UNITY AND ITSSHADOW

norm war 11, uuw iu »i» oom

nonth, has brought us to the eve»f one of the most important, one>f the most stirring events in allniman history; the invasion of theontinent of Fortress Europe- ffromhe West. At this time of testing,vhen the Service leaders of theJnited Nations are calling uponhe men and women in all the gi-antic forces under their commandor their last ounce of effort, thene paramount need is for worldmity against the Nazi and Fascistictators-What sort of unity have we? Is ituilt upon the everlasting rock ofroad, mutual understanding and□lerance? Or is but a facade; aliiug built upon the quicksandsf expediency and likely to topplea the night? What do we mean bymity’, anyway? These are butome of the cpiucstions, to which attlc searching self-analsis mayclp us find the answers.In its deep and inner meaning,

erhaps one of the most beautifulhrases ever coined comprises justlose two words United Nations,leal and lasting unity, born of thepirit, and activated by the desire

>f man to better not only his ownot but also that of his neighbour,,vould banish war for evermore- Itwould raise the world standard ofliving, spiritually, socially and ma-terially in a way no other drivingForce could ever do it. World unitypresupposes world tolerance, mu-tual international endeavours tobetter the lot of all men, and theextension of the “good neighbourpolicy” to include all humankind,white man, black man, red manand yellow man- It means broadtoleration between majorities andminorities, religious as well as rac-ial, political as well as economic.

Is that what we have among andbetween the United Nations? Well,frankly,As it? Inevitably the answeris No. We have unity of a kind, yes;unity on the surface; unity for theduration of this war, and possiblywe shall enjoy this surface unityfor a few years after we haveachieved the primary purpose forwhich it was set up: Complete andunconditional surrender of the en-emy. Of true unity, though, \vchave had as yet but the shadow,Cven that shadow has enabled theworld to achieve miracles of pro-duction, miracles of transportationand distribution, and battle recover-ies which turned apparent defeatinto a series of glorious victories.AH this because the world wasgiven breathing space by the mirac-ulous spirit of complete unity whichanimated the people of Britain intheiir darkest hour. Truly, thenthey earned their proud and his-toric title: the United Kingdom.

Yes, much has been achieved bythe United Nations merely throughi unity which was primarily im-pelled by the goad of necessity-How much more, then, could bechalked cm the score board if theshadow were supplanted by the sub-stance and the whole world enjoyedthe real thing.World War It has taught us and is

teaching us a great deal. For in-stance, we have learned that itreally started on September 1, 1931.when Japan invaded Machuria- Act-ually the war is in its 15-ltli month-not merely Its 58th- For IS longyears China has been battling theinvader. It was M. Molotov whofirst pointed out that peace is indi-visible. We've learnt that fromWorld War If- We lost the “peace”between the wars because we weredivided, disunited. World unitycould have prevented tins- Thiswar’s second phase came in late1933, when Germany withdrewfrom the League of Nations. Thethird phase came in 1935 whenGermany regained the Saar andItaly invaded Ethiopia. The nextfour years all added their chaptersto the ruthless progress of the ag-gressor nations, and then, in 1930,Hitler fell himself strong enoughopenly by force lo reap the harvesthe had sown so deliberately withhis dictum of divide and conquer.All this because Hitler well knewas we are so painfully learning,that unity is strength- He imposedupon his own people by force aform of unity which gave Germanya strength she'd never known. Thathe used that strength to go haywireis beside the point at the moment-The important thing is that he didacquire it through unity. It was notuntil the rest of the world unitedagainst him that the United Nations

jcould bring their combined strength'to bear against him*

“APPOINTMENT FOR LOVE”

A gay and moving modern comedy-drama which accumulates keen ad-ded interest through co starringthe talented and eye-arresting Chas.Boyer and Margaret Sullavan.

The Universal him makes an un-qualified bid lor complete approvalof the family as well as the adulttrade- It will surprise in that,whereas Boyer and Miss Sullavanhave been largely occupied withheart-throb drama of late, they hereturn their talents delightfully tocomedy-drama almost pure farce at jtimes. t

Development and backgrounds of c“Appointment for Love” are thor- foughly modern, the play's theme ttaking a firm grip on the problem tpresented when husband and wife \

are confronted with the burning tquestion of whether career—their tseparate careers, more accurately— £

shall come before or after their fdomestic life and affairs. Naturally cthis presents a perfect setting for icomplications and misunderstand cings which, ‘under the astute pro-duction guidance of Bruce Manning tthe able direction of William A- tSeiter,the skilled character- tizations of a dozen stellar perform ters, reaches unusual heights ol 0dramatic fun-making. i,

EARNESTLY CONTENDINGFOR THE FAITH’

(Contributor)To contend for something which has

been the chief ‘‘bone of contention” formany centuries would only be folly if itwere not possible to reach the bone andnot merely the shadow. The bone inquestion hero is the truth of the Bibleand ita promises, on which man’s eter-nal welfare depends, lo go into thematter thoroughly in these short articleswould be a hopeless proposition. Muchhas been written on it for and against

but the Bible and its promises stillstand; and its prophecies have preparedintelligent readers for its present daylack of interest in the masses. TheBible has been refuted, exploded andoverthrown many times—but it is likeupsetting a cube of granite. It is asbig one way as another. Upset it andit is right side up, upset it again and itis right side up still. According toVoltaire Christianity was to have beenswept away and to have passed intohistory over a century ago Voltairehimself has passed into history whilehis printing press has been used to printbibles and the house in which be livedbecame a storehouse for the BibleSociety. H. G. Wells has made asimilar prediction which has not eventu-ated, and he is not too happy about hisown final destiny. The thought ofmerely becoming history does not appeal to him, Though the massesneglect it, Christianity has not lost itspurpose nor has its Founder lost Hispower, which has been revealed in manyways in the past and is being revealedto-day and which will be more impres-sively revealed in the near future—lsa42-13, 14 God is all-powerful andthe Bible being given by the inspira-tion of God, is as much the work andthe word of God as though it werewritten by His own hand. Had humanefforts been uncontrolled by divinewisdom which alone is unfallible, II Tim3-16,17, then modern criticism mighthave been excusable. As it is manyhonest critics have to confess that inspite of its many vicissitudes the textof the Bible is pur»r than most godly

had dared to hope, And it stillhas many earnest believers.
