SWAY Of
i STEARNS
Effect Of Church and Advice OF
Best Friend Cause Leaders
to Worry.
By WILLIAM HARD.

Shivers ran down the spines Of
Che ''irreconcilables" and of the
high-tariff Republicans today as
they reflected upon the church
affiliations shown by President
Coolidge over Sunday and upon the
continued prominence of the Pres
ident's affectionate old friend,
Frank Stearns, of Boston.
!, The t'irreconcilables" regard
the First Congregational Church
here, which has now become the
Presidential church, as being
one of the towns great centers
of t'internationalistic'' tendencies.
In general, the ''irreconcilables"
regard most Of the churches of
America as having been dragged"
by their pastors into an Excess
sively "pro-European" or "pro-
Asiatic" or "pro-world' position.
In particular, they think that the
First Congregational Church of
Washington shows these teEden-
cies conspicuously.
Sentiments Alarm.
They even find some occasion for
alarm in the sentiments expressed
by the distinguished pastor of this
church in one of his sermons this
Sunday when, in the course of
eulogizing the virtues of the late
President Harding, he departed into
international affairs long enough to
say:
THE whole world now is larger
and drawn close together. America s
task is the hardest in the world;
for, as the richest and most re.
sourceful nation after the world
war, she is confronted with the task
Of saving her own soul. ." If
our dead President could speak,
surely he would bid America Go
Forward"
The '1rreconcilables" see abso-
lutely no reason for going for
ward" into a world drawn "closer
together" and they think that the
way for America to save her
soul" is to button 1t up and pre-
vent any Of these European pur-
loiners from getting at it. They
tremble to think of President
Coolidge sitting Sunday after Sun.
day. under the ministrations of a
spiritual adviser who will shake the
word Of God at him in the direction
OF saving the American soul abroad.
Similarly the high tariff Repub-
3icans are having a bad half hour
as they gradually realize that Mr..
Frank Stearns, who enjoys and who
has deserved the special love and
trust Of President Coolidge, is a de.
~partment store owner and, there
fore, directly or indirectly an i'm.
porter.
Importers and the Tariff.
In the highly nervous moments
of these days Of sudden alarms and
eurmises the high tariff Repub.
licans remember clearly that the i'm
porting interests of Boston gave
them a most distressing and EN-.
barrassing time during the passage
last year Of the present tariff law.
There was an hour then when even
Senator Lodge himself seemed to
.waver in the faith and seemed 20
be distinctly devoid of orthodox

Peace and War Ideas

international News Service.

LONDON, Jan. 1.-The world
swung into the New Year today with
the mightiest and most spectacular
conflict under way between forces of
war and peace in the history of
civilization.
Although described merely as "a
precautionary measure" Great Brit
ain is making warlike preparations
in the Near East. A mighty fleet has
been concentrated in Turkish waters,
and more ships have been ordered
into the Mediterranean. This war
move has resulted from the stubborn
attitude of the Turks in the Lausanne
peace conference.
On the other hand, President Hard.
Ing and his advisers at Washington
are exploring every avenue in an
effort to assist Europe back to Pc.
litical tranquility.
Representatives of the allies will
meet in Paris tomorrow for q mo-
mentous conference upon German
separations. If it Is impossible to
reach q mutually satisfactory agree
ment Great Britain may withdraw
her objections to French occupation
OF the Ruhr basin. This would pre-.
cipttate q grave crisis. Germans de-
clare 1t would lead to civil war in
Germany, and perhaps a conflict in
volving outside countries.
Peace efforts are under way in war
torn Ireland, but they have been
meeting with severe obstacles.
Russia and Turkey have entered
into an alliance, the exact nature of
which Is unknown. Russia is solidIv
supporting the Turks in their recall
citrant stand in the Near East peace
| conference, and there have been
strong limitations that Russia would
give Renal military aid IL I Iere is a
