Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Report of the Maryland Mental Hygiene Survey: With Recommendations
The Lunacy Commission Deficiency Survey, begun in 1916 by Miss Jane Griffith, secured some important data which were placed at our service. Dr. F. L. Dunham's records at the Maryland Industrial Training School for Girls and the Maryland Training School for Boys served greatly to curtail our work at these institutions.
Dr. Thompson's surveys of a children's home and of schools in Baltimore and Annapolis were contributed, and the Baltimore School Survey, by Professors Strayer, Trabue, and others, enabled us to come by a short route to large numbers of defectives in the Baltimore schools.
From all these sources, we have come into possession of a trust from the people of Maryland. This widely voiced desire to know the facts and to have plans for dealing sanely and wisely with the situations disclosed puts a duty upon us which we feel to' be at once a high' privilege and a sacred charge.
