This article discusses several books. The book "Race Attitudes in Children," by Bruno Lasker, is a highly purposeful and lively book, which will be useful to teachers and parents. It explores, nimbly and inclusively, the entire range of the child's attitude toward children and adults of other races and nationalities. The book "The Economics of Farm Relief," by Edwin R. A. Seligman, is a useful book for back-to-the-land enthusiasts to read, because it discloses some of the inevitable causes of agricultural depression. For farmers it is not such good reading, because it comes no nearer to a cure for their pains than Congress with its so-called relief measures.
