on
the
work

and
the
healthy
condition
of
the

His
address
on
"The
New

In
Europe
After
the
War"
showed
that
he
possessed
a
full
knowledge
of
his
subject.
A
spiritual
regeneration
wasj
taking
place
In
Britain
and,
said
the
speaker,
this
rebirth
must
spread
throught
Europe
from
which
the
new"
order
would
result.
Spiritual
factors
and
the
Golden
Rule
would
be
the
foundation
of
the
resurrected
Europe.
The
false
philosophies
of
Nazi
doctrine
would
be
destroyed
by
the
awakened
masses
In
Europe
after
victory
had
been
achieved
by
the
democracies.
At
the
conclusion
of

the
