BIRTH CONTROL
PROPAGAND A FAVOURED. (United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright). •LONDON. October 16. The National Council of Women, at the annual conference, held at Manchester, passed a resolution, by a huge majority, in favour of birth control information being given at the maternity and child welfare clinics. Speakers declared that working mothers were extraordinarily ignorant in this connection, and efforts were made to limit families in an amazing inept and dangerous way. They pointed out that expensive materials were being wrongly used and that immense exploitation was carried on in connection with sale of these materials, amounting to a species of blackmail. There was an attempt to move the rejection of the motion. This ended in an uproar.
