THE possibility of a British battle flect being sent out to the Far East mentioned, as a warning to Japan, by the Prime Minister, in Parliament on Aug. 4, has aroused the keenest interest in London-especially in view of the cur- rent reinforcement of the Singapore garrison, says a London Correspondent,

Opposition To Clergy Healers

BY 102 votes to 75 the British

Medical Association Con- ference at Aberdeen recently rejected a proposal to recognise psycho-therapeutic practice by clergy and other lay persons,

The decision was takeri following a report by the Mental Health Com- mittee of the Association, who stated that evidence had been received from Protestant and Catholle clergy, and organizations Interested in the pro- motion of psychological activities by the clergy, that the clergy had valu- able opportunities of preventive work

in the field of mental health.

It was represented that they should be trained in medical psychology no that they might be able not only to

but also to resolve the mental conflicts of

SAFEGUARDS

The committee recommended number of safeguards.

Dr.

C. Gordon (Woolwich), moving the recommendation, said that one of the arguments in favour of some sort of recognition by the medical profession of lay psycho- therapists was that there was a large mumber of people who required some sort of psycho-therapeutic advice or treatment, and that there were at present comparatively few medical men or women adequately trained to give that advice or treatment.

"it is interesting to note," said Dr. Gordon, "that the claims of the

clergy come principally from the Anglican community and the English Free Churches, and that the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland find the Roman Catholle community emphatically declare that while it would be very envantageous that their clergy should be instructed in modern psychological methods, they do not think that they should set up as psycho-therapists" (Applause.)

Mr. Theodore Craig (Newcastle) said that the ordinary practitioner could not And time to do paycho- therapeutic work efficiently, and added: "Incficiently done, psycho- analysis makes patients worse, and they lose faith in almost everything," mid appinuse that the peculiar posi- Dr. F.
