Women Who Put Winter Sports
Before Having Babies
Unbelievable Scenes
Consulting
In Our Rooms, Says
Lord Horder
WHEN women who put going to winter sports before having children go to
see their doctors "some of the scenes in our consuiting rooms are unbelievable," said Lord Horder, the King's physician, recently.
·
He was speaking to the Eugenic Society in London, after Mrs. Dorothy Thurtle, who was the minority of one on the inter-departmental committee on abortion, had said:
"A woman who wants to go winter sporting, or who finds that a pregnancy would interfere with her activities during the season, has no difficulty in persuading certain medical men to perform a suitable operation at
a price."
She added: "The working woman, on the other hand, whose condition might call for such an operation, has the greatest difficulty in getting it." Each Case Treated
On Its Marits

"But we do ask for cover because every now and then, as in the Bourne case, a doctor gets pillorled, mulcted, and so much and maybe depends upon whether he has a judge who really knows what the position is, and whether he has col- lengues who will come forward and waste a day or two to give him sup- port,
