Parenthood, säld. Divorce,
The supreme importance of the family is the keynote of the declara tions on marriage and sex. The obligation of parenthood is phasised; its selfish avoidance is condemned.
The resolutions say:

Racial Questions. »>
On the question of race, the dangers of that form of pride known as race superiority are underlined; the colour bar within the Church is
condemned, and the duty of hiding" subject races toward self-govern- ment is declared..

The new Church in South India, if the scheme is completed will not be a member of the group "of Anglican churches, though in other ways the Anglican section of it will still remain a church of the Prayer- book.
An early restoration of commu- nion with the Orthodox Churches of the East and with the Old Catholics is hoped for, and "the Archbishop of Canterbury is to ap- point commissions of theologians to confer with representatives of these churches.
Birth Control
As for birth control, under, skle- guards and with qualifications the "other Conference agrees that methods than that of abstinence may be used, provided this is done in the light of Christian principles." But the use of methods of con- ception-control in marriage from
motives of selfishness, luxury, or mere convenience is strongly con- demned.
The evils springing from the use of contraceptives among the on- married are regarded with alarm, and legislation forbidding the ex- posure for sale and unrestricted advertisement of contraceptives

Women and the Church.
In enlarging the work entrusted to Deaconesses, whom, it is propos ed, should be empowered to baptise, the Conference has not removed the barrier to ordination.
The resolution says:-
"The Order of Deaconess is for women the one and only Order of the ministry which we can recom mend our branch of the Catholic
