Marriage Freedom. The report was written in England by a 21-member committee of theologians, physicians and sociologists under Congregationalist Dr. Norman Goodall, sixtyish, who is secretary of the Joint Committee of the World Council of Churches and the International Missionary Council. The committee substantially accepted the official Anglican and Episcopal position-spelled out at last year's Lambeth Conference (TIME, Sept. 8, 1958)-that there are two, separable, equally moral reasons for marital intercourse: procreation and sexual love...
