Liberal Bloc Moves To Strengthen Bill WASHINGTON (UPI) — Senate leaders believe they may have a tougher time heading off liberal bloc moves to strengthen the civil rights bill than in sidetracking efforts to weaken the measure. Most of the emphasis to date has been on the task of dampening conservative moves to modify the House-passed bill. Republican Leader Everett M. Dirksen, 111., took the lead in offering a series of revisions which this week were compromised in a “package” of moderate changes. But the liberals of both parties have not really had thensay yet about the bill. Democratic and Republican senators will review the bipartisan package of amendments to the bill at separate conferences today. When all the talking is over, the package is expected to have the support of most members of both parties. The Senate was called ~ to meet again at 10 a.m. EDT today, the 56th day of debate on the rights bill. Die Senate’s southern bloc made it clear Thursday that it would support' only a skeletonized version of the rights bill. Tax Program Given Retailers' Backing INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — The oft-nftligned tax program enacted by the 1963 Indiana Legislature drew support today from the Indiana Retail Council, Inc., an organization of Hoosier merchants. “While political aspirants flood the state with a torrent of facts and fantasy, hoping to gain political advantage by throwing their political weight around, Indiana retailers are pushing forward their campaign for retention and possible improvement of the taxation system,” said a newsletter of the council signed by executive vice president Charles B. VanNuys. “Hoosier merchants regard the extensive tax legislation of 1963 as the first major updating of taxation statutes since property tax relief was first afforded in 1933 by passage of the Indiana gross income tax act."

Birth Control Pill Developer Is Denounced CLEVELAND, Ohio (UPD-A Roman Catholic developer of birth control pills today wa s blasted as “a moral rapist” by Msgr. Carney, director of the Family Life Bureau of the Cleveland Catholic diocese. Dr. John Rock of Brookline, Mass., in a speech here Wednesday said suggestions that a new pill acceptable to the Catholic Church would soon be ready for general use were overly optimistic. In his book, “The Time Has Come,” he argues the church should accept the contraceptive pill. Msgr. Carney called Rock “a moral rapist, using his strength as a man of science to assault the faith of his fellow Catholics.” “It must be made clear to our Catholic people,” Carney said, “that family planning and contraceptive control are not synonymous.” Carney also attacked the statement of Rock that Catholics should follow their own conscience on the question of birth control. “Not every «nan can rely on the judgment of his own conscience,” Carney said. Just as we need an interpretation for civil law, we need an interpretation for the moral law of the church. “The Church sees herself as a guardian of moral truth with the understanding that all men do not have equal capacity for determining it for themselves,” he added. He said the Catholic Church was not, as Rock said, tending to lean toward acceptance of the use of oral contraceptives. He said a statement in 1958 by Pope Pius XII that “Medication ... to prevent conception by impeding ovulation (is) dealing with direct sterilization” made the Church’s position clear. • Chicago Livestock CHICAGO (UPD—Livestock: Hogs 7,500; steady to 25 higher; mostly No 1-2 190-225 lb 15.75-16.00; mixed No 1-3 190-230 lb 15.00-15.75: 230-250 lb 14.5015.00; No 2-3 240-260 lb 14.0014.50; 260-300 lb 13.50-14.00.
