Lois Weber and Phillips Smalley, Universal, 1916. District Attorney Richard Walton (Tyrone Power Sr.) wants children and must prosecute a doctor for mailing contraceptive advice. His wife Edith and her circle have been seeing another doctor for abortions. Weber treats birth control as a Progressive cause and abortion as a crime, in the eugenic language of the moment. Motion Picture News reported crowds outside the Globe on Broadway. The picture made its cost back in California state rights alone.
