Carrington, though retaining his justice’s commission, has resigned from the Anehjland branch of the association- "'i'he legislative results of an hysterical eugenic agitation,” slates Mr Carrington, in a letter to the registrar, "will be tyranny and a disregard of personal liberty by means of an arbitrary stall- of inquisition, without which the enactment would not be workable.”
