Moral Regeneration
Sole Hope, Eisenhower
Tells Chaplains
! warning that the world "was going
|through an era of “doubt, confusion,
fear and mutual suspicion,” Gen.
Dwight D. Eisenhower yesterday
told a group of religious leaders
that "moral regeneration” was
needed now more than during the
war.
The Army Chief of Staff bluntly
told the General Commission on
Army and Navy Chaplains at a hotel
Statler luncheon:
“Except for moral regeneration
throughout the world, there is no
hope for us, and we are going to
disappear one day in the dust of an
atomic explosion.”
Gen. Eisenhower, and Admiral
Chester W. Nimitz. Chief of Naval
Operations, praised the service chap
lains, especially for their war work,
but pointed to the continuing need
for such leadership.
Dynamic Leadership Needed.
Gen. Eisenhower declared that “a
good chaplain is worth more than
his weight in gold, but a poor one
defeats by his example the very
precepts he attempts to teach.
“The chaplain is no good,” he ex
plained, “who spends his time in a
negative way to keep men from sin.
We are all against sin. What we
need today is dynamic force, con
structive force to lead the world.
The chaplain today has a more im
portant job than ever.”
Favoring eventual “disarmament,
for which we all pray,” the chief of
staff called for “mutual tolerance,
understanding and sympathy for the
other fellow's point of view,” adding,
“we need to train our own minds
along lines implicit in the Christian
religion.”
Admiral Nimitz said that, as of
April 18, there were 1,526 regular
and reserve chaplains on active
naval duty, of whom 177 were in
the regular Navy. The Navy should
have 381 regular Navy chaplains
now, he said, and 481 a year from
nowf.
Ill Chaplains Decorated.
“We are proud of the fine record
of our Navy, chaplains in the war,”
he declared. “Because of the natur e
of their services, their actual con
tribution to victory cannot be sat
isfactorily estimated, but the men
whom the chaplains accompanied
into battle or encouraged during
the tedium of war behind the lines
will be eternally grateful for the
spiritual comfort and inspiration
they received.”
Relating the self-sacrifice of
Chaplain George S. Rentz who vol
antarily swam away from a drifting
pontoon of survivors of the ill-fated
IT. S. S. Houston on February 28.
1942, to give his own life "so that
Jthers might have a better chance
at survival,” Admiral Nimitz said
11 other Navy chaplains were killed
in action. He reported 111 Navy
chaplains had been decorated for
‘heroism and outstanding service.”
