Even if abortion becomes legal on demand and there are lineups blocks long in front of hospitals that perform as many abor- tions as barbers give haircuts, there are still bound to be unwanted child- ren. Legalized abortions won't solve the poverty or housing problems - everyone knohvs that. But perhaps the chief reason be- hind the demand for so-called "abor- tion reform" is the large number of She says: "We should be producing a society in which children are want.. ed." This of course is not debatable. But what she really meant by the statement is that the way to produce this kind of society is to permit doe.. tors" abort "unwanted" children car- ried by their pregnant mothers. At a recent panel discussion spon- Bored by the North York University Women's Club for instance, Dr. Bette Stephenson of Women's College Hos- pital said, in her opinion that the de.. cision to abort or not to abort should be left entirely up to the pregnant woman and her doctor. The current debate raging about the abortion issue in a sense is a one- sided campaign against the unborn child. UPHOLSTERING BARRISTERS and SOLICITORS Howard G. Ashbourne, BA. Carl W.

It could result in what Some doctors who oppose widening the grounds for abortion call “abor- tion mania" in which women begin to think that abortions are a natural right. When they discover that they can't be legally obtained, in inereas. ing number they resort to the costly and dangerous services of a quack. Parliament obviously has only two ehoiees: keep the law as it stands now or drop it completely so that obtain- ing an abortion is as easy as buying a package of cigarettes. There is sim- ply no other alternative. While Dr. Stephenson is in favor of such boards, she admits that they won't decrease the number of crimin- al abortions one bit. illegal abortions that frequently in.. jure the women having them. On this score it looks as if the Fed- eral government may pass a law auth- orizing hospitals to set up medical ter- mination boards so that abortions will be legal for a number of reasons as well as that of saving a woman's' life which is totally acceptable practise under the present law.
