Wow. This is right out of a sci fi novel. It's a great article.
Did Yale University plan to create an intellectually superior race of children to repopulate Britain after World War Two?
Yale University has been accused of trying to create a super race of British children during War World Two, it emerged today.
The university offered to evacuate children of Oxford University staff in 1940, but it appears there could have been a sinister motive behind their seemingly kind offer.
There are now concerns that leaders of the eugenics movement at Yale University may have extended the invitation because they planned to repopulate a devastated Britain with a race of intellectually superior children.
And this:
Gaddis Smith, Emeritus Professor of History at Yale, describes Yale's president James Angell, who ruled in 1937, as 'a fanatic eugenicist in the worst meaning of that word.'
He also said the university was anti-Semitic at that time and has seen documents that there was discomfort when it emerged a mother of one of the Oxford evacuees was 'a Jewess.'
