The Describes Conditions In Germany Tod t a dinner meeting of the St. m Andrew's United Church Men's Club last night the guest aker was the Rev, Dr. Earl §. Lauten- slanger of Toronto's Howard Park United Church. A graduate of Vic- toria and Emmanuel colleges in Toronto and + London University, he was introduced by James Carson as a world traveller who would speak on conditions in Sormany where he recently visit- aker, quiet and unimpos- The s ced his talk had left it and did not realize what was happening. The church was also to balme lowed itself to become out of date and lost its appeal to the people. N He switched to the political situa- tion Germany. He felt this was the fault of the Allies who netrate far into Ger- many at end of the second world war. The situation today, a capital split and ruled by oppos- forces, is the result, he said, arrogance of Russia in building a monument to her war dead in the defeated capital is without an his- torical precedent. The Germans cannot understand why the Rus- sians were allowed to build it in the western zone and keep there two full companies of soldiers to maintain the huge thing. Canada's army was also cited 'as a poor representation of demora- tic people to the Germans who, ac- cording to the speaker, are unde- terminated whether they want fas- barely - he | tion. He recalled the worker's riots . | of last summer the greatest dis- cause it al- | and \ ay East BERL East Berlin, which he felt com- pelled to visit surreptitiously, was 'cheap, crowded and r, and everyone was miserable." The great Berlin University, unfortun- ately in the eastern zone, was plas- por: play of courage ever seen in the world, when unarmed workers marched against armed soldiers threw pa: stones at tanks. In a way, felt Mr. Lautenslanger, the occupation of most of the coun- try communist forces was a blessing in dis to the Germ- ans. It prov conclusively the superiority of democracy over communism, a lesson not brought home to the Germans at the end of world war two. CHURCH HELPLESS "A totalitarian society cannot take over a relatively Christian country. Hitler came to power be- cause 75 per cent of Europeans were pagans and the church was helpless without adherents to sto) the Nazis taking over. The churc told them what was going on, what Hitler was doing to the country, but they did not hear because they were not there. We can keep our church strong." - "No country ever dies political ly or economically before it has died spirjiually. Keep your church alive and vital. Keep it up to date, cism, communism or acy. There was no doubt in his mind that "Canada's army, b no conscription is allowed, is subnor- mal. It contains with rare excep- tions, only men who are too lazy to do anything else. Because Berlin is completely sur- ded by Russian-held territory, Spiritual Leadership Seen Church Essential "Progressive leadership in the realm of the spirit is essential if dhe Christrian Church is to keep pace with the fast-moving demands of the present age," declared Presi- dent William B.

The General Conference as the meet is termed will see over 15,000 representatives from Canada, the United States and almost every country in the world assembled to give consideration to the busi- ness of the Adventist Church and its far-flung missions.
