ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCHES VOLUME XXVI NORTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION WOULD STOP WAR TACTICS Delegates to Meet Not in Favor of Compulsory Military Training, in the Schools and Colleges. LAUSANNE TREATY ALSO IS OPPOSED Some Fight Developed Ov er the Military Training Clause Which Was in the Resolution Adopted. Washington, May 29.—OW—The Northern Baptist convention went on word here today against compulsory military training in high schools and colleges, ami against ratification of the Lausanne treaty restoring the re la ntions with Turkey. It likewise demanded rigid enforce ment of the prohibition and narcotic laws, urged the churches to take an interest in the “movements seeking to improve the standard of labor”, and advocated adoption of n child labor, amendment to the constitution. All the resolutions except that deal-' ing with military training, were adopted unanimously. This resolu tion began by declaring the church opposed to war “as a method for the settlement of internationl disputes”, and then added that the convention looked “with disfavor upon compul sory military training in our colleges and high schools.” D. W. Holton. New Tork, moving to strike out the last' phrase, told the delegates tlmt "all we heard in New York after the war was that Father Duffy won the war.” “It is necessary that some one be trained for war. Where is the prop er place, if it is not in the schools?” he continued. "I hope to God that there will be no further war, but if there is I hope that some one will be trained for it who is not a Roman.” The Rev. C. W. T'nderhill, who served as n chaplain in the second division, also urged for training men for military purposes. "We chap lains hate war and no one hates war more than those who were in the front lines, but we pray for a chatree to be trained before we are thrown into the front lines.” he said. Opposing the amendment the Rev. Edward T. Dnhlberg said compulsory military training in schools compared to the principle of conscription in peace times, and wus contrary to American liberty and Baptist prin ciples. . William T. Jerome, Jr., of New York City, agreed with Chaplain Un derhill that military training was ad visable, but said it should not be com pulsory in the schools. To do that, he declared, was “carrying the cross in one hand and the sword in the other.” The amendment was voted down without a roll call. Northern Baptists' to Meet in Chicago.
