CHRISTIAN ORDER
Sir,-You say that "the Campaign for Christian Order is a campaign for moral, social, and political order and concerns us all." No section of the community would be likely to oppose such a campaign if that was its only object. But if we can judge by the Rev. Mr. Ryburn’s broadcast address, the Churches are to follow up with an attack on our priceless heritage of free, secular, and compulsory education. Mr. Ryburn says: "Whoever uses the present crisis to push the interests of his party against the in-’ terests of the nation is a traitor." What of those who use the present crisis, while so many fathers are on military service, to push the interests of their creeds
against our secular educational system? Why ‘choose the present time, when we should all be preparing to repel the brutal followers of the Shintoist religion from our shores, to try to force into our schools creeds and doctrines that are rejected as false by so many of the world’s leading scientists and thinkers?
