Miss Young compared this move to the recent formation of the Un- ited Church Women, absorbing the Woman’s Missionary Soc- iety, and making it an integral part of the whole church. The theme of the conference was “Jesus, the Light of the World," which was developed in worship services and bible study groups led by outstanding Chris- tians, such as Pastor Neimeul- ler of Germany. Consideration of racial tensions and discrim- ination consumed considerable ‘time. climaxed by the strongly worded speech by Sir Francis IbiamI which enabled the dele- gates to realize the depth of feeling of racial groups against colonialism or paternalism in‘ any form. politically or rel-ig-, iously. According to Miss Young. population explosion was dram< atically evident in India, where‘ not in the foreseeable future is it possible to hope to provide a satisfactory standard of liv-l ing for the teeming millions. She“ spoke of the great contrast beg“ tween the modern India as ex- emplifed by the lovely city of New Delhi with its open spaces, majestic parliament buildings and spaciousness. contrasted, almost side by side, with the old forts and temples, the crowded_ old bazaars, and evidences of great poverty in Old Delhi. However Old Delhi also gave an impression of colour, vividness and spontaneity, and everywhere was evidence of the great zeal .of the Indian people for the future of their country. The im- pression made by Christian del- egates to the conference on the Indians was very important. she said, particularly since it is a country in which a very tiny minority are Christians, where Hinduism is directly associated with patriotism, and where there is a large and energetic following of Islam. The unity of the church in a world under threat of a nu- clear war was also considered fully, she reported. Although‘ churches are not yet prepared; to become one body, yet it was‘ realized by all representatives that there is a great need for a united front. It is our oneness in Christ which marks us as Christians. Our unity must ex- press itself in our churches’ witness and service to a com‘ ‘mon Lord.
