6 THE OSHAWA TiMas, AM. TESTIFIED AT HEARING Ronald Crevier, a former RCMP corporal testified at the Dorion hearing in Mont- real. The called was to investigate tions of attempted bribery made against a federal govern- ment assistant. --CP Photo Vicious Lie TORONTO (CP)--A message dropped from the window of Mercer Reformatory for Women Wednesday claimed a prisoner who talked to visiting members of the Ontario legis- lature was strapped and placed in confinement. A spokesman for the depart- ment of reform institutions said the note was '"'a vicious lie." He said Mercer officials have denied strapping anybody or placing anybody in detention. Two identical! notes, ad- dressed to Vernon Singer, Lib- eral member of the legis!ature for suburban Downsview, were dropped to a deliveryman and said "one of the girls he talked to was severely strapped and is now in confinement." Mr. Singer visited Mercer Tuesday along with two Lib- eral colleagues, James Trotter (Toronto Parkdale) and Leon- ard Braithwaite (Etobicoke). URGE DESTRUCTION They said, after their five- hour tour of the institution, that the reformatory should be torn down. They criticzed treatment of the prisoners, agreeing with an indictment of Mercer conditions reported last year by a grand jury. The Liberal members said they were told women sus- pected of having talked to members of the grand jury were disciplined later by ma- trons. Reform Institutions Minister Allan Grossman declined to comment on the allegations, noting that an official govern- ment inquiry is underway. Grossman Raps Some Criticism KITCHENER (CP) -- Allan Grossman, Ontario reforms in- stitutions minister, said Wed-| nesday night he "resents most) strongly" unjust criticism of| the staff now employed in cor-| rectional institutions through- out the province. | Mr. Grossman told the Kit-| chener: branch. of the John| Howard Society that without these dedicated staffs, progress in the field of penology in Can-| ada would have been far behind what it is today. He made no specific refer- ence to Mercer Reformatory for Women in Toronto which) came under fire last fall from| a grand jury for what it termed poor accommodation for pris- oners and unqualified staff. Tuesday, three Liberal mem- bers of the Ontario legislature visited the reformatory and echoed the grand jury's crit- icism. Mr. Grossman said that! much has been said recently of! the responsibility of the public) to the prisoner, but little men-| tion has been made of the of-| fender's responsiblity. He said his department's| duty was to keep yas long an 1 j | moved from society as long gs) necessary, but no longer necessary. Witch Doctors -- Rid In Therapy i} LIMA (AP)--Peruvian psychi-| atrists say witch doctors don't! know an aspirin from an anti-| biotic but are effective in group 'therapy treatment for mentally! disturbed patients. "Primitive witch doctors in the jungles are years ahead of us in some phases of group gal said Dr. Moises Lem- ig. He complained good-naturedly | that these "curanderos" often have more patients at their doors than do trained psychia- trists, | The curandero, Dr. Lemlig| said, uses every trick in his black magic bag to win the con- fidence of his patients and get) them to reveal' their symptoms. | In the jungles the witch doc- tors dance wildly around their patients, giving them sips of tranquillizing potions and en-| couraging them to shed their in- | hibitions by singing to weird music. Afterward, it is easier for the witch doctors to pry into the troubled thoughts of their pa- Thursdey, January 28, 1965 | tients, Dr. Lemlig added, | ZELLER'S Open Every Day From 9:30 Ades 6:00 P.M, Thursday and Friday 9:30 A.M. -- 9:00 P.M.
