...mother's life or also when her health is endangered. Discussion of such bills is painful to watch. In Colorado, the medical profession was concerned that a liberalization would place the burden of life and death decisions in the hands of doctors, but the liberalization passed. On a lower plane, in Massachusetts, "the value of life" argument is coupled with the vindictive plea that liberalized abortion will encourage promiscuity...

In a recent poll published in Eugenics Quarterly, only two per cent of women practicing family limitation did so for "general social reasons." The pain of an unwanted child is personal. 30-33 per cent of all lower-income families and seven per cent of all college educated families experience that pain.

When he interviewed me at dinner a few months ago, he smiled often, and his conversation was an anecdotal as his profile-writing. Keeping his notebook far over to the right of the table, he took notes as unobtrusively...
