T HREE articles in the February issue of the Atlantic contain especial1y chal1enging material for case workers. Two of them furnish us with considerable aid and comfort in the testimony they bear to the spread into other fields of the demand for individualized treatment. These are "Facing the Prison Problem" by Frank Tannenbaum, and "The Iron Man and the Mind," by Arthur Pound, the latter a continuation of his very interesting series in which the effect of machines on the lives of human beings who feed and tend them is exhaustively analyzed. Both articles are a direct appeal for the conservation of the worth and dignity of human personality, the one in our treatment of criminals, the other in our industrial adjustments. The first article in the number opens a new line by Mrs. Cannon, the paper entitled "American Misgivings" being apparently the first in a series which she calls "Democracy in Question." Mrs. Cannon makes extensive use of the statistics of the army intelligence tests and draws certain deductions therefrom. Her conclusion seems to be that American democracy is seriously threatened if not jeopardized by the preponderance in it of persons of low intelligence. The mind of the reader reverts to her earlier paper on "Philanthropic Doubts" in which she reached the conclusion that the social work of the country had been a failure under private auspices and should be turned over as speedily as possible to the control of this same democracy in whose capacity for wise direction, and in the stability of whose institutions, the author now seems to feel so little confidence. Our readers who agree with Mrs. Cannon in both conclusions must indeed see little future hope for the fruitful continuance of social endeavor under any auspices at all. As set forth by Mrs. Cannon, some results of the army intelligence tests cause "philanthropic doubts" to arise in the mind of the case worker. Is it true in our experience that between 60 per cent and 70 per cent of our largest foreign groups are inferior in mentality? Do their American-born children in the public schools show that their racial stock is thus so seriously affected? A wel1-known authority in the psychiatric field told me the other day that in his judgment a good deal of the seeming mental defectiveness among the foreign-born mothers might be ascribed to their sequestered existence, their concentration on a round of dul1 duties, their subjugation to the will of their husbands, and the lack of any stimulus toward mental development in their environment. In other words, he felt that a low intelligence quotient among such people might often be a matter of actual degeneration from the possible mental status which the individual might have reached under more favorable conditions. Is there not raised in our minds some question concerning a series'of tests, part of the results of which is described by Mrs. Cannon as follows: "One happy finding of the army tests was the very large proportion of the A an
