As a result OF the declaration OF
a state OF war between the United
States and Germany, there has come
70 pass a remarkable reversal OF
opinion on the part OF many men
CONSPICUOUS in the religious life OF
the country There is now left
scarcely a single outstanding figure
IN the American churches who pro
claims the pacihst views.
One Of the most serious aspects
OF the situation prior 10 the out
break OF hostilities was the belli
gerent pacihsm Of a group OF men
and women acting in the name OF
the churches. They contended that
the pacifst position is the only
Christian position; and thereby they
troubled many minds. Even con-
gress was made hesitsnt by their
propaganda The great mass OF peo-
pie want 10 do what Is right, fol-
lowing the dictates OF religion. II
the teachings of Christianity clearly
'nterdicted war. then millions OF
Americans would refuse 10 enter the
war. This general unsettement
caused by the pacinst propaganda
ran more widely and deeply than the
general public knew. Incidentally,
Il was a remarkable demonstration
Of the power OF concerted action by
a few devoted men: for. all in all,
the number OF American pacihsts
conducting the campaign was small.
although they were supported by
large funds.
Once war was declared. the re
hgious leaders who are pacifsts
straightway became silent. OF else
insisted that the question was no
longer debatable since the country
had acted.
In various ways. interested per
cons have bad glimpses Of the tire
mendors mental and spiritual strug-
gles which some neh have gone
thru with since the declaration Of
war. These were the loyal souls
eager only to know the truth and
pursue II. For the sake Of their con.
v'ctions, they would suffer any
shame or personal Inconvenience
There never has been any question
Of their intellectual integrity Not
the least sublime phase OF the war
has been the struggle within the
breasts of men eager to follow the
light OF truth.
II would be indicate 20 mention
names. but close observers have
seen thar. one after another, prsc-
tically all of the conspicuous church

tion have come out In unequivocal
