MUST TAKE HAND IN WAR"
Professor Barton Tells Why He Resigned
From Friends Meeting.

Philadelphia April 6-Professor c Gorge
A. Barton OF Bryn Mawr, speaking at the
luncheon gwen II the Bellevue-Stratford
yesterday IN honor Of Very Rev. Sir
George Adam Smith. announced these
reasons for rcsigning his membership in
the Society OF Friends;
II have resigned not because l did
not appreciate the great things for which
the Society Of Friends have stood, but
in reality because | appreciated them
too much to remain 3 member now.
'frhe great central fact and testimony
OF George Fox with reference to public
affairs was that a Christian should live
in the spirit that IS opposed to war. But
Whist that great seer was not able TO an
ticipate was that an age of the world
should come like that IN which we are
living, in which II has become evident
thar no man can really live in the spirit
that is opposed to war who will not take
q hand IN the war to end war
ut Is because Of the dawning upon
NV mind and conscious of that fact that I
have severed my connection with the de-
nomination TO which have so long be
longed
1T IS because 1t seems 10 me that the
League TO Enforce Peace is the instrument
for the accomplishment Of AL that is ideal
that | would like TO do anything in my
power to persuade men 70 give it their
sopport."

Leading Berlin Paper Takes
Gloomy View of Drive
Toward Amiens-

Washington, April 6.-An intercepted
radio of Nauen. Germany, according to
an official dispatch from France indicates
that the Germans are asserting that the
correspondents of the French and English
papers on the west front are making
themselves ridiculous in telling OF the
enormous losses the German troops suffer
ed during the offensive.
The dispatch saws that what Is ridiCu-
lous Is the obstinscy OF the Germans IN
refusing 10 recognize dlsagrecabie
truth. and recItcs revised figures obtained
from the reports of prisoners to support
previous estimates OF the great German
losses.
An official dispatch from Switzerland
SAYS the German press of all shades OF
opinion betrays the concern and dis
Illusion of the public beyond the Rhine
upon the subject of the great offensive.
The Frankfurter Zeitung Is quoted as
saving contact has been preserved between
the French and English, thanks TO the
intervention Of Foch's arnlv, and 1t
appears doubtful whether the hope of
an eventful occupation of AmIens may
be still achieved.
This Is quoted from the Lsokal-An-
xelger:

Of the present battle will be. We are full
Of hope. but it must not be forgotten that
our adverSarles. with an Invlnclble courage
