MENTAL DEFECTIVES.
THE DOMINION ACT. Per Press Association. NELSON. March 14. Major Dagger, the chairman at a meeting of the Nelson Hospital Board, expres3od disappointment that the Health Deportment, judging by the address of f)r. Gray at the recent conference of hospital boards, had lost all its enthusiasm for putting the Mental Defectives Amendment Act, 1928, into operation. All the fresh evidence since 1928 was in the direction of pushing, on with the reform of the present law. Political expediency was, in his opinion, the cause of the department’s lost enthusiasm for this reform.
