BISHOP'S ARGUMENT.
"BIGGER FAMILY" CAMPAIGN. LONDON, October 25. If individuals are sterilised for the benefit of the community, people who are mentally and bodily perfect should be encouraged, and perhaps compelled, to have large families, argues tho Bishop of Exeter. The Bishop, who is Lord William Gas-coyne-Cecil, and a brother of the Marquis of Salisbury, says that if certain women were to be told that they should have no more children, surely a doctor or a lawyer could be told that he must be sacrificed for the community, and raise a large family. Japan, with a huge birth rate, dominated the China Seas, and the greatness of Italy, according to Mussolini, was due to the high birth rate. If Britons had small families, how could Britain maintain her position?
