British War Waste Sparks Controversy Over Life and Birth Control
An open letter criticizes military waste of food in France as public economy clashes with army excesses. The piece argues life is sacred only if it serves the world and ties eugenics and birth control to workers’ rights, citing Dr. Haiselden, William Sanger and the Birth Control League. It warns against large families in poverty and urges workers to take birth control into their own hands to improve health and education for children.
