 fife PrdCtiCe

LONDON, April 2-tR-Having test tube" babies vas condemned as adultery and defended as a way to brighten childless homes in the series of lectures publish ed today by the Public Morality Council.
 The issue was important here because of the declining popula tion, high rate of childress mar riageS, and the number of un- married women and young wid ows deprived of husbands and children by the war.
 Most churchmen said artificial insemination is degrading" and adulterous unless the donor is the woman's husband.
 Doctors who treat couples un- able to reproduce normally said artificial insemination, either by the husband or a stranger, was "often justifiable."
 Lawyers said children born after artificial insemination by strang CT are illegitimate. le
 A Sociologist, Prof. E. O. James of london University, said arti- fitial insemination by third person jeopardized rather than safeguarded marital happiness
 One practitioner, Dr. Mary Bar ton, said there have been 300 test tube" babies born in England in the last five years after arti- fioial insemination by strangers and thousands" born after arti- ficial insemination by husbands.
 Dr. Barton, a gynecologist who has arrnged artificial inseminations said ten percent of all British marriage were infertile and adop- ton, in 70 percent of the cases, woud not satisfy the woman's ma ternal instincts.
