Judicial Salaries Increased Salaries for Supreme and High Court Judges and for the President of the Circuit Court have been increased by £1,300 to £1,000 a year, while District Justices secure an increase of £637.50. The increases were given on the basis of 7 per cent from April 1970 and 10 per cent as from 1st January 1971. The basis of the increase is similar to that which applied to the whole public service. In extenuation of the new increase a Govern- ment spokesman said last night that the judiciary did not receive the last two rounds and that the new increases, and their salaries generally, are subject ot heavy income tax and surtax.
and about a week later the Minister for Finance, Mr. Colley, asked the public salaries review body to examine the general level of remuneration for the Taoiseach, Deputies, Senators, and the judiciary as well as senior civil servants. Judges received an increase previously in 1968. The Chief Justice's salary now is £10,720. Other senior Judges receive between £9,380 and £6,700. Previously such increases required legislation, but new laws now require merely a Government order, to be laid on the table of the House without any announce- ment : thus the new increases were not noticed by Dáil Deputies or the public.
The order in regard to the new increases for Judges was placed on the table of the Dáil last March 25th

Advocates of birth control maintain that a step such as that which the court is contemplating would clear the way for a rethinking of the problem in other Cath- olic countries, especially in Latin America, on the grounds that what can be done in Rome itself can he attempted elsewhere in the Catholic world. The protagonist of this long legal battle is Dr. Luigi de Marchi, a dedicated, determined, difficult Milanese who is secretary of an organisation called the AXE.D. The irony of the situation is that the A.I.E.D.'s member- ship of the International Planned Parenthood Feder- ation, which has its seat in London, was terminated in 1965. (Times Service)
Abrogation of the existing ban on every form of disseminating information about birth control and, implicitly, recourse to birth control itself, will have its repercussions far beyond Italy. The laws which the Court is thought to be ready to declare unconstitutional date from Fascist times and fitted the theories on the subject both of the Fascist regime and the Catholic Church. They have effectively stifled not only the spread of knowledge about birth control and its use at a popular level, but have also blocked contraceptive research as well as teaching and general information on the
