==Beliefs==
Blacker came to believe that the best way to achieve eugenic goals was to promote medically managed birth control. This caused some disputes within the Eugenics society, because some members feared that birth control should only be used by the "unfit", while the "betters" should not limit their breeding.<ref>[http://wellcomelibrary.org/collections/digital-collections/makers-of-modern-genetics/digitised-archives/carlos-paton-blacker/ The Carlos Paton Blacker papers]</ref>
