The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from Pivot of Civilization by Margaret Sanger: destruction and deterioration of the most precious, the most essential
elements in our world community--the mothers and children. With the
mothers and children thus cheapened, the next generation of men and
women is inevitably below par. The tendency of the human elements,
under present conditions, is constantly downward.
Turn to Robert M. Yerkes's ``Psychological Examining in the United
States Army''[1] in which we are informed that the psychological
examination of the drafted men indicated that nearly half--47.3 per
cent.--of the population had the mentality of twelve-year-old children
or less--in other words that they are morons. Professor Conklin, in
his recently published volume ``The Direction of Human Evolution''[2]
