When in the memory of those now living have so many articles
on religion been appearing in secular newspapers and magazines.
Before me now is a copy of the February 26th copy of Christian Sci
ence Monitor containing a feature article by William H. Stringer,
The President and the ‘Still Small Voice’..” This article reveals the
deeply religious background of President Eisenhower and the re
markable way in which his religious faith has flowered since he be
came president. This process commenced with his
famous inaugural prayer which he wrote and de
livered personally before his inaugural address.
Now* with Mrs. Eisenhower, as a member of the
National Presbyterian church in Washington, D.
C., he is setting an example for the nation in regu
lar church attendance. In addition he has initiated
broad rehgious activities in the nation’s capitol. He
is a member of one of the fourteen religious break
fast groups functioning in Washington, which in
cludes one for House and Senate members, one
which embraces the judiciary, and a businessmen’s
group.
Some may say that the Christian Science Moni
tor is net a secular paper. However, it is one of the best newspapers
in the nation. The March 22nd issue of Life Magazine contains a
similar article, ‘The President’s Religious Faith.’’ by Paul Hutchin
son, which covers substantially the same ground as that in the Chris
tian Science Montor.
For the past several yean there has been a growing deepening
spiritual interest throughout the nation.
Medkfel science has pointad to the fact that many of our modern
ailments stem back to fear and frustration brought on by lack of re
ligious faith. We are learning that one of the greatest aids to phy
sical health is spiritual health. Furthermore, conditions in the world
today, which come to charp focus in the challenge of atheistic com
munism and the threat of mass destruction from the atom and H-
bomb, tell us that if we are to survive as a people we must learn to
live together as children of God. As a nation we are slowly learn
ing that prayer is the mightiest force in the world operating through
faith and love. The President is giving us good leadership in this.
In addtion, the American Legion, composed of men who know war
from first hand information, most of whom fought wars not of their
own making, have a program calling the nation “Back to God.”
