The Problem Up to America.

. DR.. L. G. Herbert was the lecturer
of the evening and had for a subject,
1.-THE Crisis and the Cause" DR.. Her
bert is a socialist in belief and the
philosophy of socialism ran through
his lecture. He said in part:
1--WE of America have the world at
our door and the world on our hands.
The greatest problem Of all time pre-
sents itself for solution and II the
United States can do her part in its
solution she will have brought to
realization Christ's vision Of the uni
versal brotherhood Of man.
For years there has been running
through the world a spirit of unrest
among the masses, a spirit inspired
by a wish for democracy The strong
est men OF England and of Germany
have for the last five or ten years
been giving their best time and
thought to the problem OF socialism
The spirit of Tolstoi still lives in Rus

his eyes from the hoe and from the

life. These peasants and laborers and
artisans in Europe had begun to won
der why with all their toll, they had
so little of the profits. I believe, my
friends, that when history shall write
the causes of this awful world war II
will be, that the monarchs OF the
world waged it to silence this spirit
iof unrest among the common people
by diverting their thoughts from so
cial uplift to war.

Monarchs are to Blame.

This war and every other Euro
pean war has been waged by mon
archs. The common people never
wish war. On the face OF 1t, it seems
to prove that civilization and chris
ltianity are but dreams and that God
is dead. 1t seems that the spiritual
life of the world is decadent and that
men are but beasts.
"A few days ago I met In New York
an American war correspondent who
had just returned from Germany and
j asked him if the bubble of civiliza-
ton had indeed collapsed And he
said No There is in Germany itself
a protest against this war, and there
IS throughout all the world the awak-
