Seven Point
Menial Care
Plan Given
Charlotte, March 20.—A .even
point program for care ami treat
ment of ths feeble-minded citizens
ol this State was advocated in a
report issued today by the North
Carolina Mental Hygiene Society at
its headquarters here.
Most of these objectives, the re
port raid, were recommended in a
report made by Dr. Maurice II.
Greenhill of Duke University.
Although Xi'itli Carolina has in
the last two years "made great pro
gress in bettering the ο edition of
its insane citizens, little note has
been taken of a problem just as
large, jusl as confused, just as im
portant to the mental he:.1th of the
Stale—ι he care and treatment of the
feeble-minded.' said the report.
The seven-point program said the
State is lacking cither completely
or partly in.
"1. Early identification of the chil
dren needing care: H. central regis

Receivers c r ihc Seaboard Air Line
Railway company told the Interstate
commerce commission today that in
stallations of modem block signal
systems over 1,373 miles of track
would cost 810,000,000.
The railroad's statement was made
in a brief answering the commis
sion's order to show why the ' arricr
should not revise il- existing block
signal systems on all lines where a
speed of 50 miles or mars is author
ized.
The road mileage affected by the
commission's show cause order to
taled 1,373.8.
The carrier said that from 1941
through 1015 it installed automatic
block signals on 285.4 miles of road
and 331.8 miler of track. Tt added
that this increased the 549.1 miles
of road and 574 miles of trar,< previ
ously protected by automa'i block
signals by 51.8 per cc·.t and 57.3 per
~ent. respectively.
The carrier suggested that the
three lines which should first be
equpiped are in this order:
1. Between Hamlet. N. C. and S i
annah. Ga. by way of Columbia
C. a distance of 240.1 miles.
2. Between Coleman, Fla.. and Mi
iini, Fla.. 274 miles.
3. Between Coleman, Fla., and
Ta'rico, Fla., 66.5 miles.
The carrier asked that the commis
ion. in issuing an Older in the Cas;
ι et to "alleviate so far as posribl·
•he fVancial burden" upon the rail
< iad and "assure time essential to
-ecui'c ritical materials and to ex
pand and train construction and
maintenance forces in an orderly and
efficient manner."

cent days seven persons have re
