SOCIAL HYGIENE BILL
CONDEMNED BY CHRISTCHURCH WOMEN. Pres* Association. CHRISTCHURCH, October 12. A largely-attended meeting of women to-day carried a resolution protesting against the attempt to re-enact the C.D. Aot under the guise of a Social Hygiene Bill. I)r Blackmoro, who was one of the chief speakers, in the course of his condemnation of the bill, remarked that no other country in the world suffered so much from hasty and ill-considered legislation as New Zealand. A further resolution was carried to the effect that every facility should be given for the free voluntary treatment of sufferers from venereal disease, and urging the establishment of farm colonies for persons suffering from such disease, also the employment of women police and instruction in moral education.
