A RIGHTEOUS WAR
DEFENCE OF CHRISTIAN
CIVILISATION
(British OffldaJ Wireless.) (Received January 20, 10.25 a.m.)1
, RUGBY, January 19. In the Convocation of York the Archbishop of York said, "I cannot use the phrase, 'a holy war,' for war in its own nature is always an expression of the .sin of man, but without hesitation I speak of this as being for us a righteous war. It is indeed in a real sense a war for Christian civilisation. The systems of thought and life in the German State today and in its ambiguous associate the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics are systems intrinsically opposed to Christian doctrine."
