of the rugged individualism which
was SO highly priced during the
Century Of Progress. Against the
background of their day, the re-
formers were perhaps as signifl-
can't as the prophets But it
happens that we have many of
the details of the daily life of
these men and we know their
weaknesses as we'll as their strong
points as human beings. After
studying them in an unprecedented
way, no one can deny their
tremendous significance. The
whole world, including the
Catholic church, is different be-
cause of these men.
1t takes long while to get out
from under the shadow of a tre-
mendous emotional conflict fol-
lowing suffering and the shedding
OF blood. Once prejudices are
born, people tend to cherish them
long after the need for them has
passed away. AS an illustration,
one of my friends left his home in
southern Virginia this spring to
come to Washington. A few days
ago his father, a Virginia gentle
man of the old school, came to
Washington and asked his son for
a judgment as to the most beau
tiful piece of architecture around
washington. His son replied, 1.-The
Lincoln Memorial" The father
meditated over this for a full day
and then said to the sons wife,
There are too many Yankees
around Washington, my dear, you
must see that our boy gets safely
back home without too many
northern IDEAS"
The causes which led to the
Civil war were superficial phe-
nomena compared to those which
produced the Reformation. The
warfare and the shedding of blood
which grew out of the Reforma-
ton ideas lasted for nearly two
hundred years. 1t is not surpris-
ing, therefore, that this tremend-
Gus conflict should cast a shadow
which even today obscures the vi
sion Of both Protestants and
Catholics as they attempt to
assess the true character and con-
tribution of the reforrners.

The stage is being set for a So
cial battle astonishingly similar
to that which ragged in Judah and
Israel from the time Of Solomon
until Judah went into captivity.
It must be remembered that when
the prophets were actually living,
they had no thought that their
sayings would eventually become
a part of a revered Bible. They
were flesh-and- blood men con-
cerned with the affairs of the
times. I trust we shall never
have to have a prophet like Eli
sha, who stirred up John to bloody
revolution. And in this connec-
ton, it is interesting to note that
Jehu formed a compact with the
Rechabites, the communists of
that day, who in their hatred of
commercial civilization, had re-
turned to the simple life and had
vowed under no circumstances. to
own land.
Yes, I trust that we shall not
need Elishas and Jehus and Re-
chabites to cure the evils Of this
civilization by causing the blood
TO flow in the streets. But we will
think more fervently and vigor-
ously than most of our leaders
have hitherto. We need thinking
equal in vigor to that of the
prophets if we are to define with
sufficient clearneSs the issues on
which decisions are necessary if
this nation is not to wallow help
less in world affairs like a ship
without a rudder. The great
lesson of the prophets. it seems
to me, is their intensity of con-
viction that there is something
behind the material which is SUI
premely worthwhile, which guides
us in our handling of material
things.
THE reformers of the sixteenth
y century are astonishingly like
the prophets who lived twenty
five hundred years earlier. They
did not say, Thus sayeth the
Lord" but they spoke with equal
conviction, and it is evident from
their actions that such men as
John Calvin and John Knox felt
just as deeply. and were prepared
to suffer just as much, for their
convictions as Amos, Isaiah or
jeremiah. Like their earlier proto-
types, they were attacking a pow
erful, intrenched priesthood. I'm
doubtedly. many of the evils and
blessings of our present-day
civilization trace to these men of
iron who determined to seek God
in,their own way, no matter how
much trouble they caused easy
going contemporaries.
In these men we find the origin

back. Goering stood his ground for
