Volume One, Number Four -- April 1971

Volume 1, Number 4 of Women's Press is a snapshot of an exhilarating, difficult, intense time. Abortion is still illegal, although an abortion rights movement is growing in Oregon and throughout the United States. The federal department of Health, Education, and Welfare has conducted an investigation into sex discrimination at the University of Oregon. The US war in Indochina still rages, and feminist women are among the activists working to end it.
