters and two brothers.

EX-AIR MINISTER

DEFENDS PETAIN

Says Marshal Gave Funds To Aid Allies.

By HERBERT G. KING United Press Staff Correspondent PARIS, Aug. 8.—Gen. Jean Bergeret, former Vichy air minister, testified at Marshal Henri Philippe Petain’s- trial today. that the Vichy French kept close tab on German air opérations and sent the information they gleaned to London. The 15th day of Petain’s trial opened at 1:20 ,pj. m. Bergeret, French air force general, was the first witness of the day, the 23d for the defense, and the 44th of the trial. Bergeret told the high court judge and jury that under his Vichy ministry the French air force |served as a clandestine intelligence | agency for London, keeping the {allies filled in on what the luftwaffe was doing. “Petain Supplied Funds” Petain supplied funds for these operations right up to the time Bergeret left the Vichy air ministry in April, 1942, the witness said. “He had to take many clandestine measures, because the armistice commission was trying to prevent the air force from becoming endangered by fhe axis,” he said. The next witness was Jean Bertheolt, Vichy minister of transport and communications. He testified that in the 22 months he was in the Vichy cabinet he saw Petain weekly and the marshal always supported him in resisting German demands.

Defied Nazi Command

Adm, Henry Blehaut testified that Petain defied a Nazi demand that he go from Vichy to Belfort on Aug. 19, 1944, when the allied armies were sweeping across France. He testified that the Germans] tried to prevent Petain from re-| turning to France at the end of the European war, and only after 36 hours negotiation was he able to| leave Germany by way of Switzer-| land. i Gen. Jacques Campet, chief of| Petain’s military household at Vichy for three years, testified that Petain never believed in a German victory and maintained a clandestine bu-| reau for planning the secret mobilization of the French army.
