American inventor, author and scholar Seth K. Humphrey turned his mind to the only real reason behind the rise and fall of civilization: race. Humphrey's racial analysis, his call for eugenics and racial betterment ring as true now as when first penned. "Dissipation of the better racial values and multiplication of the poorer have played a continuous part at tumbling race, state, and civilization into a dusty heap with periodic certainty..." "The best of natural conditions failed to make anything of the American Indian or the Australian aborigine. The White man finds himself in possession of the best of the earth because of his capacity for choosing well; the best of the earth did not make him a White man..." "It is safe to assert that families which average less than three children brought to maturity are in process of dying out."
