Along with poverty, ignorance and moral strictures against birth control, the unpredictability of human sexual practices makes unwanted pregnancy inevitable. The way to deal with the problem forthrightly is on terms that permit the individual, guided by conscience and intelligence, to make a choice unhampered by archaic and hypocritical concepts and statutes...
Hominy & Homilies. Last week, at the Southern Governors' annual conference at Asheville, N.C., Maddox launched into archaic harangues against federal guidelines to desegregate schools, denounced the war on poverty ("It's breeding a generation of bums"), sneered at his fellow Governors for bowing to the "King" in Washington.

...weekly "organ recitals" for comparison of diagnoses and autopsy findings. This still might not increase the number of autopsies substantially, for in most states, if death occurs in a hospital or is not "suspicious," an autopsy is illegal without consent of the next of kin. Dr. Prutting suggests that "archaic state laws" should be revised so that consent is not required, and the dead can aid the living...
