MfcNIAL HYUltNt
In a number of diseases there
has been witnessed during the
last quarter of a century a con-
stant rise in the number and
rates of cases and deaths.
A portion of this rise may be
attributed to better diagnosis, bet-
ter reporting, and better public
health bookkeeping.
There is little doubt, for ex-

the entire increase in prevalence
witnessed in a number of dis-
eases.
A certain portion of the mount-
| ing numbers actually represents
an increase in the amount of dis-
ease. Such is without doubt the
case in insanity.
There are in the United States
no fewer than 275,000 persons
I committed to hospitals for the In-
j sane, and an equal number of the
same persons free in the com-
munity.
Fifty thousand feebie-minded
annually are cared for in public
institutions, several times this
number of feeble-minded are to
be found outside the institutions,
without any special form of care.
In a survey made in Cincinnati
it was found that two out of ev-
ery three children brought into
the juvenile court were afflicted
with mental disorders.
Seventy-five percent of jail in-
. mates were found to be mentally
! abnormal. Thirteen out of every
j 100 school chiltlren were not in
| normal mental health.
While the number of those
frankly insane is appallingly im-
pressive, we must consider also
the much larger number of per-
sons whose sanity is only rela-
tive.
Persons in this group

personality disabilities which ren-
