Thus, helping to create the climate and motivation for future Nazi racist ideology.

Dr. Alfred Ploetz, endorses his essay and supports the superiority of the Caucasian race from which, of course he excepted the Jews' while the Aryans are claimed as the apex of racial perfection.

As the soldiers in the front lines are usually the ones who are killed, this would preserve the purer part of the race from being unnecessarily weakened. He further suggests that a panel of Doctors be present at the birth of each child to judge whether the child was fit enough to live, and, if not, kill it. |
