POPE PIUS REJECTS ARTIFICIAL INSEMINATION
OF HUMAN BEINGS AS IMMORAL AND ILLICIT
I VATICAN CITY, UFi — Pope
I
Pius XII said Saturday artificial
insemination for human beings is
morally impermissible.
The 80 - year - old head of the
Roman Catholic Church addressed
nearly a thousand delegates to the
second World Congress on Fertil
ity and Sterility. They came here
to hear the Pontiff before opening
a five-day congress in Naples on
Monday.
The Pontiff made it clear he
referred to the so-called “test
tube” method of artificial insem
ination. This, he said, must be
rejected as “immoral and abso
lutely illicit.” The Pope recalled
he gave a similar opinion in a
radio address on Sept. 29, 1949.
At that time, the Pope said:
“Insofar as artificial insemination |
is concerned, not only must one!
be extremely reserved, but it is
a duty to discard it outright. But
this, however, is not meant neces
sarily to prohibit the use of cer
tain artificial means that aim
either at facilitating the conjugal
act or at enabling it to arrive at
the natural act that normally com
pletes its proper end.”
Saturday the Pontiff said arti
ficial insemination surpassed the
“limits of right” acquired by vir
tue of the marriage contract. That
right, he said, is one of exercis
ing fully natural sexual capacity
in the natural fulfillment of the
matrimonial act.
The marriage contract, he said,
does not confer the right to arti
ficial insemination because such
a right is in no manner expressed
in the right of the natural con
jugal act.
Riglit-to-Work Law
Not Applicable
To RR Industry
WASHINGTON, (J>'—The Su
preme Court today unanimously
struck down the application of
state “right-to-work” laws in the
railroad industry.
Justice Douglas delivered the
decision, upholding a 1951 amend
ment of the National Railway La
bor Act which authorized the rail
roads and labor unions to enter
into union shop agreements.
Under union shop agreements,
workers must join within 60 days
the labor organization represent
ing their class of workers or lose
their jobs.
Eighteen states have laws which
forbid making union membership
or non-membership a condition to |
employment. These are known as |
“right-to-work” laws.
The railroad act amendment j
specifically permits the unjon |
shop, state laws notwithstanding.
The Taft-Hartley Act, on the
other hand, permits the union
shop but specifies the permission
does not apply in states having
laws prohibiting it.
Today’s decision upheld an ap
peal by 16 non-operating railway
labor organizations from a ruling
by the Nebraska Supreme Court.
The Nebraska court said that the
state’s right-to-work law super
seded the Railway Labor Act’s
union shop amendment.
A 1946 amendment to the Neb
raska constitution says no person
may be denied a job because he
refuses to join a union.

New York Giants
May Shift Club
To Minneapolis
NEW YOR^C, (A*) — President
Horajce Stoneham of the New
York Giants admitted he has been
thinking for more than a year
about shifting the National Lea
gue club to Minneapolis. At the
same time he said he was inter
ested in New York City’s plans
for erecting a huge stadium on
Manhattan’s west side which
would house the Giants.
“We’ve been thinking that
'moving to Minneapolis) for a
year and a half and I thought
everybody knew it,” Stoneham
said. “It’s no secret.”
There has been much specula
tion over a possible Giants shift
to Minneapolis, where the club
owns the American Assn, fran
chise, but not until now has
Stoneham personally conceded
such a move was being contem
plated.

Colorado Supreme Court To Decide
Whether Graham Will Die Aug. 26
Without a Review of His Conviction
DENVER, OP — For the first'
time in Colorado history, the state
supreme court has been asked to
decide if a convicted murderer
should be allowed to die with
out review of his conviction.
The unprecedented petition was
filed Friday by court-appointed
lawyers for John Gilbert Graham.
Graham, 24, has been sentenced
to die in the gas chamber the
week of Aug. 26 for murdering
his mother in an airliner ex
plosion that took 43 other lives.
The doomed man, married and the
father of two children, has spurn
ed his lawyer’s effort to appeal.
The petition asks the high court
to determine “as promptly as pos
sible” whether an appeal of the
case shall be required.
“There may be numerous mo
tives as to the request” made
earlier by Graham that he be
executed as soon as convenient,
the document said, adding:
“We feel that there is a prob
lem of legal ethics herein, and we
therefore ask for guidance and
ask that the Supreme Court of
Colorado resolve the question
herein by determining whether a
person of definite psychopathic
characteristics should be permit
ted to abandon his appeal in a
capital case, where the court-ap
pointed attorneys believe there is
some merit to the legal conten
*
tions advanced by the defendant
in his motion -for a new trial and
in his assignments of error.”
The document cited 19 points of
alleged error in conduct of Gra
ham’s trial, which ended May 4.
The day after his conviction,
Graham wrote an affidavit from
his Denver County jail cell ask
ing all appeals be waived and
that he be executed as soon as
possible.
