Fourteen leaders in the religious and social service world have accepted positions on a commission which will conduct a complete survey of efforts now being made by religious agencies throughout the world to further international peace. Their report, according to the announcement made yesterday at the headquarters of the World Conference for International Peace through Religion, will be presented at the conference to be held in 1932.
Bertram Pickard, international Quaker leader at Geneva, is chairman of the commission, and Marvin Lowenthal of Paris, contributing editor of the “Menorah Journal,” is secretary. Rabbi David de Sola Pool of New York and Dr. Ariel Bension of Jerusalem are among the members of the commission.
