Saunders (1907-1991), Chancellor, Professor of Anatomy, and Chair of Medical History and Bibliography at the UC Medical Center San Francisco, gives a welcome, and talks about the roles of women in terms of population explosion, birth control, and the influence of government policy. Much of his talk is based on quotes from Benjamin Franklin.
