While there no absolute agree- ment between Conservative leader Manion and Mr. MacKenzie King, there has been a general under- standing that there oulld be no unnecessary political battles be- tween the two old parties during tho war period.

Pacifists Will Offer Services

‘IORONIO, O0. 26-(CP)-—Dr. W. Harold. Young, Chairman of the War Service Commitee of the Un- lted Church, will receive a dele- gation of United Church Clergy- men next Tuesday to consider their offer of non-military service to Canada.

‘The delegaton ‘twill 5068556 Ways and means by which the work and scope of the War Service Commit- tee can be enlarged and enriched because we feel that some things can be done on the positive side which will make for peace.’ a mem- ber of the group said tonight.

The group of '15 Clergymen issued a "witnsa against the war" declar- ation last Friday. A meeting of the sub-executive of the General Council of the United Church last night issued a statement “regret- ting“ the manifesto and affirming the Church's allegiance to the Crown and willingness to assist in every possible way in the PINE!" conflic .

Tne group of '15 in their mani- festo, offered to undertake any duties equally as taxing, difficult, and dangerous as military serwlice providing it did not contribute di- rectly to the war effort.

"It was Divine intervention that saved the Allies from defeat in the last war." Colonel Weatherbie stated at the opening of his re- marks,

Allies." During the last war, Colonel Weatherbie waalnQuebeeaaSuper-
