National Lawlessness An Issue For Whole World New Outline of U. S. Policy Barely Precedes Hitler Speech WASHINGTON, Sept. 11.—Secre tary Hull declared in a letter made public Saturday night that the issue of lawlessness versus fair play con fronted the whole world, and that no action could avoid a part in the re sponsibility of determining which should prevail. Although not mentioning the crisis between Germany and Czechoslovakia, he said: “Events in other parts of the world have emphasized recently the extent to which some nations have wavered from the orderly and friend ly relations which should prevail be tween neighbors.” Publication of the secretary of state’s remarks, in a letter of accept-1 ance to Peru’s invitation to attend the eighth Pan-American Conference} at Lima on December 9, preceded by only two days Adalf Hitler’s long awaited foreign affairs speech at Nurnburg, Germany. Hears Kennedy’s Report The letter of acceptance was hand ed to the press shortly after Am i ; can Ambassador Kennedy had cabled Hull the report of his conversations with Lord Halifax in London Satur day morning. The letter was writ ten September 2 in response to Peru’s invitation, extended August 2. “TJie nations of the world are fac ed,” Hull wrote, “with the issue of determining whether relations shall be characterized by international an archy and lawlessless or by principles of fair play, justice and order under law. wo nation and no government can avoid the issue: Neither can any nation avoid participation, willing or not, in the responsibility of de tarminiTkg whidn course of action shall prevail.” “ . . the grave problems confront ing the world today afford the Amer , icaan republics, united by a common ideal, an opportunity to set an ex ample to»the world through the crea tion of new bonds of solidarity and friendship.” Continuing he said: “The American nations have made an important contribution to the cause of world peace by the elabora tion of an inter-American society based upon respect for the independ ance, sovereignty, and political equality oi nations . . Peaceful Neighborliness “The program for the forthcoming conference offers abundant opportu nity for the American nations to con sidei further means of guaranteeing peaceful continental neighborly life, and of solving the many existing im portant questions of a political, juri dical, and economic character.” Secretary Hull indicated he would appoint the American delegates later. •He personally attended the last Pan- American Conference at Contevideo, Uruguay, in 1933. Prior to publication of his letter of acceptance, Hull had refused earl ier Saturday to add anything to Pres ident Roosevelt’s remarks at Hyde Park Friday. The President had told reporters that interpretations that the United States was morally link ed with European nations in a “stop Hitler” movement were about 100 pel cent wrong. They Vvant a Line-Up Commenting upon the President’s remarks, five peace organizations is sued a statement which said in part:} ’“President Roosevelts statement to a press conference that this coun try is’ not aligned with any foreign government is a wise attempt on the pa it of the President of this country and of the leader oi tne party in power to reassure the American peo ple as to the foreign policy of the administration. But if the people are to trust their President’s sincerity,! they must not be misled by statements j of officials that do not square with i the President’s words and with their | own convictions. The administration must bring its recalcitrant officials into line.” The organizations are the Fellow ship of Reconciliation, the Keep Am erica Out of War Congress, the na tional Council for the Prevention of war, the Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom, and World Peaceways. ■« ROYAL Theater Thursday and Friday “Lord Jeff” W’ith Freddie Bartholomew and Mickey Rooney.

I Dean oi The Moody Biblf Institute , of Chicago. © Western Newspaper Union. Lesson for September 18 JONATHAN: COURAGEOUS FRIENDSHIP LESSON TEXT—I Samuel 20:4-17. GOLDEN TEXT—A friend loveth at aU times.—Proverbs 17:17. PRIMARY TOPIC—Noble Prince Jona than. , .. JUNIOR TOPIC—Noble Prince Jonathan. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC— The Adventure of Friendship. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC— The Cost of Being a Friend. Without question, the most pre cious possession any man or woman has (apart from his fellowship with God if he is a Christian, and the love of his own family) is friend ship. It is the flower that blooms by the side of the rugged pathway of life. Like many flowers, some friendships need to be cultivated and encouraged. It has been said that the love of a woman for another woman is a beautiful thing, the' love of a man for a woman an even more devoted and precious thing, but that the bond of love between man and man surpasses all in its strength and glery. Some might question such a statement, and yet it is true that between man and man there is the possibility of the highest type of friendship. David and Jonathan stand at the head of an inspiring list of men who loved each other with their whole souls. The lesson for today calls for a careful reading of the incidents in the life of Jonathan and David re corded in I Samuel, chapters 14, 18, 19. and 20, as well as the first chap ter of II Samuel. It is a story which will richly reward a careful read ing. Considering the printed portion in the light of this background we note six things that characterized this great friendship. I. Cultivated (v. 4). Friendships must be “kept in re pair.” Foolish and almost wicked is that man who by boorishly of fending his fellowmen, or by neglecting the thoughtful words and acts that cultivate friendship, drives men away from him. “He that hath friends must show himself friendly” (Prov. 18:24). Consider the admonition of our Lord in Luke 16:8, 9, where he urges the righteous use of even our worldly possessions to cultivate eternal friendships. Read what Jonathan did in I Sam. 18:3-5, only one of his many loving and thoughtful acts. 11. Courteous (v. 8). David asked thst Jonathan deal kindly with him, and the entire story reveals that he did just that, always. More friendships are wrecked on the rocks of little dis courtesies than in almost any other way. We live in an age which affects an outward veneer of culture but which is at heart often thoughtless and un kind. Let Christian men and women be courteous. They should be as followers of the gentle Jesus, and it will bring them countless friends. 111. Candid (v. 9). Friendships that last must be built on absolute candor, not the kind that delights in telling an un pleasant truth, but one which speaks the truth in love. Jonathan told David the truth. IV. Courageous (vv. 12, 13). Jonathan was such a faithful son that when the time of parting came he stayed with his wicked father rather than go with David, whom he loved. But he was true to David even though he knew it would incur the wrath of his father if that friend ship became known. Things that cost us nothing are usually “worth it.” Real friend ship calls for sacrifice, standing by in the night hours, sharing burdens, loyal even though others may con demn us for it. V. Covenant Keeping (w. 16, 17). Covenants entered into by solemn treaties in our time are soon dis carded as “scraps of paper.” People make promises to one another that they never intend to fulfill. Jonathan and David made a covenant anfi kept it. True friends do not violate their loving agreements. This matter of trickery and false hood in life and business is one that deeply troubles the writer of these notes. He sees unmistakable evi dence that this perverse spirit has come into the precincts of the church itself. We should have a re vival of honesty in office, home, state, and church.
