Freedom to Worship God"

One of the conditions which promotes
peace between the states of the United
States is that, wherever any citizen may
be, he is free to enjoy whatever form of
religion he prefers. He may be a Chris
tan, M~odhammedan, or pagan, as he
pleases, only he must preserve the peace
and live a decent life. World-peace will
be Enthusiastically promoted If there pre-
prevails such a system of d law that
when a man goes into any part of the
world, he will be free to worship God
after any form he prefers. Other lib
critics. now not known in all countries,
may be expected in the growing federation
and homogeneity of the world.-GR. l..
