3 at Madras Conference

Dr. Buckner Writes of

Festival at Cairo.

Dr., George W. Buckner, World Call editor; Dr. Cyrus M. Yocum, Disciples of Christ foreign missions executive secretary, and Mrs. Yocum, all of Indianapolis, are three of the 50 North American delegates to the International Missionary Council meetifig at Madras, India, opening this week. - At the conference, for the first time the “old churches of the new world and the new churches of the cld world” are meeting together to seek a larger evangelism for the Christian Church. Dr. John R. Mott is presiding at the sessions. Letters to Mrs. Buékner here give interesting episodes of the journey, beginning when the three sailed from Quebec. Dr. Buckner writes of a priest and seven nuns who boarded the ship at Marseilles 'vho had come from Germany and witnessed the religious persecution there: of attending mass on ship; of his decision not to go to Palestine upon advice from Canon Bridgeman of the Marseilles Episcopal Cathecral and of visiting Cairo instead.

are i ) Self-Discipline Asked for Radio

“No other than self-censorship of radio is compatible with a real democracy.” the Rev. Henfy E. Chace, Washington Street Presbyterian Church pastor and Church Federation radio chairman, said apropos

the new “ethics” committee being formed by the National Association of Broadcasters. “The Indianapolis Church Federation warmly commends the present intention of the radio industry to discipline itself by revising and enforcing its code of ethics: such procedure is democracy in action,” he said. The pastor expressed the opinion that the democratic principle rests squarely on the real spiritual freedom of a people and that the freedom of the radio from governmental censorship is just as essential to the preservation of democracy as is that of the press. He recalled that “the censorship of enlightened public opinion was effective at the time of the Mae West burlesque of the Garden of Eden and recently when the words “flash” and bulletin” were misused in the War of the Worlds broadcast.” . Sister Rose Angela of St. John’s Academy who made a Legion of Decency survey of parochial school children found their taste in movies radio programs. She stressed the need for guidance among all radio listeners. The Federal Council of Churches research report on radio calls for members recruited from educational, religious, medical, commercial and labor groups.

By WILLIAM E. GILROY, D. D. Editor of Advance I HAVE formerly remarked upon the great timeliness of recent lessons that come with particular appropriateness and challenge into the area of present world conditions and events, Could there be a more important lesson at the present moment than this concerning Christ’s new com=mandment of love? The civilized world stands appalled at the recent: revelations of enmity and hate. We have seen the destruction of boundaries and the downfall of nations} because peoples of different race and language refused to live together with tolerant recognition of one another and of their mutual interests. We have seen a whole people persecuted, oppressed, robbed, and harried in incredible ways by one of the largest nations of Europe; and we have seen others in the same country similarly persecuted because of their religion. In another part of the world an ancient and peaceable people has had its life uprooted and its country ravaged by a ruthlessly militaristic nation, concerning whom it may be said that they have only too

sadly followed the example set them by western nations at their worst. Here in our own land we realized the menace to democracy that is present in sectional jealousies and in religious, social, and racial bigotry. Surely there is no lesson that we need to learn so much as the lesson of love, and the fact that there can be no hope for happiness for humanity except where loving relationships are established among men. : : ” ” » ESUS made the message of love distinctive in that He applied it to every phase and relationship of life. He did not set it up as the bond between men in an ideal society, saying, “A day will come when all men will love one another, and when we shall have a society where that is possible.” He brought His message of love into the world of actual humanity with all its varying interests and with all its conflicting jealousies and hatreds. And He said that the only way of bettering this world was where men learned, even in these very conditions, to love their enemies.

It is natural and easy to love one’s friends. Only an abnormal man fails to feel affection for those of his own kin and of his own tribe. But Jesus saw in such love, pleasant as it’ might be, no real gain or overcoming. “If ye love them that love you, what reward have ye?” It when one’s love reaches out more widely and deeply to the &vercoming of hate and selfishness that love really lifts men and society to a higher level. :

This is where the emphasis must

"| be—not only upon love, nor upon

love only to one’s neighbors, but upon love to one’s enemies, We must view even the most evil of men and the worst of oppressors and perse-

Interracial Rally Is Set Tomorrow

cutors of today with hope and with a yearning for human redemption. It is easy, in the presence of the horrible atrocities that are being perpetrated, to vent our feelings in bitter denunciation. In fact, it is almost impossible not to do so. But our effectiveness in overcoming these things will depend upon what we are doing in a positive way to counteract. the wrong. We may express a great deal of sympathy for victims at a distance, but are we willing to receive and help these victims in our own land? We may condemn with bitterness dictators

bin other countries, but are we heed-

less of the interferences with liberty that are increasingly evident in our own land? : Thus, in this world, we must preach and live the doctrine of the good neighbor, but we must do even more. We must seek to build up a neighborly world where enemies, through love, may become neighbors.

Chanukah Celebrated

Jewish Feast of Lights to Recall Persecutions.

Indianapolis Jews have planned many religious and social events as part of the world-wide celebration of the eight-day “Feast of Lights,” or Chanukah, which began with the kindling of the first candle, yesterday at sundown. Chanukah commemorates the Maccabean rededication of the temple in 165 B. C. after the Jewish victory over the Syrian dictator, Antiochus Epiphanes, who had demanded that all his subjects become Greek and worship Greek Gods. 4 A representative of the Central Conference of American Rabbis and the Union of American Hebrew Congregations expressed this hope: “To those who suffer, vicariously as well as-actually, from religious intolerance, the lights will again forecast that struggle for freedom against great obstacles which can result in victory.” : ” 2 ” The congregational Chanukah dinner will be held in the Beth-El Temple vestry rooms Sunday evening at 6 o'clock. Cantor Myro Glass and the choir will conduct the candle-lighting service, seasonal songs will be sung and a one-act play presented by Sol Blumenthal, Bernard Bloom, Jaeger and Constance Present. The “Chanukah Man” will distribute gifts according to custom. * 8 = Original poems by Bernard Berger will be read at the Religious School Chanukah entertainment in the Indianapolis Hebrew Congregation Temple tomorrow at 3 p. m. An original play directed by Misses Estelle Levin and Nancy Lichtenberg and written by Rabbi Maurice Goldblatt will be presented. There will be the traditional candle lighting ceremony written and directed by Mrs. Mildred Levey, preceding the social hour.
