Horror Fails

To Shock Modern World

London, May 11.

The Archbishop of Canterbury, referring to Far Eastern hosti- lities at a meeting of the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts, criticised the patience of Christendom with the horrors of war.

"It would be fuifle to say that our sympathies are with China,“ he said. "We have got so accus tomed to these horrors in the twentieth century, so accustomed to Christendom being patient when it reads about bombinga and slaughters, that it makes one wonder whether the Devil has not got pussemion of the world and part of our own cotxelence.” -Reuter.
