National Eugenics is the study of agencies under social control that may 



improve or impair the racial qualities of future generations, 



either physically or mentally. 



It is the intention of the Founder, Mr Francis Galton, that the Laboratory 

 shall act (i) as a storehouse for statistical material bearing on the mental and 

 physical conditions in man and the relation of these conditions to inheritance 

 and environment, (ii) as a centre for the publication or other form of distribution 

 of information concerning National Eugenics. Provision is made in association 

 with the Biometric Laboratory at University College for training in Statistical 

 Method and for assisting research workers in special Eugenics Problems. 



Short courses' of instruction will be provided for those engaged in social, 

 anthropometric; or medical work and desirous of applying- modern methods of 

 analysis to the reduction of their observations.
