Clergy Warned of Propaganda In Plea to Act for Peace Churches Must Move to End War, They Are Told, as 'Lies' Are Assailed By keeping a wary eye peeled for propaganda and urging peace by negotiation, ministers can best carry out the Christmas spirit "peace on earth, good will among men," the Commission on International Justice and Good Will said today in a message to Brooklyn ministers. "The war in Europe is an evil thing which we cannot help by becoming a part of it," said the message, addressed to the Brooklyn Church and Mission Federation. "We would warn the churches against the rising tide of war propaganda," it continued. "The effort is being, made to make Americans feel it is our war, a clear-cut issue of liberty against dictatorship. The sober historian will tell you a different story.

CITE STREAM OF 'VISITORS' "But already a stream of amiable visitors from the British Isles are in our midst to oblige with public dresses, newspaper interviews, etc. To be sure the Germans would like to be here if they could," but they have a difficult time even mailing materials to the United States.

The resolution, sponsored by Julius Applebaum, a trustee, also held that highly desirable when fully qualified lawyers or justices are available to fill in the Court of Appeals be positions, chosen from all of the judicial departments of State." Noting that the 2d Judicial District and 2d Judicial Department contain more than 32 and 40 percent, respectively, of the population of the State and that they are I sources of "a very large portion of the business of the Court of Appeals," the measure pointed out: "The 2d Judicial District has a very large percentage of lawyers and justices of the State, a number of whom are fully qualified by character, ability, experience, learning and temperament to fill the important office of Associate Judge of the Court of Appeals." In conclusion the resolution provided that "the Governor be and he hereby is respectfully requested seriously to consider for appointment as Associate Judge of the Court of Appeals attorneys and justices residing in the 2d District who are fully qualified for the said office." At the Queens meeting, conducted in the Queens Central Court House, Jamaica, an appeal to the Governor couched in much the same terms as that of the Brooklyn group was approved without dissent by 150 lawyers. Ben Weichselbaum, association president, presided. Meanwhile the campaign to persuade the Governor to select a resident of the 2d District, comprising Brooklyn, Queens, Nassau, Suffolk and Richmond, was gaining headway in political and civic circles throughout the five counties involved. A resolution similar to that of the Brooklyn and Queens Bar Assowas being prepared this by Robert S. Fleckles, preseident, and other officers of the Brooklyn Trial Lawyers Association.

The place to be vacated by Chief Judge Crane already has been filled. In addition to acting on the vacancy, the Brooklyn Bar Association, through its president, Francis L. Archer, presented to Conrad Saxe Keyes, head of the group in 1937 and 1938, a gold plaque "in recognition of outstanding leadership and service." Robert S. Fleckles, who arranged the award in collaboration with Dean William Payson Richardson of the Brooklyn Law School and Burton B.

Turkus, both of whom are in Florida, merited declared this that token Mr. Keyes of esteem by a unanimous vote."
