Excerpt from Population and Birth-Control: A SymposiumIn fact, in times such as these, the social worker, the advocate of reforms, is looked upon with impatience, with annoyance, he is considered more than merely a nuisance, he is looked upon as a menace, as an abomination that should be done away with.Nevertheless, all the scant courtesy, all the contumely notwithstanding, the man who believes that he is right, who feels that he has a mission to perform must continue to do his work, must persist in his duty as he sees it, he must deliver his message, even if, under certain circum stances, the message should seem to him a voice in the wilderness.These remarks apply with particular force to the subject of birth-control. When a nation has lost or is about to lose a million of its sons, physically the best specimens of manhood, then it listens with but ill-concealed or Open and angry impatience to the suggestion of limiting the number of offspring, of controlling the production of future war material. But we, who feel that reckless breeding with its resulting overpopulation and economic and moral misery is one of the causes Of war, must not halt in our propa ganda on the contrary, we must, if possible, intensify it. Even a voice in the wilderness is sometimes heard, and unwilling listeners do, now and then, become converted.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
