Excerpt from Syphilis of the Innocent: A Study of the Social Effects of Syphilis on the Family and the Community, With 152 Illustrative Cases, Made Under a Grant From the United States Interdepartmental Social Hygiene Board
Acknowledgment must be made first of all to the United States Interdepartmental Social Hygiene Board whose grant Of funds made it possible to carry on many of the investiga tions and to collect and publish the material here presented. Our revered former chief, Dr. E. E. Southard, suggested the idea of presenting our work in the form of a monograph. While his untimely death prevented him from giving the over sight and advice that he otherwise would have done, we hope that we have profited to some extent by what he did give us.
