Exhibit R 2—S 477
These Charts have been issued with a view to a methodical
enquiry on the criminal, under the direction of the Scientific and
Criminological Department.
Set of questions of the French Lay Mission, designed to note the R 2
characteristics of the young natives and of their relatives in the French
Colonies. The teachers will have to return them filled up with the
greatest care to the Lay Mission, where Dr. Papillault, before their
departure, delivered a series of lectures to teach them how to proceed.
Questions on the half-breeds, adopted by the Paris Society of K 3
Anthropology, and designed to show the bio-social characteristics of the
half-breeds proceeding from cross-breeding between different races.
Questions asked by the General Psychological Institute for the R 4
purpose of undertaking a vast enquiry on the value taxionomic, organic,
bio-social, and selective of the different human races which actually
exist in the French Colonies, and particularly in North Africa.
A like spirit and method governs these four sets of questions; to
discard the verbalism which obstructs and imperils Sociology; to study
characteristics precise, objective, easily controllable and comparable, and
likely consequently to form statistics, which alone are capable of
revealing characteristics of groups; to establish the correlations which
these characteristics may present among themselves, and to arrive at last
at the discovery of positive sociological laws.
