Editorial
With the issue of the present number this paper completes the second year of its existence.
We should like to take the opportunity to make an appeal to our readers not only for their continued support, but also for their closer co-operation.
We feel that the experiment which we made in embarking upon the publica- tion of the paper has been justified by its success, and we owe our grateful thanks to those who have so readily responded to our request for articles, despite the numberless other claims upon their time. But we are quite aware of the short- comings of the paper and fully alive to the fact that it is as yet far from being what the importance of the cause it serves demands. To remedy its defects we want a wider circulation: we want suggestions for articles: we want to be kept supplied with items of interest for “News and Notes” : we want enquiries on specific prob- lems the answers to which may prove of general help: and we want constructive, criticism so that we may be better able to meet the needs of our readers and thus establish a closer link with them.
It is easy, too, to devote too much attention to one aspect of the problem of Mental Inefficiency at the expense of other aspects less apparent but of equal importance, and this again is a danger that can only be avoided if all who have the interests of the paper at heart take a share of the responsibility for making it an effective medium of information.
We therefore cordially invite the opinions of our readers as to how the paper can be made more helpful. All correspondence on the subject should be addressed to the Editor, “Studies in Mental Inefficiency,” 24, Buckingham Palace Road, London, S.W.I.
