The Senator called attention TO a

julius H. Barnes, one of the coun

saving would amount to perhaps ten

very sad experiences during the war;
the Senator added. that New York
terminal facilities are wholly made
quate TO meet the countrys increasing
demand. The cost Of handling traffic
at New York is not going to be lessen
ed by increasing traffic. Both New
York State and New York City will
have their annual increases in this re-
spect. Their shipping point will be

if they Improve their harbor and dock

their own economic development they
WIFI be doing well.

Memory of Founder
Honored at Church

Protestant Clergy Pay Trib.
ute to DIR. Mui,lenbcrg as
Pioneer of Free Worship,
Social Service and Union

The memory of the Rev. William A.
MuhIenbcrg. founder of the Protestant
Episcopal Church of the HOLY Com
munion at Sixth Avenue and Twentieth
Street, was honored yesterday in elabo-
rate services in connection with the an
nual celebration of Founders Day. DR..
Muhlcnberg was the pioneer of free
worship in the Protestant Episcopal
churches in New York, and the Church
OF the Holy Communion was the first to
establish free worship as permanent
church policy.
Bishop william T. Manning preached
the memorial sermon yesterday morn
ing. at which also the Rev. Dr. Alex
ander, Archbishop of the Russian
Church, was speaker. The Rev.
Henry Mottot, the present rector of
the Church of the Holy Communion,
delivered an interesting sketch of the
church's history. Representatives Of
the Greek and Armenian bishops, and
of the various Episcopal universities
and other educational institutions
marched in the professional. The
Methodist, Presbyterian, Congrcga-
tional and Baptist churches OF New
York were also represented by leading
divines.
DR.. Muhlenberg. Bishop Manning
said in his address, had cxerted a
greater influence upon the Episcopal
Church in the United States than any
other one man. He led the way in the
crusade for free pews, established the
first church school, first introduced
daily church services, congregational
singing and the surpliced choir. Among
the most noble OF the visible monu-
ments to DR.. Muhlenberg's memory,
Bishop Manning said, was ST. Luke's
Hospital.
To the founder of the Church of the
Holy Communion Bishop Manning also
gave the credit for being in his genera
ton the foremost leader toward church
union and the pioneer in his time Of
what to-day is known as social service,
