Education Crusade Launched.
Leaders of more than 40 denomin-
ations completed plans this week for
the largest cooperative effort OF
Professionalism since the First World
War. They officially launched the
United Christian Education Ad-
vance, a four-year plan Of educa-
tional evangelism designed to bring
religious instruction to 100000
spiritually illiterate" children and
youth of this country who have no
relationship to any church.
More than 1900 religious educators
met in Chicago to launch the
crusade. 1t was the largest annual
INSTRUMENTATION assemblage in
America, the yearly meeting Of the
International Council Of Religious
Education. The delegates viewed the
Christian education advance as the
most important development in
American Professionalism in q genera
ton. Many Of them, In fact, ex-
pressed the opinion that 1t may
contribute to the complete merger Of
all Protestant interchurch agencies
eight of them in all-since the
convention voted its approval for the
International Council to enter the
proposed merger Of these agencies.
A series OF 135 State and regional
conventions throughout the Nation
will begin in a few weeks and will
launch the religious education
crusade in local areas.
Wartime Platform Adopted.
Major event at the Chicago meet
ing was the adoption of q war
time" platform designed to guide the
Christian education forces Of North
America through the period Of ma
tional emergency. Urging the ap-
plication Of spiritual priorities" to
the whole field of religious education,
the platform recommended:
Shortening and simplifying of.the
educational process.
Reinforcement Of personal religious
life.
Cultivation Of tolerance and good
will among all races. classes and
creeds and towards minority groups
and enemy aliens insofar as such
attitudes are consistent with ma
tional safety.
Continued study of the bases for
q just and durable peace.
Provision of religious service to
men in camps and workers in de-
fense industries.
In other actions, the convention:
Pledged the council membership
to pray for the victory Of the ideals
Of religion and democracy"
Petitioned the Government for
priorities on paper and other print
ing needs for religious books and
magazines
Made plans to organize tens Of
thousands of children in swiftly ex-
panding defense towns into church
vacation schools this summer.
Asked church groups for funds
to make available to men In the
armed services literature for study
classes to be organized by chap
lains.
Opposed discrimination against
Negroes in the armed forces and
in defense industries, and asked
equality of treatment for Negroes
in the series of 135 conventions,
some Of which will be held in South.
ern States.
For the first time in its history.
the International Council opened
its convention to laymen. More
than 500 of them were present.
They formally organized a lay con-
ference.

DR.. Esteban Gil Borges was man
of princely character. To meet him
was to understand that the ancient
ideal of gentleness and chivalry sur
wives. He will be remembered for the
noble qualities OF his heart as well
as for the distinguished faculties Of
his mind.
Born at Caracas on February 8,
1878, he was by inheritance member
OF the Venezuelan aristocracy, the
heir OF fine traditions Of public serv-
ice. At nineteen he had finished his
education and was ready for his work
in the world. The first of his achieve
ments to be noticed abroad was the
negotiation of boundary agreements
terminating a quarrel with Colombia
which dated back for generations.
He was president Of his country's
supreme court in 1902. Coincidentally
he developed a career as a teacher
in the university OF his native city
where his subjects were sociology
and the history and philosophy Of
law. Twice he was Minister of For
eign Affairs.
DR.. Gil Borges, however, was pos
sessed Of talents too universal In their
nature and scope to be limited to any
single nation. BY instructive choice
he cultivated a cosmopolitan expert
ence. At different times he repre-
sented Venezuela in Paris, London
Berlin and Madrid, but 1t was In
Washington that he found the best
opportunities for the constructive
labor he wished to perform. He waa
a convinced believer in Pan Amer
icanism; and, especially in the role Of
assistant director Of the Pan Amer

This Is the plant which gives the huge
dish-sized flowers. In Hawaii and other
tropical places the flowers are great
favorites, but they are equally as ac-
ceptable In cities everywhere.
This is one tropical plant which every

flowers fully live up to the idea Of an

The WAVES

The Woman's Reserve Corps got
offlcially under way Monday, when
Lieutenant Commander Mildred H.
McAfee, president Of Wellesley COL
lege, took her oath Of Office as an
officer, and there will be about
1000 women enrolled in the Navy
during the next five months. The
particular significance of this would
seem to be that for the first time
women will have almost precisely the
same rights and obligations as men
In an armed service.
It is true that they are not likely to
be called on to scrub decks, stand
watches, man guns-at least not for
the present. They will be recruited
to replace able bodied men now on
shore duty, in jobs which they prob
ably can perform with at least equal
efficiency The largest opening at
present is in the communications
branch Of the Navy. Many will serve
as secretaries-but as sailor secre-
taries."
The WAVE" will be under essen
TALLY the same discipline and con-
form to the same ways Of life as a
man sailor. She will be more inte-
grated into the Navy pattern than
the "WAAC" into the Army pattern
Her rank will be in every way equiva-
lent to that of a man assigned to
the same duties. In other words, the
woman who enlists in the Navy Re
serve is casting aside the ancient
many believe antiquated and IRA
