Illinois Birth Control The Illinois Public Aid Commission has approved a state-wide policy to use state funds to pay for birth control services for persons on relief who desire it. This will come as a shock to those who feel that birth control is morally wrong. But it is not obligatory —it is simply permissive. This means that those who oppose it need not take advantage of the law. In our country we do not all live under the same moral law. Some believe drinking alcoholic beverages is immoral. It is now legal for welfare patients in seven states. Some believe smoking is immoral — or lipstick — or driving their own automobile. But, fortunately, this is a large enough country to include varied beliefs. Each practices as he pleases, and each has the right to encourage others in the “right” way. But no one has the right to exceed the law and the will of the majority, and impose his beliefs unnecessarily on the other. The state of Illinois is presently paying sll million a month for aid to dependent children. Many are unwanted, uncared-for, misguided little children who grow up to be bigger problems than then parents. If you believe that birth control is morally wrong, as far as you are concerned, that settles that, and the question is closed, regardless of any extenuating circumstances. But if your mind is not closed by belief, there ; are many facts to be taken under consideration. The very first year that Adams county existed, it had a family on relief. That was in the year 1836. That same family, and dozens of collateral descendents are still on relief. Not just one family now, dozens of them. Os course we have a moral obligation to care for the destitute but we have no obligation to perpetuate their destitution,’ to create new generations of incompetents. Those who need help through no fault of their own should always be cheerfully cared for. But caring for those who could work and take care of themselves is morally as wrong as not helping those needing it. The law of natural selection, at work in nature, provides that the incompetent fail to survive. We try to cushion that in human society. But do we need necessarily, to perpetuate incompetence? Can that be what is intended for us to do? Editorial Writer Today Dick D. Heller, Jr.
