SMALLER FAMILIES.
DOCTRINE OF BIRTH CONTROL. » AID TO EARLY MARRIAGE. By Telegraph.—Press Assn.— Copyright. Received July 12, 6.5 p.m. London, July 11. Dr. Drysdale, the president, at th a opening of the fifth International Birth Control Conference, said the whole world was ready for the doctrine of birth control. East and west were ready to meet on this fundamental human need and to-day all organised I opposition was dead, except in the case of the Roman Catholic Church, “which is of the greatest value to the movement by its naked display of bigotry and intolerance.” The clergy of all denominations vied with doctors and lawyers in having the smallest families. The only practicable method of securing social purity was the promotion of sexual purity through the advocacy of general early marriage, which would be rendered possible by the removal of the fear of large families. Twenty million people had adopted family limitation in the last forty-five years.— Aus.NJZ. Cable Asszu
