TWO LECTURES GIVEN BY MASTER OF BALLIOL

"Christianity and Economics" Subject Of Jewett Lecturer--Lindsay Ends Series Tonight and Tomorrow

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Two lectures on the general subject of "Christianity and Economics" will be given today and tomorrow by Alexander Dunlop Lindsay, master of Balliol College, Oxford. In the first of these Dr. Lindsay will speak on "The Nature of Economic Necessity" at 8 o'clock tonight at the Episcopal Theological School, and tomorrow evening will conclude the series with a discussion of "The Duty of Christians in regard to Economic Relations, or the Christian Attitude towards the Economic System."

Dr. Lindsay has already delivered three lectures of the series, in which he took up the distinction between religion, politics, and economics, the nature of economic necessity, and the confusion of ends and means in modern society. In addition to holding the office of master at Balliol for eight years, Dr. Lindsay is an authority on philosophy and government. His books include "The Philosophy of Bergson," "The Nature of Religious Truth," and "Essentials of Democracy."

This series, known as the Hewett lectures, is given at intervals of three or four years, customarily on some subject connected with modern problems of religion.
