...flesh unity of male and female is a gift from God, who is concerned with this union which has a significance of its own," said the report on Responsible Marriage and Parenthood adopted last week by the 174th General Assembly of the 3,250,000-member United Presbyterian Church in the U.S.A., meeting in Denver. Deploring "euphemism" and "prudishness," the report made the assumption that the church cannot maintain its "embarrassed silence" of the past because Protestant men and women today need clear stands on sex-as was shown, for example, by the violent pros and cons Vassar President Sarah...

Yet the canny showman salvages the sage, and the plot -girl meets boy, girl chases boy, girl gets boy-is as good as it always has been...
...people, he replied simply: "Enrich them." Plato was one of the most fanatical birth-controllers of all time. Citizens of his ideal state would have to get licenses to reproduce-the women between the ages of 20 and 40, the men between 25 and 55. Aristotle was for planned parenthood by abortion. But the Romans, like their descendants under Mussolini, gave prizes for large families...
