The United States government has been invited by the council of the League of Nations to say before May 1, 1932, whether it desires to endorse "the Easter Act" of the international conference on Calendar Eeform at ueneva last October propoatog to the churches the stabilixattoa of Easter on the bunday after the eecond Sat urday in April Most of the delegates at the confer. ence voted for the declaration with the authority of their governments, but the United States representatives, Dr. Charles F. Marvin and some others did not, their instructions requiring them not to commit their government at this conference. A recommendation was, therefore, inserted that the league should ask the governments which did "ot en dorse the declaration at that time, to do so before May 1, 1932, afer which it should be transmitted to t'ie Holy See and other Christian churches with an expression of hope that they would consider it "in the most favor able spirit." This the council re cently decided to do. Purpose of The "act" savs that from the . ocial and economic standpoint the stabili zation of Faster and other moveable festivals would be for the common good, pointing out that their present instability Faster wanders over a pe riod of ;." days i.'-disturhs the regu larity of industrial, financial, com mercial and judicial activities, as well as the application of a normal plan of school and university studies." It points out that the Holy Sec had already announced that if the gen eral welfare called for changes in the traditional method of determining Faster, it would examine the ques tion on the recommendation of an Fcunrenical council, and that the other Christain churches had raised no objections provided the reform met the approval ol all of them.
