- My dear Gates, Thanks for your letter, It is always good to hear from you. I shall try to answer your quention. i I agroe with you entirely that Penrose and Haldene are both defindtely hostile to esugenics, the last move being to change the name of what used to be called The Annals of Eugenics. In my opinion, by far the most important work in human heredity is that done by Race, Kourant, and their associates at the Lister Institution, for this shows clearly,what many of us have suspected - the vast number of differences in gene frequency existing between different human races. I am sorry that there should be propoganda in favour of miscegenation in North America, for I am sure that it can do nothing but harm. Is it beyond human endeavour to give and Justly to administer equal rights to all citizens without fooling ourselves that these are equivalent items. (remote)
