One of the speakers at the presentation in New York City of a Town Hall Club medal to birth control pioneer Margaret Sanger, President MacCracken said: “It has been my experience that, of all hated things, youth hates most to be betrayed.

Denied access to the facts, and to legal means, youth suspects hypocrisy and rationalization.”
