Degeneracy in the South

According to "Good Health," New Orleans protests against the train loads of babies sent into the South from New York. Many of these, says Dr. Clarence Pierson, superintendent of the Jackson (La.) insane asylum, are children of alcoholics and degenerates, and the effects of alcoholism as shown by statistics in his asylum, he contends, may extend to the seventh generation. Luxury and love of ease he declares are producing wide-spread degeneracy. See Eze. 16:49.
