Uj part o f him who for any fancy whatever decides that he will not fight in defense o f his Country or defend the very freedom which has been bought by the blood o f those countless others who fought and died for these liberties which we enjoy. Indeed, the very attitude on the part o f the World Council o f Churches had been expressed previously by a number o f clergymen in the National Council o f Churches. One o f the more articulate advo- cates o f this ideology is Dr. William Sloan Coffin, Chaplain at Yale University. He and others like him have encouraged young men to burn their draft cards and in other ways defy the constituted authority o f the United States. These men are assuming authority to determine what laws they will obey or disobey. They claim that their decisions are to be placed above the law o f the land.

Not only is the World Council and its counterpart, the Na tional Council o f Churches, advocating defiance o f the law in regard to active participation in our military services, but also these Councils are advocating co-operation with Communists. In an editorial appearing in March, 1968 the Chicago Tribune termed Eugene Carson Blake, the Executive Secretary o f the World Council o f Churches and former stated clerk o f the United Presbyterian Church, U.S.A., "a preposterous apologist for Com munism.” Whether Dr. Blake would admit this or not, his actions both as stated clerk o f the great Presbyterian church and now Cont. on Page 46 4 to A 1 < i * ► U
