Letter from Helen M. Bent

Helen M. Bent writes to Theodore Roosevelt about his upcoming speech on “The Conservation of Womanhood and Childhood.” She would like Roosevelt to specifically bring up venereal diseases and how it threatens the lives of innocent women and children. She writes that many women’s organizations have focused on this problem for years and are frustrated since, as women with little political power, state boards of health have not done enough to address the topic.
