Insanity Report Finds District Needs More Care Facilities
The Board of Charities urged a 310,990 appropriation for psychopathic wards and a 50,000 home school for feeble minded children. It recommended enforced treatment for drug and alcohol victims and keeping the insane at St Elizabeth, with proposals for a separate institution. The report notes rising insanity in the District and questions of overcrowding and aftercare, while opposing broad changes in current methods. It also records pro and anti prohibition sentiment among local business leaders and residents.
