Eugenics Society Members List - Sm-Sz.

LIST OF MEMBERS

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.

Background:
The Goebbels Technique:
The introduction of abortion, euthanasia or any other part of the eugenic program in any country is preceded by a period of market research in which concerns, fears and resentments are discovered by "market research." Then slogans are formulated by the pro-selection eugenic lobby. These slogans play to the attitudes discovered by the market research. This is propaganda. 'Attitudinal' studies such as those carried out in the "Economic and Social Research Institutes" which Rockefeller set up in many countries are helpful in this task. (See Breeding Our Selves to Death. by L. Lader, Aborting America.by B. Nathanson, Rockefeller Foundation Annual Reports, Economic and Social Research Institute (of Dublin) Annual Reports, R. Lynn q.v.; Economic and Social Research Institute, Dublin, Hopkins, Isaac et al, National Institute of Economic and Social Research and Hastings, Dudley Higgins, American Eugenic Society 1956, Institute of Social and Economic Research, University College of the West Indies, Mona, Jamaica, British West Indies, and Eugenics Quarterly 1956)
Is this for real?
For an account of how attitudinal research is used see "Psychologi cal Warfare in Africa" Baobab Press P.O. Box 43345, Washington, D.C. 20010 USA; for proof that the Goebbels technique was used in the West see accounts of Richard Crossman's role in World War II and his speech to the United Services Club in which he said that the same propaganda techniques he proposed for enemy Germany during the war must be used to promote the English welfare state; consider also Crossman's Diary in which, among other things he explains that he must appear to be neutral during the abortion debate while secretly helping the abortion side. This is an area in which research is needed.

Background: The only indigenous British school of psychology rested on Spearman's work, which was derived from Galton. Some say that this school investigated performance, not ability. At any rate, its finding were used to support the claim that groups such as the blacks lacked ability in studies by such men as Arthur Jensen (AES, Pioneer Fund) and J.P. Rushton (Pioneer Fund). Spearman's theories were used in The Bell Curve by Charles Murray

Background:
The "mentally abnormal offender" in British prisons is, when violent, suicidal or argumentative, stripped naked, put in a padded cell and heavily drugged. When he or she appears less violent, suicidal or argumentative, he or she is then allowed special clothes which resemble a mail sack, and allowed to mingle with the others in the psychiatric section, still drugged. The prisoners call these other prisoners 'zonked'.
This happened to Maurice Lewis, a prolife rescuer in Strangeways Prison, Manchester in June of 1989 because, acting in sympathy with the unborn, who cannot walk, he refused to walk.

Source: ER 1956, 1957, AES list
Background:
Hannah Stone of the Margaret Sanger Bureau on birth control and eugenics: "The eugenicist, again, comes to birth control with a racial viewpoint. [ed. bolded] He sees in it an important aid towards controlling and improving the type and quality of the human stock. He looks at birth control, in its wider sense, to prevent the propagation of the physically and mentally unfit ... the eugenicist also favors a certain type of birth release. Certain classes of the population he would even encourage to increased fertility ... It is (on) this biological basis that I believe the birth control clinics of the future will be organised. In connection with the birth control center there will also be a eugenic department, and both of these will perhaps, be only a part of a more general "marriage advice station"... In such a center the racial aspect of reproduction could be stressed." (from "The Birth Control Clinic", May, 1929, Eugenics, Vol. 2. no. 5, p. 11 quoted in Blessed Are the Barren.Marshall and Donovan, 1991, Ignatius Press, p. 278-9; see Griffiths, E. q.v. (Marriage Guidance Council), Mace, C. q.v. (American Association of Marriage Counsellors) 1934 Nazi Germany as an example: "more than one thousand marriage consultation centres have been established in Germany and Austria ... Back of this movement are the scientific men at the various universities including Eugene Fischer, Muckermann, von Verschuer, [ed. bolded] Lenz, as well as Rudin ... The first consultation center ... started in Berlin in 1919 ... Departments of Health in the smaller cities of central Europe cooperate with the local insurance organizations in marriage advice centers ... consultations in all domains of medicine, social hygiene, psychology, biology, heredity, eugenics, and child guidance ... a physician, a medical social worker ... the requisite qualifications ... must be licensed physicians who have university training in medicine and sociology, who have been engaged ... in private practice and who have had academic knowledge of public health, maternal health, endocrinology, psychology, psychotherapy, child guidance and eugenics ..." (Eugenical News 1934, p. 78)
Birth Release:
see The Release of the Destruction of Life Devoid of Value, an acknowledged forerunner of the Holocaust but birth release means increasing the births of the favored groups

Quotes:
Purpose of Birth Control Clinics:
petitioned M.P.'s to use health clinics to "curtail the breeding of the C3 population" quoted in "Birth Control and Population Policies", ALDU pamphlet by Michael and Joyce Bell
Coercive Sterilisation:
She called for the "sterilization of those totally unfit for parenthood (to) be made an immediate possibility, indeed made compulsory.", from Radiant Motherhood. 1920
Sterilize "revolutionaries" and "half castes":
"Utopia could be reached in my life time had I the power to issue inviolable edicts... (I would legislate compulsory sterilization of the insane, feebleminded) ... revolutionaries ... half castes." from The Control of Parenthood. 1920
Contraceptives Fund and Eugenic Society Renewal:
Marie Stopes Memorial Foundation:
When she died in 1958, Marie Stopes left part of her fortune to the Eugenics Society which formed the Marie Stopes Memorial Foundation Ltd. The previously unincorporated Society for Constructive Birth Control and Racial Progress was incorporated at this time as the Society for Constructive Birth Control Ltd.; in 1969 it still owned 106 and 108 Whitfield St. "The articles of Association of the Marie Stopes Memorial) Foundation include a provision for its control by the (Eugenic) Society's Council ... The Board of the Foundation ... is responsible for all matters of policy; the day to day running of the (birth control) Clinic is deputed to a Clinic Committee ... Under the Foundation's management the Memorial Clinic has flourished and each year since 1961 surplus funds have accumulated of which part have been made available for the general purposes of the Eugenics Society." (ASP's Hist, p. 153-54, ER 1968)
Marie Stopes Research Fund:
"When the National Health Service took over the provision of birth control, the clinic was wound up and the proceeds formed the basis of the Marie Stopes Research Fund ...in 1977" (from Obit, Cedric Carter B&S 1984); "The Society, through the Marie Stopes Research Fund and its Research Advisory Committee, is today able to contribute much more actively than in the past to support of research ... The Society finances, besides its annual symposium, named lectures during the year..." from Biology and Society "Statement of Purpose" Vol. 1, no. 1, 1984 (The Darwin, Galton and Marie Stopes lectures)
Population Services Family Planning Programme:
This group, now known as Marie Stopes International, a major abortion provider, got the use of the Marie Stopes name. That would ordinarily mean that it bought the Marie Stopes properties for a sum sufficient to establish the Marie Stopes Research Fund. In some years the Marie Stopes Research Fund has given out 28,000 English pounds.
Safety of Pill Determined by Those Whom It was Financing:
It is significant that the Eugenics Society, which was financed in part by birth control clinics, also, through the Oliver Bird Trust and the CIFC, controlled the clinical trials which passed on the safety of the steroids given to women at these clinics. It is now acknowledged that the first Pill was not safe. (see Ellen Mears, Oliver Bird Trust, Pyke, M., Blacker, C.P.)
