The Methodists are not in Europe o proselyte, said the appeal. “Our twenty-two conferences and issions, our more than 750 spirit- hal shepherds offer millions a way o Christ. They are crushed under he intolerable burdens of the Vorld war. Multitudes are broken, mpoverished, hopeless. Yet theirs s a continent ruling two-thirds of he human life. “Mightier battles than Verdun re being fought today between orces far more subtle, powerful nd significant for humanity than ontended in the World wer. We houred our wealth into Europe vithout measure when the strug. ble was material and now with- old it when the struggle is moral nd spiritual and far more critical or civilization, “At this great day, when our op- ortunity is so irresistible and ommanding, to have Methodism eem to fail and falter at a time khen America is passing through he period of her supreme pros- erity — this is a blow, not only o Methodism, but to the whole hristian movement, the serious- ess of which can not be meas- red,” said the appeal.
