Two Children Per Family Policy Urged by Southern Presbyterians
At Massanutten Springs Virginia the Southern Presbyterian general assembly urged limiting children to two per couple to curb population growth and hunger. They suggested adoption if more children are desired. The assembly also criticized the Indochina war policy while praising administration steps, provoking youth protests. The body moved to rein in an independent missionary group and approved funds for the black caucus while advancing plans to make Tuskegee's vocational college a church institution. About 6,000 black members and 50 black clergy are in the denomination.

Matter Of Suppression By James Reston
James Reston argues the United States versus the New York Times centers on the balance between security and freedom. He frames it as a broader clash over censorship versus publishing, noting past cases from Bay of Pigs to U-2 flights and the Yalta Papers. He stresses that no universal rule fits all events and emphasizes human judgment in editing daily papers.
