and spread of better human relations This time worn
question was brought again to the front last week wnen
President Truman ched churchmen for their failure 70 lay
aside petty and insignificant differences" to unite them
selves against the hosts of rregon and the danger OF
world catastrophe" He spoke before the Washington

God who makes Himself known to us in scripture who
makes Himself known to in Christ cannot be barganed
h cannot be mobzed or used for human purposes:
He cen only be trusted and loved and served
The Episcopal Church leader denounced communism as

that such proposed action impossible there are eergymen
