EUGENICS [NOTE: The fulfillment of the Power Elite’s plan is in part dependent upon the undermining of Biblical truth, and in that regard people like TV personality Bill Maher promoting his new movie RELIGULOUS are important. Recently on Charlie Rose’s PBS program, Maher and host Rose laughed as Maher repeatedly joked about “a snake who talks” in THE HOLY BIBLE’S account of Eve and the serpent in the Garden of Eden. Maher’s contention is that such accounts are ridiculous, thereby implying that those who believe them are simple-minded. Actually, though, it is Maher who is displaying his narrowmindedness. It is a fact that scientists today have isolated certain sounds made by dolphins that allow man to give primitive communicative signals to them. I even know the sound a mockingbird makes that would translate into English as “danger” or “warning.” We also know man today uses nowhere near his full brain capacity. Therefore, why is it impossible to believe that Eve, as a perfect creation by God from Adam’s rib, was able to use full human brain capacity to comprehend the tonal vibrations of animals’ sounds as means of communication?] The term “eugenics” was first used in 1883 by Francis Galton, Darwin’s half cousin. In 1871, Darwin authored the racist book THE DESCENT OF MAN AND SELECTION IN RELATION TO SEX saying that “the civilized races of man will almost certainly exterminate, and replace, the savage races throughout the world.” This followed the principle of “survival of the fittest” coined by Herbert Spencer in 1864 after reading Darwin’s 1959 book, THE ORIGIN OF THE SPECIES BY MEANS OF NATURAL SELECTION FOR THE PRESERVATION OF FAVORED RACES IN THE STRUGGLE FOR LIFE (four years after Arthur Gobineau’s AN ESSAY ON THE INEQUALITY OF THE RACES). For humans, this principle expressed itself in Social Darwinism. Thus, during the 1870s, Oxford lecturer John Ruskin would instill in his students, like Cecil Rhodes, the concept that they were “the best northern blood” and should rule the world. Rhodes scholarships were not only given to students from America and Commonwealth nations, but also to those from Germany beginning in the very early 1900s. Germans at this time were also being conditioned to see historical progression in terms of “blood and land,” a sort of Teutonic knighthood descended from the Aryans. In 1914, Madame Blavatsky’s Aryan doctrine had spread through Germany and Austria, and it was from her writings that a young Adolph Hitler learned the meaning of the Aryan swastika. By this time, eugenics was a growing international movement with the first International Congress of Eugenics held in 1912 with Vice-Presidents Winston Churchill, Alexander Graham Bell, Skull & Bones member Gifford Pinchot, and former Harvard University president Charles Eliot. In this same year, eugenics proponent Woodrow Wilson signed into law a brutal sterilization act, and the next year eugenics adherent Theodore Roosevelt wrote of the need to improve “racial qualities.” Calvin Coolidge wrote similarly in “Whose County Is This?” (GOOD HOUSEKEEPING, February 1921), after Arthur Calhoun in Volume 3 of his widely used textbook A SOCIAL HISTORY OF THE AMERICAN FAMILY (1919) explained that “in the new social order, extreme emphasis is sure to be placed upon eugenic procreation.” Men of wealth like Andrew Carnegie and the Rockefellers played an important part in funding the eugenics movement. In 1904, the Carnegie Institution, with Skull & Bones member Daniel Coit Gilman as president, financed the establishment of a biological experiment station related to eugenics at Cold Spring Harbor, New York. In 1910, the Eugenics Record Office was begun there and later received funding from the Rockefeller Foundation after John D. Rockefeller, Jr. formed the Bureau of Social Hygiene. It was during this time of the early 20th Century that Rockefeller introduced Margaret Sanger to the monied elite who would help her form the Birth Control League which would later become Planned Parenthood. The November 1921 issue of Sanger’s BIRTH CONTROL REVIEW carried the heading “Birth Control: To Create A Race of Thoroughbreds,” and Sanger would later advocate eugenically limiting “dysgenic stocks” such as blacks, Hispanics, American Indians and Catholics, as well as “slum dwellers” such as Jewish immigrants. In 1926, Rockefeller money funded the founding of the American Eugenics Society, and the next year on May 2, 1927, the U.S. Supreme Court by an 8 to 1 majority ruled in Buck v. Bell that certain “unfit” people could be forcibly sterilized. Regarding this ruling, British Prof. Harold Laski wrote his friend Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes: “Sterilize all the unfit, among whom I include all fundamentalists.” Across the nation during the 1930s, state legislatures (eventually 38) enacted sterilization laws regarding the “feeble-minded.” Also during this time, Franklin Roosevelt became president, and in Christopher Thorne’s ALLIES OF A KIND (1978) one finds: “Subjects to do with breeding and race seem, indeed, to have held a certain fascination for the president…. Roosevelt felt it in order to talk, jokingly, of dealing with Puerto Rico’s excessive birth rate by employing, in his own words, ‘the methods which Hitler used effectively’ [to make them] sterile.” In the April 1933 edition of Margaret Sanger’s BIRTH CONTROL REVIEW, Dr. Ernst Rudin of Hitler’s Nazi Third Reich wrote “Eugenic Sterilization: An Urgent Need.” During the late 1930s, the German General Staff also developed a plan that would come to fruition in two generations (the 1990s). They would send their agents through one country and on to a second country of destination wherein they would “appear as men of large commercial or financial interests, gaining a controlling influence in labor unions, in the banking world, in Chambers of Commerce,” according to American official Sumner Welles in THE TIME FOR DECISION (1944). As an example of the Nazi’s success in strategic placement of their operatives long after WWII, Nazi Paul Dickopf became president of Interpol from 1968 to 1972. After WWII and the Nazis’ “supposed” defeat, you would think the world would find the Nazi philosophy abhorrent. However, when Fabian Socialist Sir Julian Huxley became the first Director-General of UNESCO, he authored UNESCO: ITS PURPOSE AND ITS PHILOSOPHY (1948) in which he revealed that “even though it is quite true that any radical eugenic policy will be for many years politically and psychologically impossible, it will be important for UNESCO to see that the eugenic problem is examined with the greatest care, and that the public mind is informed of the issues at stake so that much that is now unthinkable may at least become thinkable.” This was three years after the founding of the Human Betterment League in 1945 in North Carolina, one of the leading states in forced sterilization (in the late 1970s, Dr. Harmon Smith of Duke University said North Carolina had one of the most thorough involuntary sterilization programs in the U.S.). The League’s director was Alice Shelton Gray who worked with Margaret Sanger. Gray was succeeded as League director by C. Nash Herndon (Carnegie Fellow 1940-41), who became president of the American Eugenics Society from 1952 to 1955. According to REPORT FROM IRON MOUNTAIN ON THE POSSIBILITY AND DESIRABILITY OF PEACE, in August 1963 a Special Study Group was appointed by high ranking government officials to study how to deal with future problems. Among the considerations proposed by the group as a substitute for the “war system” was “a comprehensive program of applied eugenics.” Not long after this, in the late 1960s and early 1970s according to author Randy Engel (Human Life International’s 10th World Conference, April 5, 1991), the March of Dimes began to fund eugenic fetal experimentation. Then in 1974, the National Security Council under Henry Kissinger on December 10 issued NSSM 200 titled “Implications of Worldwide Population Growth for U.S. Security and Overseas Interests” related to population growth in Third World countries. The document declared: “It is urgent that measures to reduce fertility be started and made effective in the 1970s and 1980s…. Food and agricultural assistance is vital for any population sensitive development strategy.” NSSM 200 also referred to the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), which included the Office of Population headed by Reimert Ravenholt from 1965 to 1979. According to Paul Wagman’s “To Sterilize Millions” (St. Louis Post-Dispatch, April 22, 1977), Ravenholt said that “as many as 100 million women around the world might be sterilized if U.S. goals are met.” In the 1980s, New Ager and Task Force Delta psychologist Barbara Marx Hubbard (nominated for Vice-President at the 1984 Democrat National Convention) authored a 3-part book titled THE BOOK OF CO-CREATION, in which she revealed: “Out of the full spectrum of human personality, one-fourth is electing to transcend…. One-fourth is destructive [and] they are defective seeds… [who] must be eliminated from the social body…. Fortunately, you are not responsible for this act. We are. We are in charge of God’s selection process for planet Earth. He selects, we destroy. We are the riders of the pale horse, Death.” Thus, the plan seems to be eugenically to destroy those “defective seeds” who are not part of Hubbard’s New Age agenda for the future. In the 1990s, Dr. James D. Watson became president of Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory mentioned earlier, and he worked on the Human Genome Project completed just a few years ago. In case you don’t know one purpose for which this project mapping all human genes can be used, read the chilling eugenic philosophy of Dr. Watson as recorded in the May 1973 edition of PRISM (published by the American Medical Association). In an article titled “Children From the Laboratory,” Watson is quoted as stating: “I think we must re-evaluate our basic assumptions about the meaning of life. Perhaps… no one should be thought of as alive until about three days after birth, then… the doctor would allow the child to die if the parents so chose.” Thus, it may be that the Human Genome Project will facilitate an ominous future in which only the eugenically “fit” will be allowed to live. You can see how the eugenic philosophy has already taken hold in Roe v. Wade with its companion Doe v. Bolton. During the current presidential campaign, Sen. McCain could have pointed out to Sen. Obama that those Supreme Court rulings said Constitutional personhood is not conferred until birth. McCain could then have asked if they were in a hospital delivery room and a baby born prematurely at 6 months after conception were being attacked, would Obama try to stop the attack? After Obama said he would, then McCain could have asked Obama why he eugenically could support a violent attack (abortion) on the same baby one, two or three months later if the baby were not yet born.

E-Mail: Not Available EUGENICS PART 2 By Dennis L. Cuddy, Ph.D. March 21, 2011 NewsWithViews.com In the late 1970s, Dr. Harmon Smith of Duke University said that North Carolina had one of the most thorough involuntary sterilization programs in the nation. This is about the time that the Eugenics Board of North Carolina was disbanded. It was begun in 1933 when the General Assembly enacted a sterilization law (eventually about 38 states had such laws). Under this law, sterilizations were performed supposedly “for the public good.” Most, but not all, of those sterilized were of an I.Q. under 70. In Moya Woodside’s Sterilization in North Carolina (1950), it states: “The duty to institute sterilization proceedings is mandatory on ‘the responsible head of any State penal or charitable institution,’ (In practice, this means the correctional schools, county homes, and mental institutions.) or on the county superintendent of public welfare…. The law appears to have a compulsory character, since it is made the duty of institution or welfare superintendents to bring forward suitable cases for sterilization; and sworn consent is not required from the individual if he or she is a minor or inmate of a state mental institution.” Under the law, the Eugenics Board had jurisdiction in cases of “feeble-mindedness.” Part of the eugenic sterilization movement was the Human Betterment League of North Carolina founded in 1945. Director and charter member of the League was Alice Shelton Gray, who had worked with the infamous Planned Parenthood founder Margaret Sanger. Alice Gray had a significant role in rearing Gordon Gray, son of Alice’s cousin Bowman Gray, founder of the Bowman Gray Medical School in Winston-Salem. In 1940-41, C. Nash Herndon was a Carnegie Fellow there, and later worked with Alice Gray in the eugenic sterilization effort before succeeding her for quite a few years as Director of the Human Betterment League beginning in 1948. He was President of the American Eugenics Society from 1952-1955. This was during the same period that Gordon Gray was President of the Greater University of North Carolina (1950-1955) after being Secretary of the Army in 1949. While head of UNC, Gordon Gray (whose college degree was in psychology) was appointed by President Truman to be Director of the Psychological Strategy Board in Washington, D.C., in 1951. Gordon Gray was later made President Eisenhower’s Special Assistant for National Security Affairs. He was also a member of the Council on Foreign Relations and a Democrat, though one of his sons, Boyden Gray, became a Republican in 1977 (after serving as a law clerk for Supreme Court Justice Earl Warren) and was counsel and Deputy Chief-of-Staff for Vice President George H.W. Bush for 8 years (and has been chief counsel for President Bush at the White House). It is not known to what extent Boyden Gray shared the eugenic philosophy of Alice Gray, or to what extent he disagreed with it, but it is interesting to note the high level of government contacts the Gray family had over the years with both Democrats and Republicans. On the national level, eugenics was at least part of one plan for the future of the United States. In August 1963, high-ranking officials in the Kennedy administration appointed a secret commission (called the Special Study Group) “to determine the nature of the problems that would confront the United States if and when a condition of ‘permanent peace’ should arrive, and to draft a program for dealing with this contingency.” The work of the commission was later described in Report From Iron Mountain on the Possibility and Desirability of Peace (1967), which describes Iron Mountain, New York, as “an underground nuclear hideout for hundreds of large American corporations… such firms as Standard Oil of New Jersey, Manufacturers Hanover Trust, and Shell.” The commission concluded that “Lasting peace… would almost certainly not be in the best interests of a stable society…. War fills certain functions essential to the stability of our society; until other ways of filling them are developed, the war system must be maintained…. The following substitute institutions, among others, have been proposed for consideration as replacements for the nonmilitary functions of war—an omnipresent, virtually omnipotent police force,… massive global environmental pollution, fictitious alternate enemies,… new religions or other mythologies,… and a comprehensive program of applied eugenics….” The author of the Report, Leonard Lewin, later claimed it was a hoax, but in “News of War and Peace You’re Not Ready For” (Washington Post Book World, November 26, 1967), Harvard economist John Kenneth Galbraith, writing under the pen name of Herschell McLandress, said the Iron Mountain meeting did take place because he was invited to it and told to keep the invitation “strictly confidential.” © 2011 Dennis Cuddy - All Rights Reserved Dennis Laurence Cuddy, historian and political analyst, received a Ph.D. from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (major in American History, minor in political science).
