"Should Congressional action be taken making compulsory the registration of women for service either with the armed forces or with war industries, let me urge the necessary for providing civilian service for those women whose consciences do not permit their participation in war," Miss Georgia Harkness, professor of applied theology at Garrett Biblical Institute, Evanston,--and said to be the only woman teaching theology in a graduate seminary in the United States -- has written to President Roosevelt. "The primary reason why church women are impelled to mak? this request," says Dr. Harkness, "is the supremacy of the Christian con**jjf science. Loyalty to God must be placed before all earthly claims, and without a recognition of this fact there can be no true freedom of worship."
