Ponder Report On Liberalizing State Mental Health Laws
In Harrisburg the Senate Public Health and Welfare Committee will decide early next week whether to report a House approved measure liberalizing mental health laws. The bill would appoint a deputy welfare secretary trained as a psychiatrist for a five year term as commissioner of mental health and strip trustees of full power, giving the secretary dictatorial authority over institutions while boards act as advisers.
