"The Equal Rights Amendment: Will it do so little, we don't need it -or so much, we shouldn't have it?"
The paradox stems from the arguments of the groups who oppose the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA).

The Pendleton Reformatory was chosen for observation of P.I. in operation and its relation to the prison as an institution.
