Moral Re-Armament
Meanwhile, Howard had been assigned by Lord Beaverbrook to investigate the 1930s English evangelical movement of the American religious leader Frank Buchman, the Oxford Group, which was later renamed Moral Re-Armament. Howard interviewed Buchman and eventually left the "Daily Express" and joined the inner circle of Moral Re-Armament. In 1941, he published the book "Innocent Men" in which he took a different view of the politicians lambasted in "Guilty Men" only a year earlier. He still sharply questioned the relationship between press and government in wartime Britain but also expressed his views about the role that Moral Re-Armament could play.
