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.
At 2 p. m. three separate
seminars were to take place,
conducted by Dr. Norman K.
Tully, Dr. Ray S. Dunn and
R. W. Coleman on the subjects,
"Personal Faith and Experi
ence," "The Church. How can
we make the church effective in
its present day task?" and "Lo
cal relations. How can we live
as Christians ln an un-Christian
society?"
The evening meeting was to
begin at 7:30 with Dr. R. S.
Dunn as speaker.

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.

tonight. Rhodes is in the Dode

Mediterranean. '
The" communique said heavy
explosions and fires were caused
at the Dodecanese island of Scar
panto. The British reported fires vis
ible 20 miles away after bomb
ing an airdrome and hangars at
Maritza, and said that at Calato
and Kattavia "all bombs fell on
airdromes."
Rayburn Plans

WASHINGTON, March 13 UP)
Speaker Rayburn told his press
conference today it was planned
to have the $7,000,000 British
aid appropriation bill ready for
the house on Tuesday and that
efforts would be made to pass
it the same day.
A short time before a house
appropriations subcommittee was

the huge measure. Acting Chair

newsmen he hoped to conclude

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.
The many fires were extin
guished quickly and night fight
ers and anti-aircraft guns often
forced the British to dump their
bombs prematurely, the Ger

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. Daylight attacks on indus
