.rr 7 -- * THE
UNWANTED CHILD
Centers Being Formed To Teach
Mothera In Matter of Birth Control.
(By Stella Ilanan)
According to the latest figures released
by Federal Relief Administrator,
Harry Hopkins, there are today
3,01*1,308 families on relief. How
many unwanted children have been
born into these families eonnot be calculated,
nor how many will be bora
during the coming winter. Hut figures
garnered here and there tell a
grave and tragic story, present a
problem as yet unrecognized by the
Government.
A recent Milwaukee study shows
that 5,000 persons on relief from
1930 to 1933 had a birth rate 43 per
cent higher than families not on relief.
The Federal Unemployment Relief
Census estimates that in one
year's time, October' 1932 to October
1933, 233,822 children had been born
into families on public relief. In New
York City 9,827 babies arrived during
this same period to mothers on
relief. In Huntington, West Virginia,
Dr. James S. Klump studied 212
families in the so-called charity class
and found that the families averaged
4.7 children, with one child dead and
1.4 abortions per family; that almost
half the breadwinners had been out
of work for two years or more.
The figures pile up to show that
unwelcome children?doomed to privation?have
been born into hundreds
of thousands of relief-supported
homes. Unwanted babies have added
their miserable woes to the already
heavy burden carried by their parents
and by the Government.
Behind these statistics lie untold
tales of heroism and needless suffering.
What chance have these "relief
babies," born into homes broken by
hunger and despair, reared <>n inadequate
funds from the public charity
basket? Child spacing through birth
control, knowledge of how to postpone
the coming of children by scientific,
dependable and harmless methods is
the obvious answer.
Slowly but surely the country is
recognizing that here is a problem
which cannot be ignored. A completion
of centers where contraceptive
advice is given to needy mothers is
issued this week by the American
Birth Control League. It shows that
here and there, state by state and
town by town, doctors and social
workers, ministers, city fathers and
taxpayers are trying to provide birth
i control information for those who
; need it most?families who cannot
pay a private physician's fee, who
are dependent on charity or on pub|
lie relief.
There are today 148 such centers.
California and New York head the
list with 28 each. In the South,
1 Alabama, Georgia, Florida, North
I Carolina and Virginia add ten to the
! Score, while Mississippi, South Caro|
lina and West Virginia chalk up empty
zeros. In general the service is
limited to underprivileged mothers
with one or more children, who need
to know about birth control for health
reasons. Rules of admission are designed
to protect the private physician.
The work is carried on in hospitals,
in settlements, in parish
houses, in county health offices, and
in one case in a city hall.
From Tennessee comes news of the
newest center, opened on November
20th. "We decided that the need
here was so keen we must start
ahead, without waiting for financial
security," writes the doctor in charge.
"A business man gave us two rooms
rent free, two graduate nurses and I
are giving our time. It is our policy
to turn nobody away but to give no
one the service for nothing. One patient
brought us sweet potatoes. We
sold them. Another is doing our
laundry. All help, and all?mothers,
children and taxpayers?benefit."
