Birth Control
December 4, 1929 issue

add to cart   close window

Public discussions of birth control, even in New York City, New York, still arouse the righteous and frighten the faint of heart. The usual fireworks accompanied the conference recently held under the auspices of the American Birth Control League. In the first place, Dr. Shirley Wynne, Commissioner of Health of New York, canceled his scheduled speech on Birth Control and Health, which he had agreed to make. At least those who arranged the conference were so sure he had agreed that they announced it in a leaflet three weeks before the meeting opened.
