ranking general, paid tribute yesterday
to her first.
Standing before a model of an edifice
that George Washington conceived as
the symbol of this country's faith in
religion, the man who led the American
EXpeditionary Force in the World War
pointed to the Washington National
Cathedral as IAN evidence of what the
spirit of Christ means to our civili-
zation.'
His talk was made into the micro
phones of a talking picture camera in
the preparation of a sound film which
was released today.
Gen. Pershing, who is chairman of
the national committee for the cathe-
oral, said that every loyal citizen must
realize that good government springs
from a high sense of moral obligation,
and that the degree of morality among
the people is dependent upon the ex-
tent of their religious convictions.
1T will certainly promote that cause
to create here in Washington a great
cathedral that will stand as an endur-
ing evidence of what the spirit of Christ
means to our civilization" he con-
tinued. Washington Cathedral will
represent the ideals of our democracy.
People from every section of our coun-
try and from every walk of life will
participate in its perfection"
The cathedral has been completed
except for the north and south tran
septs, which form the arms of the
expressed that the cathedral will be
finished for the 200th anniversary of
the birth of George Washington, in
