the frequency Of self induced
abortion is likely to increase,

Not TO Be Adopted Lightly
While he said that abortion

ton Is not a measure to be
adopted lightly and probably in
the long run the adoption Of
the other recommended meas

for abortion. On this question
he made these recommends
tons:
That an inter-agency COM
mittee be appointed to draw up
a statement Of acceptable in

ance of abortions.
That consideration should be
given to extreme youth Of the
mother. mental deficiency Of

mother was not legally or actu-

relations. Rape. incest and
similar circumstances and So

On the question Of what to
