...conciliation, conducted under the firm, energetic direction of an authoritative government, will make it possible for all Spaniards to forget these years of conflict and cruelty and will rapidly re-establish domestic peace.

Unlike most labor organizations, A.F.A. did not regard willingness to join as a recommendation for membership; repentance before baptism was its motto.

...bodies in this country. It should take place at once." A candidate for union which is both evangelical and Catholic is the Episcopal Church. Last autumn the Episcopal General Convention invited Presbyterians to join in accepting a broad statement of faith in Jesus Christ, the Bible, the sacraments of baptism and Communion (see p. 54).
