- W777775130 abstract "74 BULLETIN OF FRIENDS' HISTORICAL ASSOCIATION the sacredness of all personality. Yet Prof. Henry J. Cadbury of Harvard warned that the martyr complex is to be avoided as well as servile, spineless conformity. He felt that the conflict is not so much with the state as with the social order under the judgment of the social conscience. The typist of his message accidentally wrote naturalism for nationalism, which, he added, is nearly true ! Friends of Friends can readily understand at such a conference how there are two foci to the ellipse of the Quaker faith: the Inner Light and the expression of the Divine Imperatives in what they call their concerns. Their faith must show itself in the services of these concerns, but behind it all is the contemporary revelation of the Inward Light. Herbert G. Wood of Woodbrooke Settlement, Birmingham, England, said at the public meeting tonight that Friends meet on the basis of the love of God revealed in Christ. Knowing Christ to be identified with the suffering and oppressed, he said, they stand ready to help and in their ministry of reconciliation to win men by long-suffering and persuasion, friends of truth and of all men, since Christ died for all. D. Elton Trueblood of Leland University felt that Quaker distinctiveness was in the combining of silence and the society of the group. Rufus M. Jones is the presiding clerk; R. Halfdan-Nielsen of Denmark, assistant clerk; Paul D. Sturge of London, deputy clerk. President Aydelotte of Swarthmore and President Comfort of Haverford brought greetings at the opening session. INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION OF FRIENDS By Leslie D. Shaffer At the recent Friends World Conference, when the question of International Cooperation of Friends was considered in Commission V, a sufficient concern developed that some action should be taken. The Business Committee, the plenary session of the Conference dealing with this subject, and a special meeting attended by representatives from all Yearly Meetings with delegated attenders at the Conference gave thorough consideration to the question. In order that we might apprehend each other's INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION75 needs and each other's contributions, some means of more effective communication were deemed essential. The Conference itself brought Friends to realize as they had never comprehended before the international aspects of the Society of Friends. It made those at the Conference aware of the fact that we need to strengthen each other's forces wherever possible and that we also need to keep freshly before us the contributions that various groups somewhat isolated from the larger centers of Quakerism have to offer. The following Minute was prepared and approved by the Conference: Minute 27 We accept the proposals of the Business Committee as set out in the following statement: It is generally felt to be desirable that this Conference should not disperse without making some provision for future promotion of contacts and cooperation among Friends. We believe that this will be best accomplished by providing for the setting up of a committee, the purpose of which would be to act in a consultative capacity, to promote better knowledge and understanding among Friends the world over, particularly by the encouragement of joint conferences and intervisitation, the collection and circulation of information about Quaker literature, the revision of the Hand Book, and other activities directed towards this end. We therefore propose that this Conference should suggest the setting up of a Consultative Committee on the following basis: 1.The International Committee, representing all European groups, to serve as a nucleus. 2.The Board of Directors of the American Friends' Service Committee to be asked to nominate ten or more American Friends to cooperate with the International Committee for a period of one year, or until a substantial number of American Yearly Meetings have named their own representatives. The Board of Directors to be asked to approach all Yearly Meetings on the American Continent, including Cuba and Jamaica, with a view to the naming of such representatives. Thereafter, the Board of Directors to be asked to nominate annually not more than seven members at large. 3.The International Committee to be asked to consider whether it adequately represents London and Dublin Yearly Meeting. 4.The..." @default.
