Regarding occupational therapy. We all know that this is a very important method of treatment. It should always, as Colonel Evans said, be directed treatment and should not be given in a hap-hazard way. All of our occupational therapy treatment has been given a definite prescription. For eighteen months we have had a bright young medical officer interested in this subject, whom we have made reconstruction officer and who observes the effect of treatment and changes the prescriptions of the other physicians when he finds the treatment given does not have the desired effect. With reference to reconstruction aides, every week our reconstruction officer gives them a talk on some phase either of occupational therapy or physio-therapy or of mental disorders. We cover any subject in which the neuro-psychiatrist should be interested. This officer has devised a system of observation which the aides are supposed to make on patients and which they do make on each patient who takes occupational therapy and which is looked over by our reconstruction officer and the officer in special charge of the case. We are getting up data and statistics which we think will be of interest to the general profession when it is finally published, DR. TREADWAY: I think that the Public Health Service has had a very grave and serious problem affecting the N.P. Veterans of the World War. We have included in that term, besides the mental and nervous cases, the neuro-surgical cases as well. There are a number of problems which still confront us, and one of these is the question of personnel. I am sorry that Dr. Kolb did not say something about the training school he had started in connection with his hospital. We sent some young officers over to learn technique and methods of handling the psycho-neurotics. We have also sent some officers to the Public Health Service clinic at the Psychopathic Institute in Boston and we hope that some of our other hospitals will start a similar school. The question of personnel is an exceedingly grave one. A great many young men want to become surgeons. They are not interested in mental or nervous cases. They want to go into general medicine. Last year we sent two officers to the Southern University and to the Northern and Western universities to meet the graduating classes and the internes, and from that we have been recruiting some younger men who are manifesting considerable interest. We hope to get additional personnel by interesting the young graduate. Another problem is the question of creating, in connection with General hospitals, wards where patients of this sort may receive at the beginning of their treatment, their preliminary examination, where they may be evacuated home with compensation or without compensation, or evacuated to a prolonged treatment hospital for further care. It has sometimes been difficult to get enough men, trained personnel, to man these wards.
