WORLD WAR GIVEN
BLAME FOR ILLS
Decline of Human Phys
ique, intelligence, Moral
ty Are Its Results

Cambridge, Mass, July 26.-(UP)
- DR.. Earnest A. Hooton, Harvard's
famed anthropologist, believes the
World War Is largely responsible
for the decline in human physique,
intelligence and morality which
has led in Europe to the abandon
,nent of individual liberty and free
institutions"
He told the New England con-
ference on tomorrow's children last
night that war kills and cripples
the best and most vigorous Of the
breeding stock and wreaks havoc
upon the nervous and endocrine or
CARNATIONS of potential mothers"
lowering the quality of their Off
spring.
War depresses "nutritional and
general environmental conditions"
he said, 80 that postwar gener-
alton Is conceived In pathology ana
born in despaid."
He believed that euthanasia -
painless death" - should be legal
lied for performance by doctors to
rid the nation Of the painfully and
hopelessly diseased and the con-
Centrally deformed and deficient.
Multiplication of mentally and
physically sub-normal persons has
made the collopse Of civilization an
imminent catastrophe" he said.
Hooton offered a three-joint pro-
gram TO rthe social and biological
reclamation Of man that consisted
Of:
1.-The re-education Of the hu-
man animal taken ''as is.
Aggregation Of the biologically
and sociologically unfit with ulti-
mate reduction of this element by
restriction upon their breeding.
3.-An intensive effort to learn
by the study of human matings the
laws that govern human heredity
for the purpose of breeding better
men.
THE fifth column which offers
the greatest threat to democracy Is
not that Of totalitarian agents, but
of mental and constitutional in
feriors," he said. They are rotting
the heart of the nation. Nor car
they be reclaimed by morad suasion
or by public largesS."
He recommended permanent Sc
gregation under humane conditions
of all "insance, feeble-minded and
habitaully criminalistic" persons.

Hartford, July 26-It was made
known today at the offices OF the
Connecticut Aeronautical Develop
ment Commission in Hartford that
Harvey L. Williams, executive d.
rector of the commission, had re-
Gently filed a brief with the Nation
al Advisory Committee for Aero
nautics concerning the advantages
of the state for the location of the
new aircraft engine research labo-
ratory for which funds were re-
Gently voted by Congress. In addi-
ton, Luis de Florez, chairman OF
the Aeronautical Development
Commission has been in commune
cation with DR.. George Lewis OF the
N. A. c. A. In an attempto assure
full consideration of Connecticut as
a location for this new aircraft en-
CINE facility.
Members of the Connecticut dele
CATION in Congress have been fol-
loving the course of the legislation
appropriating funds for the new
aircraft engine research laboratory
since early this year, and have CO.
operated closely with the Conrec-
ticut Aeronautical Development
Commission in the commissions ef-
forts to obtain favorable considera-
tien of the state as site. Shortly
after the funds were appropriated
by a recent act, the National Ad-
yisory Committed or Aeronautics
sent out notices that 1t would re-
ceive proposals from any cities or
states interested in beng consid-
cred as a possible location for the
new laboratory. Several Connect
cut cities filed statements stressing
local advantages of sites that are
!. available. The Connecticut Aero
nautical Development Commission
MED a brief setting forth the adj
Marriages Of the state as a whole
incl iding its nearness to a large
pror 'rtion of the aircraft eligine
manufacturing industry, the num-
erous and diversified metal working
industries that would be near at
hand to cooperate with such a
laboratory, the excellent research
facilities available in universities
and commercial laboratories In or
near Connecticut which could sup
liment the work of the laboratory,
the precision mindedness Of Con-
necticut labor and number Of
other advantages which would &C
crue from location in the state.
It is understood that a large
number of applications were re-
ceived from the middlewestern cities
chambers of commerce, and similar
bodies. The National Advisory Com
mittee for Aeronautics has taken
each Of these applications under
consideration and has written each
applicant that it will have careful
consideration before a final deci-
sion Is reached.
