This paper is reprinted from the New Republic of May 26, 1947, because it brings up the problem of how to regulate the practice of psychoanalysis. Reich, who made important contributions to psychoanalysis in the 1920's, was expelled from the International Psychoanalytic Association in 1934 when his activities diverged fundamentally from basic psychoanalytic concepts. Since that time he has achieved a considerable following with theories and practices that might be dangerous to the uninformed public. Brady feels that some method of adopting standards should be developed by the state and the psychoanalytic associations which would offer the uninformed an opportunity of checking on the acceptability of a psychotherapist.
