LUTHERAN CHURCH DIVIDED ON WAR; DEBATEEXPECTED One Faction Contends Christians May Engage in ‘Just’ Armed Strife, By United Press CHICAGO, Oct. 22. —Debate on question of war and peace among delegates of the United Lutheran Church, in convention here, was forecast today with submission of four memorials dealing with the matter. Debate on the open floor is scheduled for next Tuesday.

The memorials are from the Pittsburgh synod, New York and New England synod and the minlsteriurn of Pennsylvania. Rev. F. H. Kuebel. president of the United Lutheran Church In America, in a sermon, touched on the subject as follows: “We hear much of pacificism these days and the church Is asked to support it. If the church in to preach to nations In their antagonism, it must cry tor repentance os to that national pride, selfishness and selfrighteousness which nations cover under false patriotism.’’ President Coolidge extended greetings to the convention todav. His telegram follows, in part: “As I study the three great movements of humanity into the American colonies, the Puritans into New England, the Lutherans and Quakers into Pennsylvania and the Cavaliers Into Virginia and examine the history of their amalgamation In blood and unity in spirit. I realize this amalgamation and union form one of the foundations of America s greatness. Immorality, the movies, divorce, lawlessness and other questions of public welfare will be discussed by the convention.
