"How about proof on this point?" He asked Rousselot to cite an instance in which a Birchwas confined to: a mental er institution because of political beliefs. He also asked for proof that persons of 'Socialistic' stamp dominate the psychiatric staffs of mental hospitals. Terms Story Fake Hattersley said it is ap old and false cry that money provided by congress in 1956 to provide the new State of Alaska with mental health facilities was used to create a "concentration camp for disbelievers." He said this is another implication in the Rousselot statement, an idea long since discredited. "We want to hear some real, concrete, documented evidence of the allegations you made in your quoted statement," wrote Hattersley. "In other words, Rousselot, I am calling your bluff.

In my opinion you are guilty of an irresponsible statement and I don't intend to let you get away with it." He said it is up to Rousselot to prove the statement is not irresponsible. Dr. Paul G. Hattersley, president of the Sacramento Area Mental Health Association, today accused former John R. irresponsible Roussean statement on mental programs.

Hattersley referred to a statement by Rousselot, district director of the John Birch Society, in which, according to press reports, the former congressman "agreed with a questioner who said the administration's mental health program is a weapon used to whisk disbelievers into institutions for Socialistic brainwashing." It was made at a Birch Society rally last week in Bakersfield. Calls For Proof Hattersley, in a letter to Rousselot, 'asked for documented proof to support the statement. "Anyone can make irresponsible statements," Hattersley wrote. "You refer to 'disbelievers' who are given Socialistic brainwashing.

Burglars took $1,000 in cash from a 500 pound safe in the Woolworth Department Store here. Colonel Richard W. Dempsey told an audience at the Sacramento National Security Seminar in the Hotel El Dorado today the threat of Communism in the emerging continent of Africa is one of the greatest perils to the free world. "We can't fail to be concerned with Africa's future because of its importance strategically, politically and economically," he said. "The portent of the tide of nationalism sweeping over Africa overshadows other considerations because, as in the Congo, most of the peoples of Africa simply aren't educated and trained to self government.

"In the absence of such trained and educated people, independence leads to chaos and chaos opens the countries to Communism. The threat of Communism is one of our greatest perils. "The continent is made up of a mass of contrasts and anomalies and is interwoven with numerous ties which in no way follow the political boundaries of the countries. "There are language ties, racial ties, religious ties, tribal ties and some tenuous but important economic ties. These ties, in combination with the tremendous illiteracy of the mass of Africans, create a situation about as bewildering as can be found anywhere."

Erb. He said the seven captive nations of Poland, East Germany, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria and Albania have been the centers of controversy and wars for centuries.

He said they have made not any longer produce enough food to feed their pop- ulations. US Will Determine Southeast Asia Trend Navy Captain E.

Scott McCuskey said the policies of the United States will determine to a large extent whether countries of southeast Asia will follow the path of Democracy or fall prey to Communism. He added the outcome of competition between Indian Democracy and Chinese Communism may decide the fate of representative government in Asia. "Our mutual security program appears to be giving these new nations part of the lift they need," 1 he said. Middle East Value To West Is Cited Colonel L. L.

Stefen called the Middle East a land mass of great strategic importance to the United States and western Europe. He said this is why the United States proclaimed the Eisenhower doctrine which stresses our interest in the preservation of the independence and integrity of the nations there. He said the free world cannot allow the Middle East to be drawn behind the Iron Curtain. Yoloans Vote On Tax Override Yolo County voters are deciding whether they want a $1 school tax override in the eastern portion of the county. The money, school officials say, is needed to reduce the size of classes and raise teachers' salaries to competitive levels.

Manion said the quotation was only one third of what Welch said, the other portion being alternatives which said Eisenhower either could have been "a very clever politician or incredibly stupid."

How can I avoid checking account service charges? THIS IS A QUESTION PEOPLE OFTEN ASK AND HERE IS THE THOUGHTFUL ANSWER WE GIVE AT THE BANK OF CALIFORNIA Service charges are based on two the number of checks you write each month and the balance you keep in your account. So there are two things you can do about them. First, write fewer checks. money' checks can be written less often if you make each one bigger.) Second, try to keep a higher balance in your account.

We'll be glad to tell you how high is high enough. If you can't take either of these steps, there's another alternative.
