Bitter Protests Over Germany's New Marriage Proposals
Bonn, May 8.
Public opinion has forced the West German Government to have second thoughts on bill deal. ing with the relation between religious and civil marriage ceremonies.
The bill includes a paragraph providing for the abolition of the present threat of up to five years' imprisonment for clergymen "and other religious servants" who conclude a religious mar- riage ceremony for a couple before they have been married by a ólvil registrar.
