“Germany is doing the most foolish thing possible,” declared Professor Ellsworth Huntington, Yale University anthropologist, in a lecture before 500 school teachers. “The Jews driven out of the country average higher intelligence than the Germans that remain there. By their anti-Semitic policy, the Germans are driving out some of their most able people, not only able Jews, but a great many Germans, particularly from her universities. To that extent she is weakening herself.”
