This is what the McMillan Report on Abortion said in 1937: “It has been estimated that at least one pregnancy in every five ends in abortion; in other words that some 6000 abortions occur in New Zealand every year. Of these it is believed that 4000, at a conservative estimate, are criminally induced...*' That was IQ years ago. Today abortion is still inexcusably high. A recent group survey showed that for every 100 births there were seven accidental abortions (miscarriages) and THIRTEEN induced abortions. Illegally induced abortion is a crime against womanhood and against humanity. Those who condone it are as guilty as those who practise it. Accidental abortion is best prevented by antenatal care. Public conscience and public opinion can fight for safe and sane motherhood. ISSUED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH Keep this announcement for future reference. lie
