‘3. Organize maximum support for non-partisan relief
work such as that of the Society of Friends for refugees,
prisoners of wart, etcetera, and of the F.O.R.’s Feed Europe
. Fund. In this connection many members and groups have
adopted the practice of a fast or simplified meal at least once

their fellows. Whether by this or other means, all of us arc
moved to explore ways of simplifying our living and to give
more sacrificially to human need. :

communities, of civil liberties, the right of labor to organize
and of pacifist ministers to preach, complete freedom of wor-
ship, and for keeping open the channels of discussion regard-
ing all public issues except those which are in the strict sense
military secrets.
7. Labor to strengthen the foundations of American dem-
ocracy by seeking to discoutage and prevent all forms of war
profiteering and to put an end to all unbrotherly economic
arrangements under which many are in want and others have
disproportionate wealth to their own souls’ hurt.
8. Inquire inte the bases for a just and durable peace and
urge increasing and determined effort for peace by reason
and conciliation instead of by the arbitrament of war. In this |
connéction we continue to advocate the Eipht Ways of Build:
ing Peace recommended by our Conference at Lakeside last

9. Continue out training in the spirit and methods of
non-violence in combatting discrimination and injustice
against individuals and groups and achieving a just and
humane social order.
