Photo Credit: Don Kaiser By Estelle Atwell Animal causes have their earnest chamions, but these champions come under attack now and then from some who accuse them of loving animals more than people. In the quarterly magazine for winter, 1979, published by the Humane Society of the United States, a reply to this charge is made by Lord Houghton, a member of the British Parliament who particpated in a debate on hare coursing during which another member voiced the opinion that he (Lord Houghton) cared for animals more than he cared for children. It was placed on the record. Lord Houghton took an opportunity later to refute the charge and made these notable comments: "All I want to dot for a moment or two is to reply to it on my behalf and on behalf of many others who suffer from this kind of insinuation. "I do not equate animals with children, nor do I make them alternatives in my affections, my concern, or my work. They are a different species each with their rights and claims upon the living world. It is not a matter of priorities, of 'either- or\ it is a matter of the moral standards of human beings, and those to me are all em­ bracing and all pervasive. They are all that justifies the con­ tinued existence of mankind. I am not called upon to apportion my deepest feelings between children and animals. I care about all living things--and for the weak and helpless most of all. "Moreover, I have no ob­ sessions; I am not a fanatic; I am not crazy. I reject the proposition that fondness for animals implies some lack of concern for human beings. Do I have to prove a love of children by being cruel to animals? Is the person who is cruel to animals likely to love chiildren all the more? Is that the proposition, or is cruelty an evil streak in the nature of some, humans which makes selflesS love, whether for humans or animals, impossible? "When Queen Victoria was urging members of this House to support the Cruelty to Animals Bill of 1876, did any noble Lord suggest that Her Majesty (who had nine children) cared more for animals than for children? If not, how many children does not have to have to be exempt from this imputation? How can one disprove it? The more one analyzes this taunt, the more unfair it becomes. With great respect, I ask that we should hear no more of it." Hansard (House of Lords Report), Monday, June 19, 1978.
