LUTHERANS HEAR OF ATHEIST DANGER Church Warned Against “Hysterical Action” by Dr. Knuble. By the Associated Press. COLUMBUS, Ohlo, October 15—/ Dangers to the church from * l(hei.sflc communism,” Dr. F. H. Knuble told delegates to the biennial convention of the United Lutheran Church today, “are real -* * * but they do not call for hysterlcll action or high-pressure methods.” The 560 delegates were expected to | re-elect Dr. Knuble of New York as head of the church. He has directed its activities since its formation in | 1018, “We are told that there are trea erous forces at work through the pr over the radlo, in the forum, and even back of the sacred pulpit, spread= ing propaganda-to destroy the faith born with the smile of a Babe in Bethlehem,” Dr. Knuble added in his biennial report. “In & serious time like the present to be drawn from the confessional, re- demptive heart of the gospel, by any merely attractive and novel doctrine and educational ideas and jargon. Bometimes our people, even occasion- ally our leaders, seem to be tempted by such bright lights.” A delegation of German leaders of | the Lutheran World Convention, head- ed by the convention president, Bishop August Marahrens, received greeting ©f the delegates this morning.

Recommendations for temperance, community selection of motion pic- tures and campaigns against war came before the convention today as it opened business sessions. The Church Committee on Moral and Social Welfare made its report to the 560 lay and clerical delegates for consideration during the eight-day convention ending next Wednesday. Simultaneously the church’s Amer- ican Missions Board, characterizing care parties and dances as “spiritually { destructive methods of raising money,” banned financial support for churches engaging in them. Dr. H. W. A. Hanson of Gettys- burg, Pa., president of the board, said States and Canada were affected. He added that the order extended specifically to chances, prize contests and bazaars. The Committee on Moral and So- | cial Welfare said in its recommenda- tions that “having due regard for the growing menace of the liquor traf- fic, we request the Executive Board to direct the proper agencies of the THE EVENING STAR, CONTRACTS SPED 10 REPLAGE LIFTS Inspectors Report Unsafe Conditions in Some Fed- eral Buildings.
