Peace and religious liberty themes shaped at church meeting
A Methodist Peace Commission urged long range economic and social justice efforts and immediate steps like aiding European recovery and adopting human rights covenants. Calls grew for education funding reforms, religious liberty protection in Spain and Latin America, and cooperation to resist communism. The Hymn Society of America launched its official publication The Hymn and Methodist Women plan a 1950 assembly in Cleveland with a national program.
