WEAPONS OF “ABSOLUTE WAR”
Sir, —Having looked and looked in vain for any comment on your leading article in “The Press” of December 10, I would like to thank you for such a courageous and realistic article. Surely such an article should call for some praise from the leading Pacifists at any rate, but they, like the rest of the world in general, and the Church in particular, seem to be seized with, ip the late Canon Shepherd’s words, I believe, a nightmare of impotence and terror. Surely in the present state of the world it is incumbent on the Church, which professes to be not only a follower but the very incarnation on earth of the Prince of Peace, to give the world a lead out of the bloody maze in which it finds itself by renouncing in apy form the way of force. —Yours, etc., H. W. LORD. December 11, 1947.
