Worth Of All Nations
Stressed in Appeal
by Church Council
No Faith Con Stand
Apart From Human
Need, Statement Says
By the Associated Press.

BY me Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Feb. l3.-The Inter
national Council of Religious Edu-
cation yesterday adopted a pro-
nouncement calling for more effec-
tive Christian teaching TO insure
postwar recognition of "the infinite
worth of persons of whatever race or
nation"
Christian teaching in our homes,
churches and colleges must go for
ward more effectively than ever be-
fore TO prevent the defeat of the
very aims for which the war is being
waged," it said.
The formal statement of the coun-
ell, which officials said represents 40
denominations or 80 per cent of the
Protestant churches in North Amer
lea, urged Christian education lead
ers to use every opportunity-now
and after the war-"to provide the
religious and ethical undergirding
for a world order in which there is
recognition of the fatherhood of
God, the brotherhood of man and
the infinite worth of persons of
whatever race or nation
Gov. Harold E. Stassen of Mime
sofa, the councils newly elected
president, served as one of 25 men,
bers of committee which drafted
the pronouncement after considering
reports from eight council commits
sions which studied the needs of
Christian education in wartime.
mo church." the pronouncement
said in part, seeking to influence
life can stand apart from human
need which is so poignantly real in
time OF war. Whatever the church
may feel called upon by it's own in
ner compulsion to do in support of
its nation at war, 1t does not relin-
quish its belief in the universal fell
lowship OF believers and it's deter
mination to maintain the bonds of
good will and love with Christian
brethren in all lands"
Prof. Paul H. Vieth of Yale Uni
versitys divinity school, who pre-
sented the report, said that the "ef-
forts of the churches and Christian
education forces must be doubled
and trebled in order to reach chill
dren, young people and adults wher-
ever the war may take them and in
whatever new and difficult task may
confront them"

ed vice president to serve as acting
president after Gov. Stassen enters

Schroeder Sees Gain
OF State Capitalism
Speaker Says Movement
Is Feeding on War
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
CENTRALIA, Ill, Feb. 13.-Wern-
er w. Schroeder, Republican ma.
tional committeeman for Illinois
declared last night that move
ment to substitute state capitalism
for private capitalism has been gain
ing momentum in this country land
is now feeding upon the circum-
stances of war"
There has been growing
tendency for the Federal Govern
ment to step in. whether necessary
or not" he said in a speech at a
Lincoln Day banquet sponsored by
the Marion County Republican Gen.
tral Committee.
'If state autocracy and state
capitalism place their withering
hand upon American life, the four
freedoms and all other freedoms will
perish from the face of the earth
The fundamental defect" Of state
capitalism, he said, lis that politics
and Government are controlled by
the same group as industry and
business"
Then there Will be no one group
correcting or restraining the other
The only limit will be the ambition
greed and cupidity of the politicians
themselves"
This system. he said. also de
stroys the freedom of labor"
The third result OF state capi-
talism is a horde Of bungling bu-
reaucrats whose incompetency
would make impossible the main
tenance of the American standard
Of living" he added. The first year
of the war has shown us bureauc-
racy run wild.
The fourth result Of state capt.
talism is its blighting effect on the
spirit of enterprise"
