A—20 = CARDIAL HAYES SERNON ASSALED Protestant and Jewish Cler- gymen Take Exception to Birth Control Message. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, December 16.—Thir- teen Protestant and Jewish clergymen | beljeve Cardinal Hayes' recent sermon against dissemination of birth control | information to relief families was| “undemocratic and out of place in| America.” In an answer to the Catholic Church official, the clergymen de- | clared the cardinal was privileged to | prescribe to members of his own church but not to members of other | churches. ‘The clergymen said they “must pro- test against any word or =ct of the | dignitaries of the church that would in effect impose upon other Americans the beliefs and practices of Rowman Catholicism.” They pointed out the program of the American Birth Control League and the National Committee on Fed- eral Legislation for Birth Control is not mandatory but “permissive.” “We agree wholeheartedly with the THE WEATHER District of Columbia—Fair and slightly colder, lowest temperature to- night about 32 degrees; Tuesday in- creasing cloudiness, moderate north- west winds.

THE EVENING CAUTION ADVISED IN TRADE UPTURN Possibility of Some Lag in Auto Sales and Uncertainty Over New Deal Cited. Special Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, December 16.—In its weekly summary of the general busi- ness situation the Standard Statistics Co. of New York currently comments as follows: “Notwithstanding favorable current trends there are several uncertainties 'in the immediate business situation STAR, WASHINGTON, that call for a degree of conservatism at this time. “There is a possibility that earlier introduction of 1936 automobiles may result in some slackening of sales early next year. “Another uncertainty is the fate of the New Deal measures. Initial argu- ments on the constitutionality of the A. A. A and the processing taxes are being heard by the Supreme Court and until a decision is- handed down, which is unlikely before early 1936, prices of numerous agricultural prod- ucts will probably be unsteady.” Sunflower Seeds Fed to Cattle.
