Democrats Rap Proposed Mental Hospital Plan SACRAMENTO (WNS) — The Democrats are dissatisfied with Governor Warren's mental hospital construction program. The dissatisfaction has led the party caucus of the state legislature to announce appointment of a special committee to investigate spending of the $100,000,000 in allocations already granted by the legislature plus the system of priorities by which hospital sites are chosen. Chairman of the committee, Byron Rumford, Oakland, said today that he already has plans for calling representatives of the mental hygiene department, the state architect, and the department of public works to see if the program has been living up to expectations and whether it will take care of future needs of the state. As a starter, Rumford said he is particularly interested in seeing if the state can do away with the rural hospitals now in use or limit them to caring for more easily curable patients while providing new facilities in urban areas for treatment of acute cases. Rumford pointed out that it is widely known that there are too few psychiatrists located in the rural facilities and the answer to the problem may lie in bringing patients to the cities where larger numbers of psychiatrists practice. Julian Beck was even more explicit in what the committee Pictured above is James Connell, actor and technician who will return to Holiday Stage for a third summer of professional stage plays opening in Tustin June 27.
