Catholic spokesman on many moral issues in and out of' Parliament, helped found the Human Rights Society. The society, as its name Implies is based on the Hu- man Rights Charter of the United -Nations and seeks to promote dis- cussion not only of the arguments against euthanasia but a wider dia- logue _on the whole question of the. right of life. St John Stevas. while opposing Pope Paul's encyclical ofr birth-con- trol, Humanae Vitae, led an unsuc- cessful campaign in Parliament and public against the recent legislation permitting abortion on demand in Britain. Both he and The Catholic Herald, London weekly, have regretted the lack of official religious support given to the new Human Rights So- ciety. Both John Cardinal Heenan of Westminster aj^_Archbishop MichaeL operating through: the—mass media In favor of what Cardinal Heenan calls \permissive morality\ can whip jle-class-canv paign in its favor. ,,-The opposition to the present bill, Introduced by Lord Raglan in the \Lords ^vasf surprisingly sifting. OeiF~ orally the press, the medical profes- sion and public commentators attack- ed it with horror, forecasting terrible possibilities once the principle of -BIWMI legislation, frmyovnr restricted In tills bill, had been accepted. Lord Raglan claimed that public -opinion- was? generally disposed to- ward such a change in the law, but member after member of the Lords rose up to reject his claim and at- tack his bill. Voiced opposition was much stronger in the debate than the actual vote. St John Steves, at his press con- ference, warned that legal recogni- tion of Voluntary euthanasia would be followed by pressure to extend its scope to deformed persons, im- beciles and eventually to the old and anyone who could be shown to con- stitute a burden of society.

Cripples and mental defectives are merely handi- capped.\ If abortion had been described as the destruction of life in the womb- killing of the unbom child is perhaps too emotive an expression—fewer might regard it as a stage in the progressof civilization, especially now thai _4n~.practice we have abortion ^on demand.
