With the rise of the Nazis in 1934, Dr. Ludwig Fabel left Germany with his family to work as an economic consultant for Hunan Province in China. His work took him to remote areas of China and Northern Burma to identify opportunities for economic development at a time that Japan relentlessly was waging war. As conditions worsened, he fled to Beijing where he taught at Fu Jen University until the end of World War II.

After completing out his career as a professor at the University of Houston, he enjoyed a retirement of 25 years in Portugal with his wife, Emily.

We found little evidence to support claims that Clara was an outspoken pacifist who took her life because of her disapproval of Fritz Haber's involvement in chemical warfare.
