Many teachers in our colleges and other educational institutions are 

 introducing the study of family histories into their courses in genet- 

 ics, sociology, biology, and psychology, and some of them contribute 

 the results of the work of their students to the archives of this office.

 sults of their studies are Dr. F. L. Reichert, of Johns Hopkins Hospital;

 EUGENICS RESEARCH ASSOCIATION. 



On March 20, 1920, a committee of the National Research Council 

 on the Second Eugenics Congress met at Washington, under the 

 chairmanship of j^our Director, and voted to hold such a congress in 

 New York City, September 22 to 28 (inclusive), 1921. A meeting of 

 the general committee on the congress was held at the American Mu- 

 seum of Natural History, New York City, April 10, 1920, Dr. R. S.

 attitude toward and interest in research in eugenics.

 Research Association, under the presidency of Dr. Stewart Baton, 

 approved the personnel of the eugenics committee selected by the
