"Other conferences in the past hav
ing for their purpose limitation of ar
maments have failed because they
lacked the true spirit of and desire
for lasting peace. They resulted
only in pOStpOnements. But the
Washington conference approached
It's tasks with a determination to
make progress in response to the
power Ct worldwide public senti-
ment. And for one, l believe that
that sentiment was so deeply con-
ceived in the hearts and minds of men
and women that it amounted to a
spiritual passion and was a result
largely of earnest. heartfelt prayer.
Peace on earth is the Divine purpose,
and is the unconscious prayer of
