He served the church as an cider. The funeral will bs held at the National Cathedral, an Episcopal church, however, be cause of space limitations at' the Presbyterian church. The President, in addition to directing that Dulles be given an official funeral, also ordered mili tary . honors. Dulles served as major with the general staff of the Army in World War I. i Al graveside .ceremonies, Dulles will be given ,o- 19-gun salute honoring his former cabinet rank. A bugler will play taps. Life Waned Gradually Dulles' life had been gradually waning for weeks as cancer com plicated by pneumonia sapped his once rugged strength". The. President said that Dulles was "brave in dying," as he was in living. . With Dulles when the end came in the medical center's executive suite were his wife of 47 years, Janet; his sons, John and Avery; his brother, Allen, head of the Central Intelligence Agency, and his sister Eleanor, a state depart ment official. Eisenhower was notified at Gettysburgh, Pa. He walked sadly to the sun porch of his farm home and wrote in long hand on a pad a simple and moving tribute to his friend and counselor. Then he and Mrs. Eisenhower motored back to Washington and visited Dulles' widow for 20 minutes. She was reported by friends to be bearing up well. . In his four-paragraph tribute, Eisenhower called Dulles "one of the truly great men of our time" who devoted "a lifetime of labor for world peace." . . "He was a foe Only to tyranny," the President said of the former secretary. World Eulogizes Dulles . Similar expressions of admira tion' fpr Dulles as a man and for hisifiqrviee to freedom came from leaders around the world. "We've lost a good public ser vant," former President Truman said. "A great American has passed," said Sir Winston Churchill, who visited Dulles only three weeks ago. Vice President Richard M. Nix on said Dulles lived long enough to see history vindicate his policies, some of which seemed unpopular at the time he advoca ted them. In Russia Radio Moscow re ported Dulles' death routinely and without commnct as the 14th item in a news program of 17 items. Only in Communist East Ger many and . Czechoslovakia were bitter words spoken even in death of DuUcs.-The -East German radio compared hispoliices.. with those of Hitler. As the chief foreign policy arc hitect for the United States, Dul les exercised profound influence over the whole course of the West ern response to the Soviet chal lenge. He was responsible for a vast expansion of pacts and al liances that bound the free world together 'against Soviet imperial ism. As secretary of state he exer cised a special brand' of personal deplomacy, logging more than half a million miles of travel in ob serving, listening and negotiating. He pursued this vigorous course until close to his 71st birthday last Feb. 25. A few days earlier on Feb. 10 he checked into the hospital for a hernia operation and doctors discovered he was suffering from a recurrence of the abdominal cancer for which he underwent surgery in 1956. On April 15 the President, va cationing in Augusta, Ga., walked into a hastily-called news confer ence and announced with moisten ed eyes that his foreign policy chief had resigned. Herter was named DullCs' suc cessor. The President, in a gesture of deep devotion, later swore in Dulles as a special foreign policy consultant. But he never was able to function in that capacity to any extent. ' MORESPORTS Roedel Wins GplfPlay John Roedel led first flight golfers Saturday in Better Nine play with a net.
