Pay Hike Requests Slated by Signal Hill Officers and Firemen
Signal Hill police officers and firefighters plan a large turnout Monday night to press for higher pay before the City Council. Capt. Buck Oliman says salaries have lagged behind similar cities for five years and seeks an adjustment. Patrolmen average about $30 monthly less and sergeants about $60 less than eight comparable cities. The city has 18 police and 13 firemen. An attorney for the association will appear before the budget committee before the meeting. Mayor Moyle notes last year’s $23 raise plus $35 for each man to the orphans and widows fund, and says decisions on pay often come in June.

Hypnosis Questioned At Psychiatric Convention
Dr Bernard Teitel told the American Psychiatric Association in San Francisco that hypnosis has little value in modern psychiatry. He cited seven cases where hypnosis led to further referral, warning that a wholesale return to hypnotism risks harming patients and the public mind. He argued hypnosis can undermine patient coping and empower the hypnotist with grandiose delusions.
