all-purpose stadium in Salt Lake City to replace Derks field destroyed by fire Sept 24 will be presented to the Salt Lake City COMMiSSiOn soon for definite action City Parks Commissioner Fred Tedesco said Tuesday Mr Tedesco said lie favored financing the structure under a ISIan whereby citizens who would derive the benefits would pay the costs rather than calling upon all of the taxpayers for tunas Selection of a site whether it be at Pioneer park or some other place in the city will be left up to the city commission the city parks commissioner said Works Out Plan 1 Mr Tedesco said he had worked out a definite plan for the proposed structure which not only would be adequate for baseball but also a wide variety of other events following a series of meetings with leading businessmen sports enthusiasts and financiers of the city A delegation from the Salt Lake Chamber of Commerce headed by Gus Backman secretary la expected to attend Wednesday morning session of the city commission to urge reestablishment of a grandstand and adequate park so that the Salt Lake Bees and the Pioneer Baseball league may continue In a communication directed to the city commission Tuesday Mr' Backman said he was forwarding letters to the city from chambers of commerce of five other cities constituting membership in the Pioneer Baseball league calling attention to the necessity of providing facilities for use of the city's baseball team this coming season From the standpoint of business interests of the community It is absolutely essential that facilities necessary are provided to continue the goodwill that has been developed between Salt Lake City and neighboring communities Mr Backman contends Affects Entire League Financing of the baseball team In neighboring cities is dependent to a material extent on the financial success of the operation at Salt Lake City and without an adequate field the entire league will suffer he explained Mr Backman offered "any service the Chamber of Commerce can render in getting the facilities reestablished in time for the opening of the 1947 season" "In addition to the necessity of providing our own local people with first class baseball and in cooperation with our neighboring cities in bringing good baseball to them 1947 being our centennial year thousands of visitors will be in the city seeking various types of diversion We believe baseball games will be a real contribution in providing entertainment for our visitors" he said ternist with psychiatric interest can help feeling distressed as day after day he sees the unfortunate results of the handling of patients with neuroses or psychoses by physicians who took their diagnoses ready made from the reports of laboratory girls and roentgenologists and by surgeons who expected to make a diagnosis after entering the abdomen" Dr Mackay Chicago another commentator said: "Human sympathy is the good doctor's indispensable attribute He can never win confidence if he is impatient or disinterested or in a hurry to go golfing or hostile because the symptoms- are 'ridiculous and unreasonable' There is nothing unreasonable in medicine" By WILLIAM PATRICK Tribune Staff Writer The importance of the medical practitioner becoming "psychiatrically-minded" so that he can deal with more effectively with the large number of neurotic patients who seek his help is emphasized in an article which appeared some time ago in the Joural of the American Medical Assn Authors are Dr A Bennett and Mrs Bernice Engle Omaha Neb "Above all the article states 'medical men must learn that psychoneuromes and psychoses are mental illnesses not secondary to physical disease and that no form of rest cure drug therapy surgery or any approach directed to treating an emotional problem at a physical level is scientific" Dr Bennett asserts the "entire problem is too great for psychiatrists alone" and predicts that "all physicians of the future will have to practice some psychiatric medicine" I Identifies Theft Suspects University of Utah's Stadium Village which will be home for 302 families was inspected officially Tuesday by Sen Abe Murdock who together with others of the Utah congressional delegation voted for the Mead-Lanham act which made the facilities available Gov Herbert Maw and Dr A Ray Olpin university president took the senator on a tour of Stadium Village 40

Lucin where there is a CAA emergency landing field Carpenter related the story of the accident to the A A radio operator who immediately contacted the tower at Wendover Army air base and requested assistance The Army replied they would dispatch an emergency plane at once Bush replied that "the adm1n1stra4 tion has issued its order that it might be inadvisable to make public a report that might make worse the relationship between a federal and a state agency working to a common end when their relationship at present is not all that might be wished for" Refuses to Elaborate Just what was implied in that statement Mr Bush did not elaborate nor could he explain why all inquiries made of Commissioner Altmeyer and his deputy Mr Mitchel invariably would be referred to him He said those officials If available would only make the statement has was making as that Is their adopted policy and accorded with the decision of the Congress of course under its inquisitorial authority can

the next legislature Urges Greater Interest "Twenty years' practice of psychiatry in a general hospital and teaching of medical students" he says have convinced me that the most important problem before our profession is the need for greater interest and more accurate knowledge about psychiatry "Mistakes in diagnosis and treatment of patients with functional psychoneurotic psychosomatic or actual psychotic disorders are so common as gravely to discredit the acumen of the medical profession These mistakes encourage patients to make the rounds of doctors and even of cultists and quacks contribute largely to public dissatisfaction with medical care since benefits of treatment are only temporary and work heavy financial hardships which help increase the clamor for some system of

available 90 of the time in Utah amount to 1470000 horsepower or 335 of the nation's total potential said Mr Woolley and resources available 50 ek of the time could furnish another 1630000 horsepower or 279 of the nation's total Arizona ranked first among the mountain states for potential water power production with 846 of the national potential available 9 0 of the time Idaho placed second with 617 and Montana fourth I 298ro Mountain states with the lowest potential were Nevada with 62 and New Mexico with 13 Constructed storage reservoirs have been considered by the Geological Survey in making the estimates of power available under existing flow said Mr Woolley but no allowance has been made for possible future storage On the Colorado river primary potential power without storage

procure Utah's ter share of Colorado river development funds had resulted in many new industries going to surrounding states which could have been located here since Utah has the undeveloped natural resources which these industries require Surgery Gains Faster "Recent great advances in surgical technics chemotherapy and metabolic disorders have far surpassed the diagnosis and treatment of our largest group of those with emotional largely because the general medical man still ignores greatly improved psychiatric knowledge and methods Surely the psychiatric experience of this war will show medical men the necessity of requiring every graduate to know enough psychiatric medicine at least to recognize an illness as fundamentally psychic and if not himself competent to treat the illness to refer the patielt for proper psychiatric treatment Otherwise the patient is started on an endless round of medical and surgical consultations and treatments which result in eventual complete disorganization of his personality and invalidism from which the most skillful psychiatrist cannot rescue him" The writer declares that curricula of medical schools should be broadened to include more instruction in handling psychiatric problems so that the student can learn "to treat both the personality and the somatic 'bodily) disorder" Cites Students' Bole "Students must learn" he adds "to make positive diagnoses of neurotic illness on the evidence of emotional signs not as at present after long and often costly procedures to exclude organic signs They must also learn that neurotic persons may have organic pathologic changes and the disabling factors must be evaluated as organic functional or mixed" Dr Walter Alvarez noted internist of the Mayo clinic Roches ter Minn says in commenting
