THE “BULLDOG BREED.”

FOOLS AND HOOLIGANS

(Independent Cable Service.) London, December 6

Sir James Barr, president of the British Medical Association, delivered an address before the Eugenice Education Society yesterday. He said that practical eugenics were i matter of urgent and primary importance, but the country was at present governed by mawkish sentimentality and gross ignorance, and the subject had never been held in high opinion by many legislators. That breed seemed to be degenerated into a lot of garrulous fools who were dear at any price,,let alone £4OO a year. He looked upon such fools as mere of the ground and obstacles in the path of progress, obstacles which should be removed if Great Britain wanted to maintain her position among the nations. Great Britain would have to raise a healthy, intelligent, and self-reliant race. Nowadays the submerged tenth was adding to the population a race of cowardly hooligans. The unfit were the best cared for, and there was no encouragement for the healthy man to have a largo family.
