Ideal Marriage, Its Physiology and Technique by Dutch gynecologist Th. H. Van de Velde, 53, says that "a fundamental principle of the Roman Catholic sexual code, which corresponds with precepts in Protestant and Jewish doctrine, is the rejection of all actions to prevent conception," but he notes that the "methods of contraception known and practiced today often contravene the demands of Ideal Marriage by diminishing stimulation, disturbing and dislocating normal relations, offending taste." Van de Velde assumes that families will limit their numbers under the guidance of physicians.
Dictator Benito Mussolini pushes through repressive laws against birth control in Fascist Italy, departing from his 1913 neo-Malthusian position.
