Book The Blind in the United States

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Blind in the United States: 1910 Sir: I have the honor to transmit herewith a report on the blind in the United States in 1910. The material for this report was obtained in part at the general population census of 1910, at which the inclusion of a question regarding the existence of blindness made it possible to distinguish and tabulate for the blind as a separate class the data covering the subjects of sex, age, race, nativity, marital condition, and occupation. After that census was taken, in order to obtain data on subjects which, for the most part, had no significance except as related to blindness, a supplementary schedule was mailed to each person reported as blind. The questions on this schedule covered degree and cause of blindness, age when vision was lost, existence of blindness among relatives, education, economic status, and occupation before blindness. The data which were derived from the population census have previously been published in Bulletin 130, but the data derived from the supplementary schedules appear for the first time in the report herewith submitted. The report contains also a summary of the laws in the several states relating to the education and care of the blind and the prevention of blindness. This report was prepared in the Division of Revision and Results under the general direction of Joseph A. Hill, expert special agent. The analytical text is mainly the work of Reginald L. Brown, who also had immediate charge of the tabulation of the data. The bureau is indebted to Dr. Oscar Wilkinson, of Washington, for advice and assistance in classifying the returns relative to the causes of blindness. Dr. G. E. De Schweinitz, of Philadelphia, president of the American Ophthalmological Society, and Dr. E. G. Seibert, of Washington, kindly consented to examine the proof of the report. The bureau has reason to be gratified by their commendation of its work and at the same time is under obligations to them for some helpful criticisms and suggestions. As was the case at the census of 1900, the returns have been utilized not only for statistical purposes but also for supplying, upon request, lists of the blind enumerated in particular states or localities, including names, addresses, and other personal data, for the use of schools, libraries, workshops, or other institutions for the blind. In this way the bureau has, no doubt, been instrumental in extending the philanthropic work carried on by various public agencies in behalf of those afflicted with blindness.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from New York Adult Blind Clippings, 1913, Vol. 6 The New York Association for the Blind, which is not an association of the blind, has considerable contributed resources, and has done something in the Workshops line. In letters to vari: ous newspapers blind persons have severely criticised its methods, and Fthose methods have been warmly de fended by others. Few of the blind Ipersons seem to regard it as an ade quate substitute for a Statesystem with full responsibility to the State au thorities. The feeling, just 01° unjust, seems to be that it is not flexible enough to consider the personal trend and capacities of the pe1 son who 11 ants work, and the blind resent bitterly the notion that their affliction blots out in dividual aspiration.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Insane and Feeble-Minded in Institutions: 1910 Earlier censuses - While the special censuses of the insane in 1904 and 1910 were restricted to institutions, at each general decennial census of the population from 1850 to 1890, inclusive, the attempt was made to secure a complete enumeration of the insane by insert ing on the general population schedule a question as to insanity. The question in the form in which it first appeared specified insanity as one of a number of defects which were to be reported wherever found to exist. In 1850 and in 1860 the question read Whether deaf and dumb, blind, insane, idiotic, pau per, or convict; and in 1870 it was the same with the omission of pauper or convict. In 1880, how ever, insanity and each of the other defects specified were covered by a separate question; but in 1890 the question again became general and comprehensive; Whether defective in mind, sight, hearing, or speech, or whether crippled, maimed, or deformed, with name of defect.
