Did Yale University plan to create an intellectually superior race of children to repopulate Britain after World War Two?

Yale University only offered children of Oxford and Cambridge university staff an evacuation to the U.S.
One evacuee has raised questions about the experience asking did they want 'to save the gene pool?'
Yale's president James Angell was 'a fanatic eugenicist in the worst meaning of that word'

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.

'Was Yale hoping to save the offspring of the British academic elite, protecting those 125 children because it saw them as future leadership class, especially deserving of preservation? asks Jonathan Freedland in The Sunday Telegraph.

As the threat of invasion loomed and the terror of Nazi bombs continued, Yale University sent a letter to both Oxford and Cambridge universities, offering children of their fellows and dons evacuation refuge in the U.S.

Calling itself the 'Yale Faculty Committee for Receiving Oxford and Cambridge University children, 125 Oxford children and 35 mothers took up the offer, boarding the SS Antonia from Liverpool to New Haven, Connecticut on 8 July 1940.

Comment by Exposure on February 13, 2012 at 9:25am: Wow, just goes to show you, the vaults are graudually being forced open, as yet again this reveals several things, one they were doing exactly the same thing as the Nazi's, and that these were very likely children of Freemasons, as perhaps more stricter "Christian" raised children might be a bit harder to indocrinate, whereas a child of a Freemason, will probably know a little about all religions and are more opened to experiments of this kind of nature, eugenics being another little favourite passtime. You've got to admire their balls, as they really don't give a dam about 99.9% of us, walk all over us, kick sand in our faces, steal our women or men, then bleed us bleeding dry!

And yet what do the majority of these downdrodden people do?

Exactly... absolutely nothing!!
