An appeal for this country to
"escheW entangling alliances with

of Raleigh, N. C.
Addressing 600 delegates from the
United States, Alaska, Canada. Cuba,

Hafey urged them to expose the true
conditions Of workers and small prop
erty owners under the collectivist ma
tionS."
National chaplain of the organiza-
ton, the bishop asserted the citizenry
OF America through the Government
must sooner or later choose "to enmesh
itself in the present turmoil and
threatening war in Europe or follow
the advice of George Washington to
eschew all such entangling alliances"
10 IAN in our adherence to our first
Presidents admonition," he said, may
not only entrap us in war in which
we have had no part in the making,
but it might easily lead to a most
unnatural alliance fighting side by side
with Red Russia or a totalitarian
regime such as dominates Germany
today"
