Insanity Not Shown Hereditary Says Expert at Seminar
Dr E E Southard of the Psychopathic Hospital told a School for Social Workers gathering at 18 Somerset Street that insanity is not necessarily hereditary. He warned flat house districts and hilltop towns host more insanity and crimes due to crowded homes and isolation. He urged work and companionship to aid treatment and rejected the idea that criminals are always insane. He noted many personal crises are not insane, and that criminals can exist without a mental disease.
