MOOD OF NATIONS
CHRISTIANS IS REVEALED

The mood of the nations Chris
tians is revealed not only in these
ways but through the kind Of
basic social rethinking which
found most dramatic expression
in the now famous Malvern Con-
ference. At this conference the
Industrial Christian Fellowship,
under the Craftsmanship OF the
Archbishop Of York. dealt fear
lessly with the life Of the church
and the order Of society. anslyzing
the diseased elements OF civiliza-
ton. the place Of the church in
dealing with economies, the role Of
Christians in public service. prop
erty rights, production for use
rather than for profit alone, public
ownership, the monetary system,
industrial management, and the
place Of religion in public educa-
ton. No one can read the clear
recommendations of Malvern with
out realizing that something rather
basic is taking place in the think
ing of Anglican Christianity.
Another deeper trend is revealed
in the thought Of prominent
ehurchnen about the waging OF
the war. Just as the churches won
their argument with the govern
ment for the considerate treat
ment of conscientious directors.
with notable results throughout
the land 50 they have maintained
freedom to criticize and have free

government in this regard

some quarters for methods against
Germany similar TO those prac-
ticed ny the Germans against
England in the wanton wholesale
destruction Of residential areas far
from military detectives, one Brit
ish church paper states: IF the
measures adopted 20 beyond the
strictist military necessity and in
flict wanton and needless suffer
ing, and still more IL public opinion
demands retaliation's sake. human
nature will have taken the fatal
downward turn. We shall our
selves have become barbarians and
it will make little difference to
civilization who wins the war"

Of the mighty struggle now in pro-

mood Of the nation is the fact that

DIFFICULTIES OF WAR
MET BY DETERMINATION

Difficulties Of transport, the
black-out. shifts Of population,
financial worries, the recruiting Of
clergymen as chaplsins with the
forces, and other problems created
by the war have been met with in
flexible determination and high
courage. The government has as
sured congregations whose build
ings have gone that they will be
ultimately rebuilt by government.
And thi. has lifted a certain burden
of concern from a parish, as would
be natural
The shifts Of population due to
destruction of homes and the wide
spread use OF public air raid
shelters have brought into exis-
tence tube clergymen" and tube
, parishes" whose attempts To aid
their changing constituency Of
war-victims have involved the use
Of methods never heretofore en-
ployed in religious work in con-
ventionsl London. A recent con-
ference was reported of more than
fifty tube evsngelists" who COM
pared notes on their experiences
and prepared plans for recruiting
groups Of lay men and women to
aid in expanding the work. Some
of the prayers which have been
used in these tube services are
eloquent evidence of quality of
religious devotion which is unex-
pected-almost unprecedented.

SURPRISING THINGS HAVE
HAPPENED, RESULT OF WAR

But it is not only in shelters
under ground that surprising
things have happened The for
nation Of the Sword of the Spirit"
movement on wide scale has
been marked ny the notable COM
ing together Of Anglicans, Catho-
lies and Protestants. The begin
nings Of this process seem to have
been mainly associated with at
tempts TO formulate carefully the
objectives of British Christians in
the war and their hopes for the
world order that is to be after 1t is
over.
Meetings, small and large. all
over the nation engaged in this
process Of study and discussion
with notable outcome. The ten
point program for peace-five
points set forth by the Pope and
five added by the leaders OF Brit
ish Christianity had wide at
tention. The churchmen have
urged government to take il into
account in announcing any further
declarations Of war aims: and in
addition il has been sent formally

AMERICAN CHURCHNEN

During the war, the use Of the
radio in religious interests has
continued. Remarkable PROCESS
has been made in keeping the
spirit Of universally in worship.
Germans have been chosen to lead

a widespread effort 10 distinguish
between hostility to Nazism and
hatred Of everything German.
The addresses which have been
given from time 10 time by dis

are impressive in their avoidance of
bitterness and nationalism.
To those few American church
men who have gone to England
as representatives of united Chris
tianity from this side Of the At

warm and sincere welcome. Every

MASS. GOVERNOR
 IS THREATENED
SaltOnstall Ordered to Set Aside Week for German
 War Aid

Boston, March l8.-(UP)-Govor- nor Leverett Saltonstall reserved comment today on reported tele- phone threats that the Massachu- sets state house would be picketed unless he set aside Q week to raise funds for German war relief.
 Lt.-Gov. Horace T. Cahill re- vealed last night that the governor had been subject to "abuse and even threats" recently because he set aside this week as British Aid Week" on request of the British American ambulance corps.
 Cahill told the 2O4th anniversary dinner of the Charitable Irish so- ciety that some of the objectors demanded that the governor prove his good will" by setting aside a German Aid Week..
 Most of the threats" Cahill said, were telephoned and all were "in the same vein." The callers, he said recounted how they and their families voted for Gov. Saltonstall in 1888 and 1940, but said they planned to oppose him hereafter because of his American att titude' in favoring one belligerent.
 It was understood that the gov- , ernor would not complain to police unless @ threat of violence were made. ..
 The meeting was marked by a clash between U. s. Senators Jo- seph c. O'Mahoney, D., Wyo., and John A. Danaher. R., Conn.,, over American foreign policy and Dana- hers contention that the American governmental system is "repre- sentative republic" rather than a democracy.
