IN Young People Attend Christian Mission Banquet (Continued From Page One) in his address. He brought out the thought that we need Christ as the cornerstone of our lives, using Ephesians 2:20 as his test And are built upon the founda tion of the apostles and prophets. Jesus Christ himself being the chief cornerstone. 'Jesus knew all the answers,' he said, speaking of problems we must face. Civilization crumbles because of its founda tion. Dr. Dunn gave several reasons for accepting Christ as the cor nerstone of our lives: "He is a superlative Savior, surpassing all others. Jesus offers us the power to become, not just the power of being. Jesus is the purveyor df ideals. He is the Ideal." s Challenging the statement heard so frequently today that the world was never so bad as it is just now, Dr. Dunn stated that history shows that throughout the centuries the world has been steadily improving. Christ came into the world at its worst and yet he saw the : possibility of God's kingdom here on earth, he sqld. ... Dr. Dunn emphasized the fact that Jesus kept peace in his heart and that he was never vin dicative. He said that although all the armaments in the world might be destroyed, we shall never have peace until we are unarmed within. As long as the spirit of retaliation exists we shall have struggle, he declared. He continued that we have a redemption Christ "Behold I stand at the door and knock. Come unto me." Christianity has the answer. The answer is Christ. The program for Thursday in cluded a session for the minis ters at 10 a. m. and a session for women at the same time.

LONDON, March 13 UP) The British air force, throwing new and more powerful bombers in to its greatest assault of the war, blasted Germany and German-held territory from Berlin to Boulogne and Norway in the last 24 hours, the air ministry said today, and was "very suc cessful." Tremendous fires and explo sions were declared by the air ministry to have been started at Berlin. Hamburg and Bremen and a German destroyer was re ported torpedoed in the Skag errak, arm of the North sea be tween Norway and Denmark. Matching the massive offen sive operations, informed sources said Britain now was DrcDared also to fill the skies over Eng land with night fighters to fend off the luftwaffe's destructive dusk-to-dawn assaults. The effectiveness of the rein forced defense set-up was dem onstrated by a one-night record last night when at least nine German bombers were shot down as they attacked the Mer- cyside, important shipping area concentrated at Liverpool. Further proof was offered in the declaration that the ratio of one raider downed out of 30 heretofore had been reduced now to a l-to-20 ratio.

Another observer declared 10,000 explosive and incendiary bombs were dropped, many ships in the harbor were damaged, and huge losses were inflicted espec ially among grain elevators and storehouses. Thirteen British planes were said by the high command to have been shot down, ten of them in the attacks on Berlin, Hamburg and Bremen. "Only residence sections, hos pitals and a church" were listed as damaged. Military and in dustrial objectives escaped for the most part, it was declared.

In other actions, the high command reported: 1. The sinking of a British de stroyer by a nazi speedboat off the English southeast coast. 2. The hitting of three big merchantmen and the sinking of another in attacks by reconnais sance planes on convoys off the British east coast. ,t 3.
