Dec. 3 - Not since Margaret Sanger's crusade to legalize birth control
in the 1920s has family planning come under such assault. Pharmacists
around the country are refusing to fill prescriptions for
birth-control pills, exercising their right to "refuse and refer"
under the industry's code of ethics. These self-styled refuseniks are
so ardent they generally don't offer a referral, and in small-town
America there is often only one pharmacy in town anyway.
