TRUSTEES' REPORT To His Excellency the Governor and the Honorable Council: The Trustees of the Boston State Hospital have the honor to submit herewith their twenty-seventh annual report covering the year ended November 30, 1935. The detailed operations of the year are shown in the reports of the Superintendent and Treasurer, which are appended. P.D. 84 • : Change in Membership The death of Mr. John A. Kiggen in January brought to an end the service of an esteemed colleague who had been a member of the Board for sixteen years. At their February meeting the Trustees adopted the following minute: Resolved. That the Trustees of the Boston State Hospital desire to place on record their high appreciation of their late colleague, Mr. John A. Kiggen, who died on January 6, 1935. Mr. Kiggen was first appointed in 1914 and with a brief intermission had been a member until his death, just previous to which he had been reappointed for another term. His deep interest in the institution, his faithful attendance when his business did not require his absence from the city, and his valued advice based on broad business experience and knowledge of public affairs were an asset to the Trustees, and his kindly humor and pleasant personality made him a most agreeable associate. The Trustees join in expressing to his family most heartfelt sympathy in their great loss. : In March, Mr. Thomas F. Fallon was appointed for the balance of Mr. Kiggen 's term. Patients in the Care of the Hospital At the end of the year there were 2,313 patients in the hospital and 12 in family care. The average daily number for the year was 2,309.28 as compared with 2,260.41 for the preceding year. Although very much over the quota assigned to this hospital and in spite of transfers, the daily population tends to increase. As the various classifications do not increase equally, there is necessarily a considerable congestion in some of the wards. Financial Statement The appropriation for maintenance for the past year was $935,730.00. The ex- penditures amounted to $929,030.00, giving a weekly cost per patient of $7,737. The estimate for maintenance for the coming year, based on a population of 2,295, is as follows: Personal services . .... $538,280.00 Travel, transportation and office expenses 8,875.00 Food . , . ., .. 220,700 . 00 Clothing and materials . .. 36,550.00 Religious instruction 2,080.00 Furnishings and household supplies 43,200.00 Medical and general care. 25,675.00 Heat and other plant operation. 97,699.00 Farm . 7,850.00 Garage and grounds 18,342.00 Repairs, ordinary . 19,995.00 Repairs and renewals 32,585.00 Total . $1,051,831.00 Construction The buildings erected by federal aid through the Emergency Public Works Com- mission, consisting of a remodelled power plant, a laboratory and mortuary building, a building for tuberculous patients, a building for 200 male employees, a building for the West office and 87 female employees, three officers' cottages, and a carpenter shop, have been completed with slight exceptions, but for the most part are awaiting equipment. The equipment has been partially delivered and is all under contract but the delay has been most vexatious. The power plant is in operation and with its alternative use of either coal or oil and its alternating current machinery the hospital secures an adequate and admirable service. The laboratory and mortuary and the carpenter shop are occupied, and the other buildings should be very soon available for use. Although $1,106,253 has been thus expended for improvements, the hospital is still far from complete on a modern standard. It lacks an assembly hall, suitable kitchens and dining rooms, officers' residences, and a number of minor buildings. 4 P.D. 84 In spite of valuable assistance by federal relief projects, much needs to be done in road building, grading and underground wiring, steam and drainage services. Finally, there is the great fire hazard in the stucco buildings which should be re- placed by fireproof construction. When this is done the hospital will have been almost entirely rebuilt. When the state acquired the property, it consisted of two separate units mostly of stucco and wood construction and accommodating only 764 patients. As it has grown, service buildings were added, but for the most part these were not constructed large enough for the ultimate population. The total construction expenditures with those needed to complete the plant may be as great as the cost of an entirely new hospital, but it is to be remembered that the amount paid to the City of Boston was not in excess of the value of the land. The legislature at its last session appropriated $13,000 for the continuation of the iron fence, and $26,800 for equipping some of the buildings with sprinklers. These projects have not yet been undertaken, but the Emergency Public Works Com- mission has allotted a sufficient appropriation supplementing the state appropria- tion to provide for the complete sprinkling of the hospital. The new buildings for employees are no more than adequate to house the em- ployees in service two years ago. The new 48-hour law calls for 160 additional employees and for these there is no housing provision, and there will have to be a cash allowance in lieu of maintenance. General Operations The progress of the year has been uneventful except for a brief epidemic of measles and a fire that destroyed the roof of one of the buildings in the East Group. The patients were removed rapidly and safely and within an hour were established in other quarters. The roof was repaired and the building reoccupied in about six weeks. Attention is called to the various educational services now rendered by the hospital. Students in the medical schools are attending clinics and special lectures and some are acting as internes. Members of the staffs of other hospitals are ac- quainting themselves with laboratory methods, and nurses are being prepared for psychiatric service. Most valuable work is being carried on in the research labor- atory. The Trustees desire to express again their appreciation of the unremitting service and care given by the officers and staff.

  • Psychotherapeutic Encounters: Masculine Ideals of Gender and the Construction of Hysteria in Nineteenth and Early
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Brent W. Misso for the degree of Master of Science in General Science presented on May 10, 1996. Title: Psychotherapeutic Encounters: Masculine Ideals of Gender and the Construction of Hysteria in Nineteenth and Early Twentieth-Century America. Redacted for Privacy Abstract approved: Robert Nye Early nineteenth-century America witnessed social change which significantly altered the structure of human relationships. Out of this transformation came new configurations of gender and sexuality which colored relations between the sexes well into the twentieth century. But these gender prescriptions did not merely serve to pattern male/female interactions, they informed the Victorian America male self-concept as well. As this study will demonstrate, men born and raised in the middle of the nineteenth century were bombarded with a masculine ethos which would permeate their personal and professional lives. This study focuses particularly upon men who entered the medical profession. More specifically, this is an investigation of those practitioners who took up psychotherapy in the course of conducting their medical practice. Overall, the thesis will show that gender roles did indeed influence medical professionals in the investigation and treatment of hysteria in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. The first chapter is an overview of the issues to be addressed in the thesis. The formal study begins in the second chapter with an examination of the construction of gender roles in nineteenth-century America. The third chapter summarizes the development of the professions and the subsequent ascent of medicine. The process of professionalization created a reciprocal relationship between medical science and the broader culture by which the medical practitioners of the late nineteenth and early twentieth century achieved an unprecedented status.

Flaherty, Speaker of the House of Representatives Honorable Members of the General Court I respectfully submit for your consideration this review of the local fiscal impact of insufficient distributions to cities and towns for payments-in-lieu-of-taxes for state owned land (PILOT) as provided by G.L. c. 58, ss. 13-17. This study was undertaken in accordance with G.L. c. 11, s. 6B, which allows the State Auditor’s Division of Local Mandates to determine the financial effect of state laws impacting cities and towns. G.L. c. 58, s. 17 provides a reimbursement formula to assist municipalities hosting certain tax-exempt state properties. My report estimates that over the past seven years, cities and towns received $58.4 million in reimbursements rather than the $116.9 million called for by the statutory formula--or 50% of their entitlements on average.

  • AN INVESTIGATION of the MENTAL HOSPITAL BUILDING TYPE Irvin J
    AN INVESTIGATION OF THE MENTAL HOSPITAL BUILDING TYPE Irvin J. Kohler August 1954 Submitted to the faculty of the Department of Architecture, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, in partial fulfillment of masterts thesis study, 1954. FOREWARD This study is concerned with the application of .the disciplines of architecture to the problems of the care and treatment of the mentally ill. I feel that there is sufficient justification to demand the re-thinking of build- ings housing the patient's treatment and living facilities to make them more in keeping with our standards of contem- porary achievements in both architecture and psychiatry. The limitations of such a study were: the study, itself; the personal limitations of the investigator; and the presentation. The gap between architecture and psy- chiatry is tremendous. Each is a field unto itself, but the two must be joined together if there is to be a satisfactory solution to the problems of the mental hospital building type. A great deal of time and research was necessary be- fore the writer could even begin to bridge this gap, due to professional differences in terminology, outlook, and ap- proach. The next limitation was my personal discomfort when I saw the patients illhoused, with very little in their en- vironment to help them retain their individuality and denied the right to facilities for a complete life because of build- ing deficiencies. The last limitation was that the presen- tation of such a study must necessarily be orderly and cata- logue in an organized way what a mental hospital is and needs. However, no such order is in existence in the actual build- ing, and unfortunately this presentation tends to leave the reader with the concept of order in the mental hospital.
