Four impoverished men hired by "The Medical Review of Reviews" carry signs with the eugenics slogans, "I am a burden to myself and the State. Should I be allowed to propagate?," "I must drink alcohol to sustain life. Shall I transfer the craving to others?," "Would prisons and asylums be filled if my kind had no children?," and "I cannot read this Sign. By what right have I children?"
