To the Editor of the "Nokrm-Cniva Dairy News"
Sir,—Mr. B's letter of the 12th inst., querying the applicability of Moral Re-Armament (hereafter abbreviated io M.R.A.) to present world conditions, intrigues me and, in reply, I have the pleasure of penning the following that comes fo my personal knowledge.
MR.A., whose creed comprehends Christ's four standards of absolute honesty, absolute purity, absolute unselfishness ahd absolüle love, is the only solution to the problems conting the world. today. Its sole ive is to bulld a näte-free, free, gréedifrée world, Of <(Bokttse, this ney world cannot be "built in a day or a year. It will take long time, But since the movenent is so rapidly gaining strength in every nation of the world, its goal will unquestionably be in sight in the near future.
As, one of its well-known slogans, MR.A. begins with you and me, irrespective of creed or class, sex or nationality, and requires, first of all, a change of heart by letting God guide us in our daily work and contacts, It is the testimony of life—not, lip—that convinces the unbelief ers to joi this world movement, It requires its followers to practice Christ's teachings rather than to preach them, I have seen many in the movement whose lives are changed from the restless to peaceful type and their erstwhile broken homes are now built on the basis of order and harmony. These people who have found peace in their own hearts, are eager to give their friends and relatives that peace. As the movement is expanding, the time is bound to come when enough new men and new homes will establish a new nation and enough new nations, a new world. believe the figures of Chinese and Japanese losses released and supported by Japanese Imperial General Headquarters, the same which has been quoted in part by Mr. H.G.W. Woodhead in "The China Year Book" of 1939. These Japanese figures of numbers of corpses of Chinese troops found abandoned on the field of battle are as follows July 1991 to November 1938—823296 December 1938 to April 1939—113049 May 1939 to November 1999 282,117
Total: E 1,218,462 Official figures for Japanese killed ön battlefields as reported from the Same source reveal that from July 1937 to January 1939, 51,000 bodies were recovered.
As for the number of troops on the field of battle, I am inclined to believe that Mr. Arnold's figures are likewise misleading because it is common knowledge that both Japanese and Chinese guard such information very closely as military secrets.
