Excerpt from Major Social Problems Plans and schemes by the hundred have been worked out to meet the new conditions growing out of the World War. They attack this evil and remedy that situation. On the whole, they leave us where we were, because they deal with what may be called minor social problems. Underlying these minor problems are the major social problems which deal with fundamental principles and attitudes. The author has attempted to discuss these in the following pages. Unless we face the facts as we find them and try to find solutions for them, we may never succeed in evolving a better society. This task demands courage and an open mind. The author wishes to acknowledge his indebtedness directly to the late Frank Lester Ward, to Professors Franklin H. Giddings of Columbia University and Edward A. Ross of Wisconsin University and to many other writers indirectly, although with no less sincere appreciation. The material of this book has been used in classes at New York University. References and questions for each chapter have been added at the end of the volume in the hope that other teachers may find them of use in their classes.
