(To the Editor of the "China Mall,”

Sir. I wish to thank you most sincerely for the courtesy of granting me space in your esteemed publication on two pre- vious occasions.

On many occasions Mr. Adler, writing as the Committee on Publication for the so-called "Mother Church in Boston, has made statements in the Press to been which exceptions have taken. On January 8, 1929, in the "China Mall," I asked Mr. Adler kindly to answer two ques- tions. On January 10, 1929, in the "China Mall" I extended a courteous invitation to Mr. Adler to meet me and to discuss these questions inasmuch as he evident- ly does not wish to defend his statements in the Press, or is not permitted to do so. Since he has not replied I enclose an article from the "Christian Scionce Watchman," entitled "An Inter- esting Incident in China," which shows that "history repeats it Belf."

I wish to make it clear to your readers that the members of the organisation in Bonton have no friends more faithful nor more doving than the members of the Christian Science Parent Church. The following.. extract from an editorial in the "Christian Science Watchman" sets forth clearly and accurately the distinction be tween the two organisations, which all must soon come to realise:

it he said:-

In 1906; Samuel Greenwood made the following prophetic statement in the "Christian Science Journal" --

"The Mother Church is the pioneer, of that great world Church which the prophetic ylaion of our seera has foreseen and foretold, even "of."that twentieth century New Church in which reason and revelation, Science and Christianity, will be united in a Christian Science which will demonstrate for all mankind the way of health, boliness and love."

"In your issue of April, 23 there was a letter from Mr. John V. Dittemore cominenting on one from me published in the South China Morning Fost"

on February 10, which he declared contained implica tions unfair to Mrs. Annie C. Bill. No such intention, ever entered my head, and I very much regret that anything in that letter could be so inter

profed

If Mr. Bernard's statements were not unfair to Mrs. Bill, it means she correctly presented An unprejudiced investigator Mrs. Eddy's teachings. If her will find that the emphatic pur-presentation was inconsistent pose of the new embodiment with Mrs. Eddy's views, it means known as the Christian Science that Mrs. Eddy's teachings when Parent Church is to practically re- practically applied Will not abolish instate the "Mother" system of physical warfare. collective, government.

This ayatem impels continuous unfold- ment of spiritual facts of life and removes the tragic effects of individual and collective mis- understanding of the scientific basis of the true "Church.”

Let all those, who "having ears, "hear" and let them find "The inspiration, which is to change our standpoint," and be lifted higher by the unfolding truth as discerned and demons- trated by the present day leader of Christian Science, Mrs. Annie C. Bill.

Yours etc.,

"An Interesting Incident In China”

11

On February 9 members of the Christian Science Parent Church in Hong Kong published in the South China Morning Post An address by Mrs. Annte C. Bill on the subject The Cause and Care of War." This address, originally delivered in Washington DC had appeared in "The Washington Post," and in various other lications. It was in substante

The representatives of The Parent Church are rather losing hope that they will ever get an official representative of the Boston body to openly attempt to point out a single published statement in Mrs. Bull's writings or in the contents of the "Chris tinn Science Watchman" that departs from the beaching of Mrs, Eddy. They are confident, how ever, that reckless unsupported statements, born of malice, or fear, are losing their power to de- ceive the public, even when put forth by persons whose reputa- tions

otherwise should cause them to be expected to know better.

Arsenals

The Conference resolved that arsenals should be placed under the direct control and supervision of the Central Government. ...The Conference decided to carry out the practical part of the disbandment programme by dividing the task into six regionis geographically, the first four cor- responding to the first four Army Groups, the fifth and the Three Eastern provinces and the sixth Szechuan, Yunnan and Kweichow.

The present programme is a re duction in the national army to a 'maximum of 65 divisions, each of about 11,000 men. In other words, this means a reduction of more than half the strength of the present, armies.

Revenue

"Even after the programme haa been carried out, the strength will continue to be decreased until military expenditure equals 40 per cent of the national re venue,

The Conference passed for taking care of the disband men, comprising a pension scheme for the disabled and industrial and vocational training,

The Conference further resolv ed that as soon as the Disband- ment Commission's regional and district, offices have been estab ished, all revenues throughout China will be collected and con- trolled by the National Finance Ministry. The Finance Ministry will remit the troops pay to the Disbandment Commission for dis. tribution and the six regions will budget to the Ministry for the payment of the various units.- Reuter
