Excerpt from Recent Discussion of Mormon Affairs: Answer to the Ministerial Association's Review of an Address to the World by the First Presidency of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints

Norm - The following answer to the Ministerial Association's review of the Address of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to the world, was de livered at two meetings of the M. I. A. Conference, Sunday afternoon and even ing, June 9. The speaker expected to close his remarks with the afternoon meeting, and therefore omitted certain matters that were intended to be dis cussed at the time the subject to which they were related was presented in the afternoon, but which, for lack of time, as he then supposed, went over to the evening session. In this printed copy of the speech, therefore, some of the remarks in the evening are brought over into their proper place, and connected with the subject matter to which they most properly belong. Also the speaker has added some items that were outlined in his notes prepared for the occasion, but not used either in the afternoon or evening. In order that such new matter might be designated, it is placed in parenthesis.

Today, my brethren and sisters, we convert this pulpit into a forum, from which we propose a defense both of our faith and the Church. Nor. Do we violate any of the proprieties in this change, because when truth is to be defended and injustice re sented, then all places a temple, and all seasons summer.
