Bitterness and hatreds should be kept out of political campaigns cam-paigns was the plea made by Arthur V. Watkins, candidate for the Republician Nomination for United States Senator in an address to the Pilgrim group of the Community Church Wednesday Wed-nesday evening. Mr. Watkins also urged that the spirit of Christ should guide those trying to bring about peace between nations as well as in industrial groups in our own country, Mr. Watkins-said in part: Less Hatreds . . "What is needed in our political poli-tical discussions of today is more of the spirit of Christ and less recriminations and bitterness, bitter-ness, v Surely the world has had its fill of bitterness and hatreds in the bloody war years. "Churches, as such, cannot ake part in political campaigns but tolerance and the spirit of doing unto others as one would like to be done ,by, which churches teach, can very well be made the basis for all pub lic discussions and should guide hore who are making decisions. That would not be mixing church and state. ' It would only be putting into practice the les son of Christianity. ' ' .-"If that spirit were the guid ing power in the current warfare war-fare between capital and labor, in the United , Nations Conferences Confer-ences and in the meetings of the foreign secretaries of the big four, what a contrast there would be compared with the greed and bickering, the accusations accusa-tions and fanning of hatreds that are now being manifested. Treat Labor Fairly Tor ' instance jt , should not be necessary for laboring men to have to resort to strikes to get what they are in reason and justice entitled to. It should not be necessary for them to en danger the health, the safety and the very lives of millions of innocent citizens in the waging of an industrial war. " If both sides were guided bv the spirit of Christ controversies would soon be settled. In truth they would never arise, because the spirit of Christ does not give rise to ' controversy, it would abolish greed which is the underlying un-derlying cause for wars of all kinds and if Chnsi weie at the peace table and His spirit should prevail, the millions 01 armed men could lay down their arms and return to their families. fam-ilies. Atomic secrets could be revealed and its immense power be put to use of mankind. "Woodrow Wilson's warning in his last great appeal resued just before his death, to his countrymen under the title of 'The Road Away From Revolution", Revo-lution", should h i made re. quired reading for all leaders and negotiators in fact for all people everywhere. In his warning he said: 'The sum of the whole matter is this, that our civilization cannot survive ma- -terially unless it be redeemed spiritually. It can be 6aved only by becoming permeated w the spirit of Christ and being made free and happy by the practices which spring out of that spirit. Only thus can discontent dis-content be driven out and all the shades lifted from the road ahead.' Here is the final challenge chal-lenge to our churches, to our political organizations, and to our capitalists to everyone1 who fears God or loves his country. coun-try. Shall we not all earnestly co-operate to bring in the new day?" ,t Industrial War Discussed s Discussing the industrial war and labor Mr. Watkijis said, "that trikes should only be permitted per-mitted as a last resort and after all other methods failed. There should be an impartial industrial indus-trial disputes court established with power to investigate and make findings binding on both sides. Negotiations should be compulsory before strikes or lockouts are permittees. And in all industries or serv ices having to do with the abso lute necessities of life, there should be compulsory arbitra tion. The nation must have power to preserve the lives of its citizens. ' Neither industrialists industrial-ists nor labor leaders should be above the law. They must either settle disputes themselves, promptly, or have the properly constituted representatives of the people do it for them. Industrial In-dustrial warfare as it is today must end. It is intolerable. To last settlements must be just; and they will be if they are oermented with the spirit of Christ." - v Council |
