in the future.
Lutheran leaders Of America be-
lieve this condition to be direct and
providential call to their church to
take the lead in, the spiritual recon
struction Of Europe on the basis Of
spiritual democracy. 1t is challenge
which it cannot ignore.
They point to the fact that the
American Lutheran church is the only
Lutheran church which has developed
a strong, vigorous democratic church
life. They consider it to be signifi-
cant that until recently divided, con-
sidered to be provincial, when the war
Emergency came, the Lutherans of
America stood together, raised a mil
lion and a half in four weeks and fol-
lowed their 100000 soldier sons over
seas with the gospel wherever duty
called them. With this. national unity
established, with the proof Of remark
able resources at hand, not before rea-
lized, they feel the American Luth-
eran church is ready to meet the
world call and spend itself to save the
Lutheran church of Europe from dis
indignation.
Prominent public men have COM
mented upon the similarity Of service
which the United States and the
American Lutheran church are called
upon to perform for Europe. The one
is called upon to exemplify the ideas
of civic democracy, the other the
ideals Of spiritual democracy. The
one is striving to save Europe from
social disintegration, the other from
spiritual. The governor of Arizona,
in recent communication to the Ma
tional Lutheran Council, stated that
if the council succeeds only in part in
carrying out it's program it will have
done a great and good work for civil
lization. Similar statements have
been made by the governor of New
! York, E. A. Smith, Vice President
Marshal and other men of prominence
in this country.
| At present the National Lutheran
Council is carrying on an extended
campaign of education to bring home
the need of the Lutheran constitu-
ency throughout the land. A series
of sixty mass-meetings are arranged
touching every Lutheran center, from
Boston to Seattle and San Francisco
and from Duluth to Savannah anc
New Orleans. Leading Lutherans
have bee nenlisted to serve in teams
of two and three to address these
meetings. Such mass-meeting wa:
held in Fargo, Feb. 9Th, the speakers
being DR.. C. j. Smith Of New Yorl
and Rev. J. A. O. Stub, the executive
secretary of the Council.
Immediately after this educationa
campaign comes the campaign TO:
funds, which continues from Feb. II
to 26. Every state is being organized
under the direction Of state chair
man. Mr.. J. H. Dahl, of Fargo, i
chairman for North Dakota. Mr.. N
