OBEDIENCE IS URGED -i Ijuv Is Test of Oivlfizatton Says Noon-Day Speaker. “Obedience to law is the test of civilization,” said Bishop Thomas F. Gailor, president of the National Council of the Episcopal Church, In his Lenten, sermon at Christ Church, today at noon. “History shows clearly that whenever men have tried to live without law, they have lost their freedom,” he said. “Venice was a great republic, but It lost Its liberty when the people refused to obey the law and France was in chaos until Napolean molded It Into an absolute empire. So law Is the safeguard of liberty and obedience and a civilized people Is a people that submits to law.
