Show War-Shocked Children Are Restored to Health LONDON. Thirty war-shocked children, taken from homes all over London, are being restored to healthy happiness by Dr. Anna Freud, daughter of the famous psychoanalyst. The children are being cured by psychological treatment in a large house in Hampstead, formerly a Swedish hotel. With the financial aid from the British War Relief Society So-ciety of America, the house has been equipped as a psychological clinic. The clinic is under the direction of Mrs. Dorthy Burlingham, an American, who is married to an Englishman. Mrs. Burlingham is assisted as-sisted by Miss Lillian Bowes-Lyon, a cousin of the queen. Twenty-eight of the children undergoing un-dergoing treatment are under four years old. Their bunks are so arranged ar-ranged that they can hear little of guns or bombs if there is an air-raid in progress. This was one of the first things arranged by Dr. Anna Freud. Many of the children were badly shaken when they were taken into the clinic but most of them have recovered from their unnerving experiences. |
