Letter asking about heredity of cleft lip and palate

merely accept sterilization as a matter of course; I would try to contribute my share of good to the world through my mental capacities. If you cannot answer the question stated in this letter I would appreciate it very much if you would refer me to someone who perhaps has made a careful study of such cases. Respectfully yours, [name obscured] 308 Pitkin Street [city obscured] Colorado. Postscript: Which is the closest state permitting sterilization> Who would one attempt to see and how much does it generally cost? Enclosure:-one three cent stamp.
