. Scrub Population.

BY JUDSON UVQUINN , NOTTINGHAM, England. May 20 __ (AP; - Bishop Ernest William Barnes of the Church of England| today advocated euthanasia, or easy| death‘, for defective children and meically controlled sterilization to lessen what he called the "Scrub population."

"Fairly often we hear of a child being born pltirlbly defective in mind! or body and of the parents’ relief when it dies." the 71-year-old Bishop of Birmingham told the an- nual co-operntive congress.

"l am convinced that in such oases euthanasia should be permit- ted unfit? proper safeguards. Equally from a Christian standpoint. as I see the rrrattcr. there is no objec- ion to medically controlled steril- lzation.

“We in England have avoided those problems. but they are prob- lems which. for our national wel- fare. we must ultimately try to solve."

He said bad racial stock was a growing source of anxiety to thoughtful men in ivory country where western civilim ion prevailed.

In the development of cattle, he declared, herds breeding at random sooner or later develop "scrub cat- tle." Under harsh social conditions of other penturies. he added. defect- ive children were not able to sur- vive but today, with human social services. problem children grew up to create problem families. Bud "consequently a scrub population was appearing and war intensified the process."

!Lift Restrictions On Hardwood Veneer Logs

OTTAWA. Ma 30 — (OP) -—-

Munitions ter Howe an- nounced tonight the lifti of all restrictions on the use an distri-

bution of hardwood aircraft veneer logs and e sbandrment of Veneer Log Su iy, Ltd.. a Crown company. whc is surrendering its charter.

The com any, established in i942, had t e task of inspecting, purchasing and allocating birch and maple veneer logs of aircraft quality for Canadian veneer and plywood mills and the British Ministry of Supply.

Hardwood veneers and plywoods have been used in great quanti- ties in the United Kingdom for Mosquitos, trainer planes and gliders, and in Canada for Mos- quitcs and trainer planes. Because of the reduction in trainer plane output, their chief war use now is for Mosquitos. The United King- dom demand for aircraft veneer logs has dropped by about favo- th rds, and the Canadian demand by about half.
