Broader Outlook Will Reconcile Fundamentalist and Modernist By REV, JAMES D. BUHRER, Washington. c 0 NTS0VERS X i* ,a sure evidence of progress, and where there it no controversy there it no progress. There may be such a thing as «. happy medium somewhere between the radical funda mentalist and. the extreme modernist A person may be a mod ernist regarding certain viewpoint* and a fundamentalist in other be liefs A man u a fundamentalist when ha regards the value of past ex perience, but no history is infallible. There is no original copy of the Scriptures; the meaning* ef words, constantly change, and different translation! ef the Bible art mad* According to the interpretation of the previous traiisHtien fey the near translators. The future religion will cowish is living according to the rules of Christ regardless of church, denomination or doctrine I am a fundamentalist because of my regard for the historic paat, of the great progress slowly mads. I honor the great leaders. Things are not true because MW. J don’t want to repeat the follies of the paat. 1 want to transmit the gains of the part.

Sixteen thousand written enactments of diversified subject matter exist ilreadj in the United States for the regulation of the aver Sge manjg Ia,.-s conduct. which confer favor* always at the ere expense of the general public. Such lew* -give birth to groups, and encourage them to claim special consideration on tit* ground that R haa been extended to others. The "bloc” system ie partly responsible for the almost total lack of public leaden of nationalInfluemw.Tfcegroup conflicts at Washington are proof that leadership in a large pert is not national in character. The country needs and moat have a reinstatement of political phil osophy. Public opinion ia divided between Jefferson and Hamilton. The first challenged the fight- of original capital to control the government. The second championed the cause ef the thrifty, the prosperous and sue cessful. Undoubt idly radical changes have occurred in the social system of the Uniter! States, resulting in confused conceptions of private responsibility and of public duty.
