That inasmuch as we have in the
Presidential chair a man with high
sense of honor. and with the desire for
peace with all nations that character
ized our great first President and our
martyred Lincoln, and. in view of the
fact that he has his finger on the

relative to the duty of this great ma

we pledge him our sincere prayers and
hearty cooperation as citizens of this
great Republic and as churchmen in
his earnest efforts to keep this nation
from unnecessary war and to have all
nations settle their difficulties by arbi-
tration.
THAT in view of our advanced posi-
ton as a Church in reform work and
because of the dominating influences
of the liquor forces over candidates for
office, we, without regard to partisan
politics, pledge ourselves not to vote
for or support directly or indirectly
any candidate for office who is en-
dorsed by the liquor dealers associa-

The report was very enthusiastically
received by the conference and the
