EPISCOPAL DIOGESE OPENS CONVENTION Bishofi Freeman Calls on All to Combat Anti-Christian Lk Move, Having heard a stirring call to com- bat the influence of organized anti- Christian movements, sounded Rev. ‘Washington, Epiphany, Episcopal in, services were held at 8 o'clock at Rock Creek Church. he business sessions will last through morning, followed by a breakfast at the The convention will meet again tomorrow, at 9 am. and will close with a final session in’ the after- parish house. noon. ‘The appointment of committees and reading of committee reports featured the meeting this morning. Rev. H. A. Griffith Is Elected. Presentation of committee repo: ‘was followed by the election of the dio- and assistant secre- taries, and the appointment of church cesan secretary James E. Freeman, Bishop of at the Church of the the annual convention of the diocese of Washington was convened in business session this morn- of small consequence. It is an enemy to be reckoned with and strenuously resist- ed. It cannot be resisted by a passive church nor by a church whose ranks are by controversies and dissension. It calls for men of the finest intelligence and deepest consecration in its chosen ministry and of the most virile and ac- tively alert character in its laity. This 8 no time for internal dissension, or the emphasis of a party ot partisan spirit. A fresh allegiance to the eternal standards of our faith and a vigorous defense of them is the clear and defi- nite call of the hour.” Urging adhtrence to doctrinal teach- ings and religion as exemplified by Christ, and criticizing departures from them, Bishop Freeman asserted: “The church cannot accommodate itself to every whim and caprice of modern, social, political-and industrial life. The old affirmations of the gospel 185t | have lost Meithér their power nor their night at the opening session by Right i = appeal, but they demand the pro- nounced expression of a church that is militantly and aggressively alert. The very situation that now confronts us is one that should compel us to a more intelligent and consistent expression of the truth we hold and lend freshened impulse to bring the ministry of the church to bear upon the most vital problems of modern life. “It is an unchallenged fact that, in part at least, the present violent course of the Russian government with re- spect to the church grows out of long- standing abuses and misinterpretations of the mind of Jesus. The church can- not be holy on Sunday and worldly on Monday. It cannot patronize one group while it is coldly indifferent to another. It cannot preach justice for a preferred class while it ignores its responsibility to the less fortunate. THE bears upon the habits and ways of‘ cconduct. Doctrinal preaching has largely given place to so-called ‘topical preaching,’ and those who still heed the church’s call in too many instances purvey a pabulum that contributes lit- tle to the stabilizing and enrichment of moral character.” Reviewing the diocesan situation, Bishop Freeman said greater advance- ments than in previous years Liad been made along many lines. Confirmations in 1929 numbeved 1,281, against 1,076 for a like period of 1928. This, he ex- plained, witnesses to a deepening of spiritual iife ia the diocese und to a more painstaking care on the part of the parish clergy. He told of the College of Preachers being provided a building and a perma- nent endowment by gifts or $1,500,000 from Alexander Smith Cochran of ‘Yonke: N. Y. Bishop Freeman also expressed hope that both the north and south transepts of Washington Cath dral would be compicted without i terruption. A fund of approximately $1,000,000 is needed for this purpose. Among other institutions reported as | having enjoyed develcpment during the year were the Children’s Home, which has secured a 915-acre site in Chevy Chase on which three buildings are now being erected, and the Home for the Aged, on Wisconsin avenue, now plaming for a new building which w double the capacity of its present quar- tel EVENING LOANS on Improved D.

Referring to those forces which he indicated desire to destroy religion and Christian thinking. Bishop Freeman in | portions of his address said: “An organized movement is on foot, carefully planned, cunningly devised and world-wide in its propaganda to un- settle Christis faith and to set at| naught the value of Christian institu. tions. A ‘Society of the Godless’ is bfyl no means confined to the restriced area of Russia. Religion as an ‘oplate for the people’ is by no means an affirma- tlon in a foreign tongue. Attack on Institutions. “It is reasonable and conservative to say that no such determined and ag- gressive frontal attack has been made | upon Christian institutions and Chris- | tian ideals as is now being vl(omunlyi pressed through well conceived and weil organized agencies. It holds up to ridi- | cule and scorn the most cherished of | our institutions and inhibits the train- { ing of the young in Christian virtues | and ethics. It is more ambitious in its | designs than any like movement that | has gone before. It is bold and malev- olent and his behind it the fanatical determination of the inflamed propa- gandist. | “Whether its seat of authority is Moscow, New York City or Ghicago is | All Spring SUITS formerly $40 & $45 <ol All Spring SUITS formerly $50, $55 & $60 53’3.75 All Spring SUITS formerly $65 & $70 $4,g.75 All Spring SUITS formerly $75, $85 & $95 $59'.75 You’ll Find Real Summer Comfort in’ Walk-Over’s Cleta Tie Fashioned in combina- tion of Dark Biege and Beige Clair on the favor last . . .
