a constructive attempt to organize
a new program in harmony with a
new philosophy."

alysis of the varied activities of a

gent basis for the study and consider
ation of these activities. A critical
review of the work says, "Doctor
Roemer and Mr. Allen have worked
earnestly to make a contribution in
this field and they have succeeded in
their effort. It is a valuable addi
tion to the materials in the field of
