World Strife Calls
For Christian Unity,
Bishop Freeman Says
Episcopal Diocese
Convention Opens
Business Sessions

The need OF Christian unity in q
strife-torn world was emphasized by
the Right Rev. James E. Freeman,
Bishop Of Washington, in an ad-
dress to the convention Of the
Episcopal diocese Of Washington last
night. Delegates today began busi-
ness sessions in st. Thomas Church,
Eighteenth and Church streets NV.
The program opened at 8 IN. with
q corporate communion, which was
followed by fellowship breakfast"
In the parish hall.
Bishop Freeman called the first
business session to order shortly
after 10 o'clock. He presided from q
wheel chair because Of q foot injury
he suffered recently.
Reports Of Oficers.
Reports Of diocesan officers and
committee chairmen occupied the
morning session. Treasurer H. l..
Rust, jr., and Dean Noble c. Powell
the latter reporting for the National
Cathedral Foundation, were among
those heard.
A trained paid worker for the de-
partment Of religious education was
voted by the convention, and q tenn
porary committee formulating pre-
liminary plans for entertaining the
provincial synod here next year was
made permanent.
At noon Bishop Freeman called
the delegates to their feet for q few
moments Of prayer.
Speaking in the Church Of the
Epiphany, 1917 q street NV, last
night, Bishop Freeman pointed out
perils confronting the Christian
church, declaring, "Ir some places,
its very existence is threatened and
in other places it is wholly inter-
dicted, its ministers DETAINED, perse-
cuted and martyred. Under such
conditions, the question of corporate
unity becomes a vital and urgent
one"
Moral Issues Outweigh Neutrality.
Moral courage is even greater
than physical courage" the bishop
asserted, "and the armor of right
eousness stronger and more i'm
pregnable than the boastings of ar
rogant and seIfzconfident dictators.
Neutrality, eolUAess and cautious,

Judge Greene Lectures
On Christian Science

Judge Samuel w. Greene OF Chi
cago last night lecturcd In First
Church Of Christ, Scientist, on the
subject, Christian Science: The Re-
ligion Of Authority" He spoke in
part as follows:
"The history Of humanity indi-
Gates that there are periods Of ac-
tivity and striving In human con-
sciousness as well as stretches Of
time when there seems to be little
or no activity or progress In human
thinking.
"The present age is giving birth
to much striving and much activity
in various parts Of the earth where
human beings are reaching out, de-
string to possess freedom, happi-
ness. more Of good. ight-thinking
people are grateful for this activity
Of thought, because there Is good to
be had and enjoyed by all; and
activity Of thought may open the
door for more human beings to q
vision Of the spiritual and perfect.
Christian Science affords any
man the opportunity. and provides
him with the method Of thinking,
whereby he may rise above the dis
appointing experiences Of material
living and enter into the promised
land of spiritual attainments and
find his freedom and dominion. even
the kingdom Of heaven within.
"In all the teaching Of the Master
there Is hope and confidence, with
never q note of doubt or fear. The
common affairs Of men will be on q
better basis when more of them,
through spiritual attainment and
understanding, begin with conf
dence to claim for themselves
health, life, success in business and
happy relations with their fellow
beings.
THAT all of this and more may
be accomplished through an abso-
lutte reliance upon God is the teach
ing Of Christian Science, and the
experience Of many Christian
Scientists"

The phrasing Of men In public

Of great religious principles to

81" American ideals, expressed
in terms Of the betterment of human

Referring to the plight of youth
the bishop remarked, II will not
believe that youth has abandoned
religion. It is waiting t see its elders
give q finer demonstration of what
they hold Of religious conviction, q
