Disposable ethics

Sir: I should like to express .rrlY appreciation of the leading article 'Disposable Ethics,' in the current issu of The Spectator.e i There is indeed grave apprehensionn, I believe, the great majority of the people of this country about the ab°r. tion racket and I believe that all res: ponsible journals which give the lead to public opinion are doing a great service. From the evidence available it would seem that this act has done immense harm and very little good, and it Is time to say so.
