Call America needs a spiritual rebirth, Secretary of Commerce Daniel C. Roper told the second annual mass meeting arranged by the Committee on Religious Life in the Nation's Capital in Constitution Hall last evening. “World history and particularly events of recent times,” the cabinet member told a large audience repre- senting many different religious and ethical bodies, “have taught us that we cannot look solely to legislative | efforts and panaceas to correct those fundamental mass problems that arise in time of great moral and spiritual MEtropolitan 9900 to order a telephone or to arrange for directory advertising & mcs&nq Invi’tafions l"d Announcements o ar new styles of Ev\flvavmg executed in true Brewood manner are moderate enough in cost to meet present-day demands ... ‘BreEW@®D Engravers and Fine Printers 1217 G St. N.W.

In a democracy moral ills cannot be corrected through legisla- tion that is not supported by the peo- ple. These abuses do not lend them- selves to regulation or legislation ex- Rather, the correction function from that center.” Stressing the demand for individual reformation, Mr. Roper continued: that civilization is today in danger of being destroyed on the rocks of fear, greed, jealousy and uncontrolled | selfishness. To safeguard civilization | against these destructive forces, we must revitalize religious forces in our Fundamental Belief in God. America, the Secretary argued, was moral and spiritual discernment and . Pundamental belief in the Federal Constitution and every | one of the charters of the original| thirteen Colonies has written across | it this faith as an expression of the people.” But Mr. Roper warned against “misguided clerical militancy” which, he insisted, “accentuates crises that lead to civil strife and bloodshed. Both the church and political agencies of the people suffer if the church enters actively into those fields of economic and social endeavor specifically re- served to political agencies . . . when the pulpit is transformed into a po- litical forum, religion is unjustly sub- jected to the influence of temporal factors.” Rev. Dr. Joseph R. Sizoo, former Presbyterian Church and now pastor of the Collegiate Church of St Nicholas, New York, pled for a similar solution to the problems of the age. “One hundred years ago,” he declared, “such a gathering as this would never have been thought of. Men in that day did not meet one another in the name of religion— but they shot one another in the name of religion. A century ago, if s gathering like this had been planned, it would have ended in dis- aster and the speakers would have landed in jail. Our presence here to- night bears witness to our apprecia- tion of one another. We are coming to see that there are many roads which leads to the mountain top. *.* * “But there is & second and more It is a fact that without religion no nation is safe and no civilization can survive. We are here to say to one another that without spiritual ap- preciations democarcy eanpot endure. | Freedom of religion does not mean | freedom from religion and liberty of conscience does mot mean liberty from conscience. Democracy is | form of government so high and so exalted that it requires a high level of character and s high standard of morality to maintain. Without a arriving on fime. B & O courte the way.

Rabbi Morris 8. Lazaron, minister of the Baltimore Hebrew Congrega- tion, appealed for the “dynamic of the living God” as opposed to the “dynamic of chauvinistic national- | ism, the dynamic of the new Caesars | with their blood cult, hate cult, state | cult and war cult.” “Man needs some overwhelming motive that will reach ‘down into the very depths of his being,” he argued, “and will lift him by its transcendent power and, point- ing out to him his divine potentiali- ties, will give him the courage and the strength to conquer. We have tried law and failed. We have tried force and failed. We have never yielded to the spirit of a vital faith. Many Jews have lost God and many Christians have lost Jesus. We must find them again. Let us pool our resources, organize our energy and pit the power of our living faith against the rising forces which would overwhelm all freedom and destroy that democ- racy without which we, too, are lost.” The fundamentals of religion also was the theme of Rev. Father John K. Cartwright, pastor of the Church of the Immaculate Conception, who said: “A democracy rests on ideals that must be deeply embedded and enshrined in the hearts of millions of individuals who make the state. In other forms of government, ideals may be imposed at the will of a tyrannous minority, but in a democracy they must live and grow within the hearts of the people. Yet ideals have no sub- sistence in and of themselves. They must spring from the inspiration and subsist by the blessing of Almighty pastor of the New York Avenue |. God. * * * In this conviction we are met here tonight. Our three faiths differ in very much that is vital and important, but on this important thing we all agree—that the tradition of a pure and spiritual faith, which arose in Palestine and which has been the mainspring of the world’s eivili- zation these 2,000 years, must still be at the heart of civilization in America s in all the world.” Right Rev. James E. Freeman, Bishop of Washington, presented the four principal speakers. The spon- sors of the meeting, he explained, “represent the determination of the churches of every name to prosecute with fixity of purpose and definiteness of aim everything that concerns the moral and spiritual well-being of the people of Washington.” Plans for further endeavor were outlined by Rev. Dr. Anson Phelps Stokes, former secretary of Yale Uni- now canon Tresidentiary at ‘Washington Cathedral The musical portions of the pro- gram were in charge of the Army Band, led by Lieut. Carl Hubner; the National Capital Choir, directed by Dr. Albert W. Harned; the Choristers of Immaculate Conception School, &‘; Speakers of many faiths gathered at Constitution Hall last night to agree that tolerance and understanding are prime necessities of their calling and of the world. Shown here (left to right) are Rabbi Morris S. Lazaron, Baltimore Hebrew Congregation; Secretary of Commerce Roper, Right Rev. James E. Freeman, Bishop of Washington, and Rev.
