Narrative and notes

Narrative - quote
Addison became heavily involved in the Racial Hygiene Association in the 1930s and advocated for birth control (sterilisation) for, as he put it, 'defectives' to ensure good 'social reform' took place in Australia. He spoke in public regularly on these matters, see:
