BIRTH CONTROL SECRETS
NOT FOR THE WORKERS

Margaret Sanger is again before
the courts charged with divulging
the secret of birth control. In the
present instance she opened an coral
Clinic" in New York where women
could get the necessary Aformation
verbally, as the government forbids
the printing of the information.
The propaganda that Margaret
Sanger is pushing is a democratic
movement, if it is nothing else. We
all know that wealthy and $50
'cially" prominent people have the in
formation that the law bars poor peo-
pie from getting. And the movement
is in the direction of the equal appli-
cation Of those laws.
The argument for the repeal of the
laws prohibiting the divulging of
birth control information is a very
strong one. 1t is not the plea of the
Wastrel and the rounder and the roue
those classes have the information,
and they act upon it to the limit. 1t
is not the appeal of the immoral
woman. She has that information.
Without it she would have been I'M
able to be what she is.
1t is the cry of the working class
man, and more especially the working
class woman.
Up to today the propagandists of
the idea have been bounded and perse-
cuted and imprisoned. They have not
had chance to be heard. They have
not been allowed to state their case.
And it is to the credit of Margaret
Sanger that she has stuck steadfast-
~ to her cause, and has endured in
dignities and Imprisonment, just to
be able to state the case.
Millions of women throughout the
land are in sad need of the informa-
ton. No woman through stress of
circumstances or whatever extremity
should be compelled, against her will
or left with no alternative than to run
the risk of undesired pregnancy, to
bear child. Certainly no child should
be conceived for whom there is not
waiting an adequate home, a well
come and security against you at
least throughout his tender years.
1t is within the power of women to
force from present-day society these
desirable guarantees, by the simple
device of refusing to bear children
for servitude, and so it is the pro-
found duty of every one to convey
this knowledge to all working people,
by whatever means necessary.

COOPERATIVE PROGRESS

The English Cooperative Whole
sale Society has recently been making
good progress with its policy of ac-
curing more of the land of the
country for the use Of the people
The problem of land naturalization
in England, always a difficult one,
because of the mate conservatism of
the people, is receiving valuable help
from the voluntary cooperative Or
CARNATIONS. The government, which
is usually willing to follow successful
experiments, will find some useful
object lessons in the recent opera
tions of the C. w. S.
Over forty farms have just been
purchased by this Central Fedora
ton of English Consumers and there
by is laid the foundation of interest
ing developments "after the war"
The recent purchases include 1,121
acres of arabic land in Cheshire and
300 acres near Goole, in Yorkshire.
This land is freehold and at present
produces large supplies for the use
of co-operators Sixty cottages for the
workpeople are included with the
farms. There is also a park of
acres and a large residential mansion
which will probably be used, if prec-
edents are followed, for the occupa-
ton of convalescent co-Operators
seeking complete restoration to
health.
Another farm, consisting of 1856
acres and adjoining this Yorkshire
estate, has been purchased by the c..
w. S., which, together with those
already in its possession, increases
the holdings of the C. W. S. to near
ly $500 acres Co-operators and
others will watch the progress of this
enterprise with the keenest of inter
est.-Co-operative Consumer No
