For example, Mrs C. Hodson, a former Secretary of the Society, used her position as Honorary<br />Secretary of the 'International Federation of Eugenics Organizations' to publicise her own admiration of<br />the German regime and to pass on the apologias being put about by German scientists, like Professor<br />Ruedin, who were implementing Hitler's sterilization programme (ER, 28 (1936-37), 217-219). In<br />contrast to Blacker, Mrs Hodson had also given the German compulsory sterilization law a friendly<br />reception when it first appeared (C. B. S. Hodson, Human sterilization to-day (1934, London), 34-38}.<br />[G.R. SEARLE Eugenics and Politics in Britain in the 1930s]
