Church Peace Union Wants
Wrong for Individual to
Be Wrong for Ruler.
Is DIVIDED ON DEFENCE

The annual report Of the Church
by Andrew Carnegie with an endowment
Of 100000 to promote international
peace through tho Christian churches.
recommends. as the principal objects to
be secured through the activity Of some
$4,000 organized church bodies In this
country. these two: That Christian
principles should rule States equally
American treaties should DO used ar q
basis which nations might adopt for
the peaceful settlement OF their differ
enceSs in the future. The report was
made public yesterday by DR.. Frederick
Lynch. secretary Of the Union
The report states that while there
has not been unanimity among the trus-
tees Rs to the stand the Union Shall
take on the question Of preparedness
or = conference Of neutral nations to
stop the war. there has been practical
unanimity In organising the churches
for effective service In establishing q
new International order through the
World Alliance for Promoting Intcrna-
tional Friendship Through the Churches.
The Church Peace Union holds that the
first thing TO be insisted upon IL that
Christs principles must rule states Ne
well AZ individuals.
Not IA few WRITER'S says the report,
have held that considerations for the
welfare OF the State will Justify an
action on the part Of "A ruler which In
his personal capacity would not be per-
Missile. Such a view II Inconsistent
with the Christian conception Of moral
duty. That which IL wrong In a mar
Is not less wrong because a. a ruler he
deems II to be to the advantage OF his
State. The contrary doctrine has al
ready brought untold cruelty nj In
justice to thousands OF innocent men
and women. Its maintenance makes II
impossible for any community to rely
upon anything else than armed force.
II Is the duty OF Christian men to
discover a means whereby Christian
principles can be enforced 10 far az

Nearly all the shippers OF the barges
are married and most of them had their
wives and children along. The women
and children stayed in tho little cabins
and the barges simply drifted, the skip
pers hoping that they would not be
driven out to sea.
Life savers at the station on the
inner side Of the Hook saw the barges
drifting before a seventy-fve mile gale
Ard the coast guard cutter Seneca was
notified by wireless Of their plight.
Meanwhile the soldiers Of Fort Hancock
were turned out and the tender at the
Hook put out to help the bargemen and
their families. Before any of the gal

the barges had piled up on the beach.
