lengthy statement reviewing the life of
the bureau and declaring that it can
not be too strongly emphasized that
"the spirit which dominates the bureau
is not sensational or sentimental or

is essentially a spirit of constructive
suggestion and of deep scientific, as
we'll as humane. interest in a great
work
MI Rockefeller stated that he hoped
that the studies of the bureau would be
completed by December 1913, and that
he would then turn his attention to
the formation of a definite plan for
dealing with the social evil in New
York. Later it is the intention of the
bureau to supplement its present in
vestigation with others covering many
cities in the United States, the object
being to become familiar with all
phases of the subject and with al
