PRIMARY WAR AIM
DESTRUCTION OF EVIL FORCE. BROADCAST BY ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) LONDON. May 11. The Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Cosmo Lang, broadcast a message todav from a London meeting convened by the Sword of the Spirit organisation, which was founded by Cardinal Hinsley. head of the Roman Catholic Church in Britain. Dr Lang said that Britain's first war aim was the destruction of the powerful evil force of Germany and the liberation of the nations held in bondage. It was plain that men had trusted in themselves and neglected God. and the wrong use of science had subordinated man to the machine. It would help in the immediate struggle if they could look beyond the immediate darkness to the coming of a better day. The meeting carried a resolution which gave a united lead on the foundation of a just peace expressed in a letter signed by the Archbishops of Canterbury and York, Cardinal Hinsley, and the Moderator of the Free Church Council.
