The Bavarians claimed they had

The Bavarians insisted it always

great deal of thought.
Why are undesirables and
those who are physically I'M
fit allowed to marry, since
marriage In most cases means
parenthood?
/ think the state should
pass q law for the physical
examination of all applicants
for a marriage license. I be-
lieve this law was brought I'D
once, but for some inconceiv-
able reason was turned down.
Can any one give reasons for
this law not standing? I took
this paragraph from an arti-
Gle by Cleveland Moffet and
think IL explains to us why
this law should be:
Every alcoholic, every
consumptive, every degener-
ate, every criminal In the

inalienable right to marry
