- Text of motion
- Whereas General Synod has pledged itself to pursue a vigorous campaign against hunger, and
- Whereas starvation is linked with overpopulation in many of the emerging Nations, and
- Whereas the birthrate in these countries far exceeds the death rate from all causes, thus compounding the problem,
- Be it resolved therefore,
- That this General Synod considers it imperative that any action to combat hunger be linked closely to a simultaneously conducted vigorous campaign of instruction in the techniques of birth control. CARRIED in both Houses.
