Now Congress is asked to correct that blunder, and just as Comstock showed your predecessors samples of the disgraceful traffic of the seventies, so we present to you herewith samples of the letters which the League constantly receives in great quantity from suffering parents whose lives are being made miserable by the error that was unwittingly made fifty years ago. Just as Congress responded to the need presented to them in 1873, we ask you to respond to the need now presented to you in 1923, and to correct the blunder with as much speed as that in which it was originally made. Yours very truly, Voluntary Parenthood League.” (The original wording and spelling is given in these letters.) DEAR FRIENDS: You have no idea how bad I need your help. I am 38 years old and am the mother of 6 living children and one dead. Have been married twice.
