SEATTLE, July 1.—The question of birth control was placed today before the convention of the merged Congre- gational an1 Christian Churches, bear- ing the overwhelming approval of a seminar on “the family and youth.” | Only two members of a group of 110 delegates, with a number not voting, had disapproved the report. Raps Papal Encyelical. Under the chairmanship of President W. A. Harper of Elon College, North arolina, the:seminar debated the ques- fion openly yesterday. i The action was taken approving the ecent findings and conclusions of a ederal Council of Churches committee. ' In the discussion President Harper declared that Pope Pius XI, in his| encyclical on marriege lest coniradicted himself by first siating oppesition to any form cf birth con- trol and then saying a particular kind b1 birth control, continence within the marriege relationship, was permissible. Minority Report Made. | The majority report cf the Findings | Committee was presented by Rev. George Hylton, Medford, Mass., Mrs. Lawrence A. Wilson, Stockton, Calif., both married and parents, in favor of birth control. “Our denomination should clearly in- dicate that it does not hold that there is_anything inherently wrong in sex relationships,” Mrs. Wilson said, “and that it does not recognize a line of separation existing between the phys- ical and spiritual.” A vigorous minority report in oppo- sition was given by Rev. William West-% wood, San Francisco. WITNESS IS CHARGED | | IN AIRPORT FAILURE W. P. Buchler Is Held on Sus- : picion of Grand Larceny in Stock Promotion. By the Associated Press NEW YORK, July 1—A State in- vestigation into the affairs of the New York City Afrport, Inc., was interrupted dramatically when a witness on the stand was arrested, charged with sus- picion of grand larceny.

THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, RADIO SIGNALS TEN MILLION TIMES MORE EXACT COMING U. S. Station Here Developing Most Accu- rate Broadcast—Interference Minimized Through Calibration. BY ROBERT MACK. Radio signals 10,000,000 times as ac- curate as the most precise impulses kncwn today soon will be strezking from the radio station owned, built and operated by Uncle Sam in Washington. This station doesn't broadcast in voice, so it will hold no entertainment value for radio listeners. But it now is doing yeoman service in keeping broadcasting ‘and all other kinds of radio stations calibrated to their fre- quencles, with the result that inter- ference for listeners is greatly mini- mized. To the listener the signals emanating from Station WWV of the Bureau of Standards are simply a meaningless series of dots and dashes. But to the experienced radioman and to the tech- nically inclined listener they provide a means of calibrating his set, whether it b> transmitting or receiving, to the 'nth degree of accuracy.
