THE FORCES OF SOCIAL CHANGE

A. YANKAUER M.D.

"A nation's greatness is measured by its concern for the health and welfare of its people. Throughout our democracy this commitment has grown and deepened. . . . With these programs and those I am recommending today, we can move closer to attainment of our goals: to bring every child the care he needs to develop his capacity to the fullest; to reduce infant mortality, concentrating particularly on those minority groups whose death rate is highest." These are words that the President of the United States addressed to the Eighty-ninth Congress in March 1966. They reflect the forces of social change whose spirit and legislative expression have shaken the domestic order to a greater degree than at any time since the early days of the New Deal.
