is an open secret that the collapse of
the I~nterchurch World movement was
due to the dominance of d~enominational
interests. ,
1T became an intensely d~enminational

he continued. Let us not again repeat
that mistake.
The man I don't know Is the man
an likely to suspect and dislike. The
different sections of the same. denomina,
ton in different parts of the world. and
even in our own country, know little
about each other. The great war might
have been averted if the forces Of Chris

play. Nothing is so distressing and
hopeless as the personal and national
hatrpds l have seen in Europe"
He closed his address with a plea for
a Christian fellowship comprising all de-
nominations. which would assist in soly-
ing the worlds present problems.
