Even with it's great endowment of
natural force (for it draws on the
strain OF atavism that is more or
less in all Of us), the revolt against
civilization cannot succeed except So
ciety be weak. 1t is when "struc-
tural overlooking of
organization and disharmony within
begin to cause a breakdown in the
existing order that social revolution
gets in its work. Such a condition
came about in Russia and very
nearly overcame Germany at the
moment of its defeat. As Mr.. Stod-
dard sees it. no country is immune.
One trouble is that we do not util-
ize to the full the supply of intelli-
gence we have. Mediocrities for the
most part fill the high posts in poll
tics and finance, where unwise lea
dership. as history shows, tends to
precipitate revolution.

and in her still more appealing Sec
ond book, ITO Have and To Hold"
which appeared in 1900. In fact,
whenever she has tried, as she has
done several times. to turn another
facet of her mind toward the reader
she has met but an impatient atten-
ton, for the wise reader wanted her
to keep on as she had begun.
The mental image one should get
of her is that of very earnest,
deeply thoughtful young woman,
dreaming dreams and seeing mystic
visions. and sometimes going very
about the acceptance of her first

and able. too, to make those dreams
concrete. visible, incarnate flesh and

whose reproduction should be re-
stricted, are thereby denied the
means.
A higher type of race. which would
presumably possess a higher civiliza-
ton, would still (by the Iron law OF
inequality') have it's interiors: would
not these. by the same compulsion
that actuates the revolt of the in
feriors to-day, prove enemies of the
civilization that the more gifted had
achieved and incline to revolt in their
turn against it? That, at any rate.
is a question that can wait a few
generations.
Mr. Stoddard's book, like Prof Nc
Dougalls as America Safe for De-
mocracy?" is striking and incisive
criticism of our present day society
and a remarkably succinct analysis
of some of the ills that it is gener-
ating within itself. How any one
with an interest in the future of the
nation can fail to heed studiously the
Questions he very lucidly raises it is
difficult to conceive.

be detached from the forces of revolt.
This cannot be done by propaganda,
by heresy-hunting and the shouting
of 'Bolshevik" at everybody who dis
agrees with one. Such conduct gains
sympathizers for the natural rebels
and obscures the issue by making the
epithet cover every one who is not
reactionary. Repression should be
confined to anti-social action. 1t
should not interfere with freedom Of
speech, except such as directly in
cites to violence.
The ultimate solution lies in
eugehics. Somehow the superior
must be induced to reproduce in
greater numbers. The unmistakable
degenerates should be sterilized by
detention in institutions (only a very
small proportion of them are so in
carcerated now). The interiors must
be at least allowed to practice birth
control. Laws against information
on this subject work toward the de-
cline of the race. since the superior
