The committee must determine whether it can be brought back to the floor since the uniting conference was empowered only to harmonize the disciplines of the three churches. Landon argued that opposition to shipment of munitions to Japan and support of conscientious objectors to war would put the church in the position of "starting a fight that we're not willing to finish." Argument Follow Herman Will, of Chicago contended that support of the Landon proposal would 'encourage war mongers, "Militarists, munitions manufacturers and even Fascists of this country." Landon, a World war veteran, leaped to the floor on a point of personal privilege when one delegate said all speakers who supported Landon were "gray headed or bald headed" and "too old to fight." The former governor termed that argument "cowardly" and an unt.iir challenge of the patriotism of his supporters.
