NATION CANNOT
 LIVE BY ITSELF
Pastor Declares America Must Join Allies to Avoid
 International Clash

Warming both against isolation in national affairs as well as against narrow denominationalism in conduct of the affairs of the church, Rev. B. G. Hodge, associate pastor of the First Methodist church, Sunday morn ing during his sermon pointedly de- ciared it to be the duty of the United States to join with other nations in order to avoid the international crash which otherwise Is bound to come.
 Pointing out that the only other nations outside of the League of Ma tions are "bolshevik Russia, power thirsty Germany, and interruptions Turkey" he declared that if present efforts of statesmen to bring order out of chaos fail. the responsibility will largely fall on the United States, if a smash-up results.
 The text of the sermon was taken from the fifth chapter of Isaiah. warning Israel that other nations will take up the task in which it had mon on "Will America Stand the Test?" compared the situation of the United States today with that of Israel Of that period among other na- tions.
 After pointing out that the Jews believed themselves Gods specially favored people and believed them selves safe from Assyrian aggression, as well as other enemies on land or sea, until Hike a clap out of a clear sky came the announcement through Gods prophets that the flag which floated over their capital would be the flag of all nations.
 ITO my mind there Is no greater sin either for nation or a denomi- nation than to be exclusive" said pr. Hodge in part "We cannot live unto ourselves in this day and time as d nation. The world has by reason of science and great inventions become one great neighborhood. We cannot go off by ourselves and play in our own back yard.
 This nation is not part of the League of Nations, and we are not represented at Genoa. and we have made a separate treaty with Germany. The other day the United States pre- scented bill to the allies for $241.- 000,000 for the cost of our army on the Rhine. and Lloyd George said in effect: You have seen fit not to be- come one of the League of Nations; not to take part in our work of re- construction of the world. It looks to me as if America must go to Berlin to get this money
 "I care not what your individual opinions are as to the advisability of the League of Nations. sooner or later we will be forced to join some form of league. The greatest manace to the world today Is the com bination recently formed between Germany and bolshevik Russia. From a mere point of selfishness, we must go into

some league. But we must also do 1t from a higher viewpoint, and that Is that we are our brothers keepers.
 But I also have no patience with the denominationat narrowness which claims to be the only and true inter- preter of Gods message. Your Chris tianity is not worth the name of Christian unless it sees the image of God in the other man. Your Chris tianity is vastly inferior to that of the other man if you fail to realize that all other men also have A share in it."

GLOOM PREVAILS AT GENOA FARLEY Coming Week May See Smash of the International
 Conference
Bx AssncIated Press

Genoa. May 7.-Gloom prevails at Genoa, for this week, say many of the statesmen, may witness the smash of the international conference on which the whole of Europe has fixed its hopes.
 Only Russia's acceptance of the powers memorandum can save the conference from disaster is reluctant 1y admitted by many of the delegates. Complete acceptance is regarded as improbable and even if the soviet delegates surprised everybody by re- turning an affirmative answer, Bel gfum and France seem determined to have their rider added to the prop erty clause more rigid in character than In clause of the memorandum.
 This course by Belgium and France. if persisted in. would make an agreement with Russia increas- ingly difficult because the soviet delegates are expected to cling tena- ciously to their system of nationaliza- ton.
 Tho next few days therefore, may witness a favorable turn in the con- ference which has already produced so many crises that people would not be surprised if the latest also was overcome. The disunion among the powers apparent here today, while immediately due to the differences over the method of treating foreign ers' property which the soviet has sequestrated, is largely the outcome of the Russo-German treaty, which France fears may mean a new and dangerous military combination and to the scramble for concessions, chief iy oil, in Russia, which has awakened mutual suspicious on the part of the powers.
 Conclude Separate Treaties
 Already the delegates are openly talking of the possibility of. conclud- ing separate treaties with Russia, which it is alleged put Russia into a favorable position such as occu- pied by China in the past, since by playing one power against another she can obtain more favorable con ditions than by negotiating with them collectively.
 In case the conference fails, among other suggestions circulating tonight Is one that it should be adjourned after appointing an international commission to study the Russian question with the understanding that the proposed solution be submitted to another conference within the fix ed period of three or six months. lt must also be understood that the international commission plan for an international loan to Russia guaran- teed by the governments.
 Premier Lloyd George tonight ap- peared rather pessimistic. in con irast to his usual buoyant mood Nevertheless he has not lost hope, and is holding fast to the conviction that the conference can be made a success. He gave another proof of his youthful vigor this afternoon by descending afoot from the summit of Righi mountain, near Genoa. with Mrs. Child, wife of the American am- tassador. MT. Lloyd George and his wife and daughter had been the guests of the Ambassador and Mrs. Child at luncheon on top of the noun tain.
