THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. ¢, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 19%8. DRV IS FORESEE TOHALTARVANENT Divergent Views on War Debts Also Likely to Confront‘ Next Administration. BY FREDERIC WILLIAM WILE. | Armistice day, 1928, is destined, by | certain significant indications, to mark | the beginning of a concerted, continuous anve 1o effect sweeping changes in the American policy on armaments and European war debts. The speeches on those subjects made November 11, re- spectively, by President Coolidge and distinguished church leaders plainly show what is in prospect. There are in particular unmistakable signs that the same influential church sponsorship which brought about prohibition is now to be put behind the fight against na- | tional defense of the sort President Coolidge—and President-elect Hoover— bozn advocate. ‘While Mr. Coolidge last Sunday was appealing for a vigorous naval defense policy and a program of European debt collection, some of the country’s lead- | ing clergymen were clamoring for dia- metrically opposite policies. Dr. Henry Sloane Coffin, president of the Union ‘Theological Seminary, assailed as “hy- pocrisy” the pending 15-cruiser project. Bishop Ernest M. Stires of the Episco- pal diocese of Long Island, urged can- cellation of the war debts and accused America of “driving a hard bargain with a wounded comrade.” Assails Naval Expansion. Right Rev. George Ashton Oldham, |~ Bishop of Albany, preaching in the Ca- thedral of St. John the Divine at New York, assailed naval expansion as “in- evitably provocative.” At the Park Ave- nue Baptist Church, in New York, Rev. Harry Emerson Fosdick demanded that the Senate ratify the Kellogg peace pact before it considers the 15-cruiser bill. Dr. Fosdick called for a Nation-wide citizens’ movement to bring correspond- ing pressure to bear on the Senate. These clerical fulminations against the administration's naval plans wers apparently all forthcoming in connec tion with the Armistice day demo strations fathered by the Federal Cou: cil of the Churches of Christ in Amer- ica. It was this organizatiion which demonstration, as announced, was to advocate early Senate ratification of the Kellogg anti-war pact. But the coun- cil's “call to 150,000 churches” frankly pointed out that the anti-war pact is only the first trench the churches have to take in the course of a campaign which embraces a host of other ob- Jectives. Treaty Declared Not a Panacea. “In stressing support for the pact of Paris,” the Federal Council's “call declares, “let Christian leaders make it clear that this treaty is not a panacea. It will avail little as a mere form of words. It will, however, mean a new era in human history if we and all peoples take it seriously. With the prospect of war out of the picture, all the great world problems will stand on an, entirely new footing—disarmament, security, interallied debts, treaty revi- sions, monopolistic control of raw mate- rials and of markets. Let us recognize the greatness of the opportunity now ours and dedicate ourselves with intel- ligence and devotion on this armistice anniversary to the abolishing of war. A churchman, whose official position obviously makes it impossible to per- mit quotation of his name, made the following statement to this correspond- ent on Armistice day: “The American people do not faintly realize what is going on in the church world at this moment with regard to national defense. Unless my informa- tion is wholly wrong—and I do not think it is—President Hoover's admin- istration will not be very old before it will witness as powerful a drive against.| naval and military legislation and in favor of a ‘liberal’ policy toward debtor Europe as the United States witnessed in the years preceding prohibition. The fact is that, having accomplished the enactment of the eighteenth amend- ment, certain militant church leaders are now in quest of another ‘living issue.’ They have hit upon disarma- ment. Some of them call it ‘inter- national peace and good Wwill’ but disarmament is their real objective.” (Copyright, 1928.) PARENTS’ HOME DUTY TO PUPILS STRESSED Educator Urges Them Not to Leave Entire Responsibility to Teacher. The responsibility of parents doing their part to train children in the home instead of depending too much on school teachers to train them was stressed by Selden Carlyle Adams, assistant di- rector of the division of publications, National Education Association, before the leadership training conference of the District Congress of Parents and Teachers in the Burlington Hotel today. Choosing as his subject, “The Par- ent-Teacher Movement’s Place Edu- cation,” Mr. Adams declared: “When the home turned over to the trained teacher the major tasks of education it did not assume the right to relinquish its own responsibility in the matter. “Children,” the speaker continued, “live 24 hours a day and not more than six or seven of those hours are spent in the school. The danger hours are those which come after th 00l has PRINTED Tomorrow and Thursday— Miss A.

The tragedies of childhood and youth sel- dom take place in the classroom,” he | said. “Education is meeting the challenge of the changing world by providing a | curriculum which concerns itself with making children physically and mental- ly sound, pteparing them for worthy home membership and providing them with an appreciation of the spirit of learning.” !
