Disciisses Mental Health Aliiiude

From the clinics, from practising doctors. from liospltal records. there are reports of great numbers of illnesses which are caused or aggravated by emotional disturb- ances. said Dr. J. A. Macvicar. in a statement regarding Mental Health Week. These illnesses are not the ones that are sent to men- tal hospitals, but the sufferers live a long and miserable life in and out of doctors' offices and general hospitals.

Some of these people have been tense, "nervous", angry and frust- rated. sad. lonely or afraid for so long their bodies become affected with such things as ulcers, high blood pressure. chronic diarrhoea tcoiitisi, skin rashes, headaches and muscle pains, etc. Then their misery is twofold-with nervous disturizqnccs plus bodily illness. You all know how common such diseases nre. ,Now psychiatrists find that many of these diseases can be helped. and in some cases cured by having the patients dis- cuss their ”nervousness" and find- ing the answers to their einotionai troubles.

Ill-health or disease is iidis-ease" (unsatisfactory case). which in- volves the physical. psychological and spiritual, and that all these areas mtist be in A satisfactory state if a person is to acquire or maintain health.

There will never be enough psy- chiatrists to look after all the emotionally troubled people who ask for or need psychiatric help. Nor should there ever be. Many who now go to psychhttrmts could have been helped long ago by pro- per understanding of their attit- udes, feelings and sensations in their bodies. This understanding can be given by parents, clergy. nurses, teachers, and doctors if these individuals will learn to dis- cuss illness from the emotional angle as freely as immunization. tuberculosis. good posture, and good food are discussed now.

By Michael Newmarch

LONDON. (AP)-On their own after 12 1-2 years in ilDVEI'Hl1'19m harness, the men who buy Britain 5 grain began scouring the world last week to feed man and beast.

They have a. tough assignment.

The government ended its war- time system of bulk-purchasing wheat. flour and animal feeding stuffs last week and told traders to use private-enterprise channels to acquire the huge amount of SYN" Britain imports each year.

The big switchover came at a critical time. This nation has just walked out of the International Wheat Agreement. complaining the maximum price under the agree- ment of 52.05 a bushel is too high.

As a result, Britain, worlds largest importer of wheat. must shop in the free market, where prices are higher still.

The government also announced all grain subsidies-except a. pay- ment to bakers for one grade of bread-will end at the next har- vest. Any increase in grain costs will fall directly on consumers.

Private enterprise thus looks as though it is taking the rap for in- creased bread prices unless Bri- tain ran break the world market and set wheat prices tumbling.

If Britain succeeds in buying below the 32.05 a bushel level on the free market, wheat agreement prices inevitably would fall too.

Britain is talking about 32 a bushel.

Canada. the l7iiiied States and Australia. all are certain to resist British pressure for cheaper wheat.

But British grain men, who sol- idly backed the government's walk- out of the wheat agreeinent, are not despondenl.

World wheat invciitories are building tip, and are expected here to hit peacetime records in the exporting countries before 1053 is over.
