PEACE PRAVERS T0 GRDLE ELOBE Protestants to Join Cath- olics in Holy Week Supplications. A call to all Protestants to-join in & “world concert of prayers” for peace, beginning in Holy week, hns been broadcest by the Federal Council of Churches of Christ in America, the Universal Christian Council and the World Alliance for International Friendship through the churches. Since Pope Pius XI, independently has issued a message to Roman Catho- lics, the movement is expected to em- brace almost the whole of Christendom. Describing the present as “an ominous hour when the spectre of war again haunts the world,” the appeal urges the churches to pray for peace at every public service “as long as the threat of war- remains.” According to the announcement, the “world con- cert of prayer” may continue for sev- eral months. If it does, a series of concrete suggestions for prayer will be issued at the beginning of each month, Christ’s Sacrifice Recalled. ‘The message recalls the suffering of Christ and states that “the world for which He died seems ready to crucify Him afresh.” The churches are told that only the spiritual power of united prayer “is adequate to stay the rising current of selfish nationalism and bring peace to a disordered world.” Virtually all the non-Roman churches are included in the ap-| peal. Among the larger bodies out- | side of this country to which the call | has been sent are the Evangelical Pree Church Council of Great Britain, | the Church of England, the French Protestant Federation, the German Evangelical Church and the Confes- | sional Synod of Germany, the Synod | of the Waldesian Churches of Italy, the National Christian Council of Japan and the National Christian Council of China. Through member- #hip in the Universal Christian Coun- cil, the Eastern Orthodox Churches also are included in the invitation. Forgiveness Besought. “Let us unitedly seek forgiveness,” said the message, “for the self-seeking national ambitions, the economic com- petition and the injustices that have been breeding the germs of war; for our proneness to suspicion of other peoples, to fear and ill-will; for our | lack of trust in the redeeming power | of love and our delusion that we can | have security through reliance on great armaments and military force; | for our blindness to the truth of our | Lord’s words that ‘they that take the | sword shall perish by the sword’; and | for our apathy toward the construc- | tive agencies of international co- | operation through which a new world | order might be achieved.” “With hearts thus purified and with & heightened sense of the sinfulness of war,” continued the message, “let | us join in intercession; “That all of Christ’s people in every country may have a fresh vision of God's purpose of righteousness and reconciliation and peace for the world; | Asks “Courageous” Resistance. | “That there may be courageous de- | termination among all peoples to re- | sist the ominous drift toward war; “That all may be willing to pay the price of peace in intelligent efforts | to create a public opinion that will | demand the settlement of interma- | tional disputes by peaceful means; “That those who for the sake of | selfish profit would foment hostility | among the peoples and see the world { drenched in blood may be restrained; and “That to all who hold positions of responsibility in Government. the guidance of God may be given to formulate policies that shall make for peace.” | Christian people are urged to sup- | plement the prayers in churches with daily supplications in their homes. The call is signed by Ivan Lee| Holt, president of the Federal Coun- cil; S. Parks Cadman, chairman of the American section of the Universal Christian Council, and William P:| Merrill, president of the World Alliance. BOARD WILL HEAR PARK POLICE ROW Superintendent Recommends Body l Be Convened to Try Case. Sergt. L. G. Purtlebaugh and Officer W. H. Brown of the United States | Park Police, who figured in a row re- cently when the private objected to having his detail changed from .one side of the Tidal Basin to the other during cherry blossom season, prob- ably will tell their story before the Police Trial Board set up by the Na- tional Park Service. The park superintendent, C. Mar- shall Finnan, who has charge of the Park Police, said yesterday he was recommending to Arno B. Cammerer, director of the National Park Service, that the board be convened to hear the case. Sergt.
