Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Some Unsolved Social Problems of an University Town
The following study of certain community problems in Prince ton, New Jersey was begun in the spring of 1916 at the request of a committee of the Town Club, a social welfare organization of that community. A preliminary investigation was first made which was continued a year latter with a more detailed study of conditions with special reference to problems of Housing, Public Health and Depend ency. Data relating to these topics are contained in the following pages.
Much information was collected bearing upon other topics than the ones presented in this volume, especially upon Recreation, Occupa tions, Schools, Government, the Foreign Born, and Negroes. Data relating to these subjects are to be found' scattered through the pages of this study, though not under special heading. It was considered that the material concerning Housing, Public Health, and Dependency was the most important from the point of view of community welfare; hence, attention is directed mainly to these subjects.
