Letters to the editor

I have frequently in the past few months seen references to “the forces of ignorance, tradition” and so on, in various ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING articles; and now again in the March issue in Doctor E. W. Rice´s address, as recorded on page 197, we have — “The forces of ignorance, tradition, and superstitition are strong and view with some alarm the progress of science” … “After all, the forces of reaction and ignorance cannot prevail permanently in a country in which the voters are properly educated.”
