AGAINST SELFISH NATIONALISM r HE suggestion that the United States should take the Ar ifl menian mandate will find especial favor with church people who sympathize with Armenia because of the years of religious persecution it has suffered at the hands of the Turks. They would like to see Armenia have a chance. Church people above all others will oppose a policy of selfish Americanism. In a statement elicited by numerous inquiries from Euro pean correspondents, the Rev. Charles S. MacFarland, general secretary of the Federal Council of the Churches of Christ in America, defends his fellow countrymen from the inferences drawn in many quarters that the American people have lain down on their task of international leadership in world recon struction. "I have no hesitancy In saying.'' Dr. Macfarland states, "that not only the more thoughtful and Informed elements of the American people, but the American people as a whole, deeply desire that our nation should take its eVare of International responsibility, and that In this matter the people are in Fymiiathy with the ideals set before the peace conference by President Wilson. "This Is entirely regardless of the question as o whether or not they per sonally approve President Wilson's course and the methods which he pursues. 'J am equally unhesitating in saying that neither the action of the United Slates senate nor the attitude of the president expresses the mind and will of our people. "If one desires to estimate properly the American spirit and attitude, he would do best to go back and view it as it existed in 1918. The purpose of our people, with regard to justice and righteousness in the world has not changed, nor are they desirous that we should selfishly shirk our responsibility any more than we did then. "The heart of the American people is still with the people of Europe in their problems and in their needs. Undoubtedly there were actions by the peace Council, allotments of territory and matters of that kind, with which our peo ple are not in sympathy. They believe that some, and perhaps many of the decisions of the peace conference will need to be reconsidered, revised, end in ome cases, reversed. They believe, however, that these questions could hardly be adequately settled in bo short a time and that they could be best settled by long and, patient conference on th part of the Council of the League of Nations. "-Meanwhile, after a little time, our people will find themselves as they did in 1S17 and IMS. "Our peojne as a whole are absolutely against the principle of national selfishness, whether in America or in European nations. They believe that th interests of one are involved in the interest of all." .While Dr. Mcarland does not wholly approve of the presi dent's course it is apparent that his sympathies are with Wilson rather than with the treaty foes in the senate or elsewhere. It would be in line with good Americanism and in line with the Wilson policies to accept the Armenian mandate. It is timely to note however that the president would probably not have1 his way even should he wish to accept the mandate. It would require congressional approval and the majority of con gressmen are said to be opposed. There is nothing sounder than the policy of giving home products first preference; when you buy Pendleton or Oregon made goods you patronize yourself. The Knox resolution sounds like we were sueing Germany for peace. Beg pardon, professor, did you say $5 for wheat?

Were the churches merely the em bodiment of religious opinion, or the monuments of some great event of the dead past, they would not be worth sustaining. The spiritual functioning church Is a center of moral power, a fountain of restraining, inspiring and converting power.
