$15 dues for APA membership in 1944 ... According to this inflation calculator, https://www.officialdata.org/1944-dollars-in-2018?amount=15, $15 in 1944 is equivalent to $214.78, which is about $100 less than what I pay today for APA membership, though my fee includes fees for 3 divisions.
Interesting!

It was exactly 170 years ago today that Phineas Gage’s life and historical fate were changed in an instant when a tamping iron he was using to set an explosive charge at a railway-building site in Vermont was accidentally blown through his head. Normally that would have been the end of his story but, as you know, he survived the calamity and went on to become one of the most studied neurological cases in history. A little over a decade ago, I had the opportunity to interview Malcolm Macmillan, who knows more about the case than almost anyone. You can find the interview embedded in an episode if my “This Week in the History of Psychology” podcast series here: https://www.yorku.ca/christo/podcasts/TWITHOP-Sep11.mp3 (go to 4:45).
