Religious
Termed Vital

AN ARBOR. Mich, July 81
R)-Christianity has done much
to benefit world conditions, says
DR.. Kenneth Latourette of Yale
university, but its contribution
toward preventing wars is hamp-
cred by the divergence of relig-
ious beliefs.
Cooperation between the vari-
Gus religions can be only super
fetal. he told the University OF
Michigan's conference on post
war problems last night, because
of the basic CULTS between them.
DR.. Latourette, a professor OF
oriental history at Yale, said no
religion is organized so that il
can cooperate with others or
mobilize followers OF the other
faiths for such cooperation.
Even If the various religious
systems could cooperate, he
added, the leaders who control
them would find il impossible to
work together because each OF
them claims to have the final
truth.
Cooperation among Christians
is growing. however. he said,
adding that mankind owes a
tremendous debt to this world
wide Christianity for the les
sening of illiteracy and disease

forts to lessen the horrors OF

Gen. EISENHOWER is indeed
- great commander and in sense
to which his own graciousness and

He has deep affection for the
men who bore the brunt of the battle,
respect for them and profound awe
of the spirit which attended them in
their ordeal of fire and suffering,
pain and death.
He wants America to KNOW

His greatest feeling of personal
pride and honor is in being selected

people to receive the honor intended
for them and "to serve as your agent

Gen. Eisenhower, in addition to
being great commander, is a proud

men on the battlefelds, and humbled
by them.

Detroit evening times., 1945-06-25

A MERICA has given grand
home coming to very great
military commander and very Won
derfui man.
Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower has
amply and unquestionably proved
himself to be master of military
strategy and science, superb or
ganizer of the men and machines of
modern warfare.
But he has also proved himself
the possessor of other and better and
rarer human qualities.
LIS first words on the occasion of
his home coming, when personal
homage and praise were pressed
upon him, we're:
eve allUays got Whot We needed
when we sent for ii. For that bring
you the thanks of three million
fighting men.
When he went before the Con-
gress of the United States to make
his report on the victory in Europe,
he called himself what he earnestly
and sincerely believes himself to be
the REPRESENTATIVE of those
three million American fighting men.
Not to him but to THEM, he told
Congress, is due Americas tribute
for military victory"
He did not speak to Congress first
Of victories, but of the unsung and
unknown and war-weary American
boys "who earned your commenda-
tion and should properly be here to
receive it"
Let history tell the story of the
CAMPAIGNS of the European con-
fict, said Gen. Eisenhower.
What he was bursting with was
the warm and brave human story of
his boys.
