Eugenics Society Members List - G.

Source of members names: From 1930 until 1990 members' names were published in the Society journal as they joined or became fellows. These sources are shown as a journal abbreviation followed by the year in which the person entered the Society, e.g., ER 1942. (ER = Eugenics Review; Bulletin of the Eugenics Society; B&S = Biology and Society). The Eugenics Review at times listed all the officers and members of the council. These sources are also shown as a journal abbreviation followed by a date. The Society is a corporation and its directors are listed in its annual reports deposited in Company House (CH). In 1937 the Society published a list of members in its Annual Report (ESAR 1937). In 1957 the Society published a list of members in the Eugenics Review (ER 1957). A list of members compiled in 1977 was deposited in the Welcome Archives (1977 list). Deaths of members were sometimes noted in obituaries in the Society journals (Obit + journal abbreviation and date). Other sources are as specified.

cousin of Charles Darwin; was aware of Mendel's work and tried to interest C. Darwin in it; failed and developed the statistical method instead, a method which concealed the ratio Mendel had discovered. It is not clear how these two mathematics can be reconciled as, it is asserted, Ronald Fisher has done.

Quotes:
Eugenics and Natural Selection:
"Man... I conceive it well within his province to replace Natural Selection by other processes that are more merciful and not less effective. This precisely is the aim of eugenics." Sir Francis Galton 1908, quoted in The Eugenics Society Aims & Activities.1990 information pamphlet
Antidemocratic, Equality:
"It is in the most unqualified manner that I object to pretensions of natural equality" (Galton quoted by Dorothy Middleton (a relative), Bulletin of the Eugenics Society, 1982, p. 113)
Religion and Eugenics:
1916 "I see no impossibility in Eugenics becoming a religious dogma among man kind.", from "Eugenics: Its Definition, Scope and Aims", Galton addresses, University of London 1916

Germaine Greer and others saw him as a nonentity who was jealous of the fame of Marie Stopes. Gates may have been jealous of Stopes' fame but he was not a non-entity. It's more likely that all concerned wanted to cover up his activities in favor of racism. They certainly would not want their effectiveness looked into. The Ruggles Gates Fund to be administered by the Council of the Royal Anthropological Institute was reported in Biology and Society March 1987 p. 40; The obit in the Eugenics Review does not mention either Marie Stopes or Mankind Quarterly

Quotes:
1923
The Undesirables:
"an obvious negative eugenic measure which can be carried into effect is the prevention of reproduction on the part of undesirables.", from Heredity and Eugenics. by R.R. Gates 1923
1960
Opposed Integration:
"separate schools are better for both races ... in the Southern States ... millions had been spent to provide equally good schools for Negro and White ... American anthropologists were responsible for introducing equalitarianism into anthropology, ignoring the hereditary differences between races ... until the uninstructed public were gradually misled. Equality of opportunity, which everyone supports was replaced by a doctrine of social and genetic equality, which is something different." (from a review of Race and Reason by Carleton Putnam; review written by RR Gates and Gayre of Gayre in Mankind Quarterly 1961)
Background:
1934 Miscegenation:
According to a review by H.J. Fleure q.v. of Racial and Social Problems in the Lightof Heredity. by R.R. Gates, Gates thinks that "the difference between the races of man are greater than many between species of animals ... he advocates discourage ment of miscegena tion between blacks and whites ... the black races ... may develop ... but (R.R. Gates) dissents from any notion of their equality with white ... While agreeing with him in the main, the reviewer ..." (ER 1934, p. 73)

Everywhere I sensed that their opinions have been tremendously stimulated by American thought, and particularly by the work of the Human Betterment Foundation. I want you, my dear friend, to carry this thought with you for the rest of your life, that you have really jolted into action a great government of 60,000,000 people."

Personal: founding member Society for the Protection of Unborn Children (SPUC); consistently opposed to abortion on demand
Source: ER 1956, 1957, 1977 list, SPUC letterhead
Background:
SPUC Began By Supporting Abortion:
"it is proposed to form a Society provisionally entitled the Society for the Protection of Unborn Children, with the following aims: 1) To uphold the principle that human life ought not to be taken except in cases of urgent necessity."... 3) To consider how far the Medical Termination of Pregnancies Bill- and in particular clauses 1 (1) (b), (C) and (d) - is consistent with these principles: and to oppose it where it is not." (from a letter to the Daily Telegraph Jan. 11, 1967 signed by CB Goodhart, Peter Huntingford, and Aleck Bourne among others.)
What is meant by "urgent necessity"? ( "...we support clause (a), which seeks to clarify the case-law position regard (sic) to abortion in the case of serious risk to life or health of the mother, we are opposed on ethical grounds to clauses (b), (c) and (d). Clause (b) would permit abortion if there was substantial risk that the child would be born seriously handicapped. This would mean that many healthy foetuses would be destroyed as a precaution. Clause (c)... provides, in fact, for abortion on demand..." (from letter to the Church Times 30/9/66)
How Many Illegal abortions?:
20,000 to 15,000 in Great Britain before 1967 from article by Goodhart in "Population Studies" July 1973

Not many observers outside or even inside Whitehall could understand why the Prime Minister should delegate negotiations with the white rebel regime in Rhodesia to the solicitor.", from Maxwell: The Outsider. by Tom Bower 1988 Aurum Press

What is the next step for eugenics?
(The Eugenic Hypothesis): it is ..."a truism...it will be necessary for the rate of human population growth to be reduced to zero if the human species is to survive ... family planning programs ... are by no means sufficient ... (quoting Kingsley Davis of the American Eugenic Society, Grebenik then says): '... a realistic proposal for a government policy of lowering the birth rate reads like a catalogue of horrors: squeeze consumers through taxation and inflation; make housing very scarce by limiting construction; force wives and mothers to work outside the home to offset the inadequacy of male wages, yet provide few child care facilities; encourage migration to the cities by paying low wages in the country and providing few rural jobs; increase congestion in the cities by starving the transit system; increase personal insecurity by encouraging conditions that produce unemployment and by haphazard political arrests' (end of Kingsley Davis' quote) ... poor housing and widespread gainful employment of women, particularly in towns, seems to have led to a reduction in the birth rate of some Eastern European countries."
Grebenik's conclusion is that at present the control needed to achieve a zero growth rate is incompatible with democracy; further research is needed. from "On Controlling Population Growth" in Biology and the Human Sciences, (ed.) J.W. S. Pringle, Herbert Spencer Lectures 1970, Oxford 1970

Background:
National Marriage Guidance Council:
Funded by Home Office, i.e. the police. The question is: did the police then have access to the records?
Abortion Effects:
Marriage Guidance Council was cited by Lane Report Section E., para 157: "Many of our clients who come complaining of unhappiness in marriage are troubled by unresolved feelings of guilt about past events such as an abortion. The malaise arises not so much in the event itself but in failure to explore and work through her feelings about it at the time, and such cases are likely to require prolonged counselling particularly where the abortion was not a joint decision. A woman may submit to an abortion physically but not emotionally..."
