Correspondence from Wilfred Talbot Smith to Charles Stansfeld Jones

 

[EXTRACT]

     

 

 

[20 September 1925]

 

 

I have little to say but there is one thing I should like to ask you regarding a statement in the Fourteenth Abhimantric just received.

     

On page 2 it is stated:—"Those persons who, from whatever cause, remain unmarried are obliged by the moral law to remain absolutely continent . . . but under no circumstance is it permissible for an unmarried person to deliberately indulge the sexual appetite in any manner whatsoever, even in thought."

     

I should like to know your view regarding the statement and if you indorse the sentiment.
