Bishop Henry st. 6. Tucker
Says Americans Given
Leadership Responsibility

DR.. Albert J. Mccartney. minis
ter of the Covenant First Presby-
terrain Church, Connecticut avenue
and N street NV. was to be guest
preacher at the Holy Week service
at noon today at the Church of
the Epiphany, Thirteenth and G

Beginning the noontime Holy
Week services yesterday. Bishop
Henry st. George Tucker, Presiding
Bishop of the Episcopal Church and
president of the Federal Council of
Churches, declared. 1T is easy now
TO talk with enthusiasm about Gre
ating new order after the war" 3"
but in the postwar period it will
mot be so easy when we begin to
feel the consequences that must
be endured in order to insure the
new order"
America now has 8 peculiar re-
sponsibility, he continued. We are
Gods chosen people, not Gods
favorites, but the people in which
He has placed the responsibility
of leadership"
The victory which we hope to
gain" he said. the value of that
victory, depends on our own per-
lection, perfection through suffer
ing. And we must not resign our
selves to that suffering, but rejoice
in it."
Bishop Tucker declared, however,
we must bear in mind that vic
tory must be gained through striv-
ing for the perfection in others,
not in our own perfection. We
must work not for our own security,
authority and perfection, but for.
the welfare of the world as a whole" :"
Unless our interest is as great
outside of American borders, this
Nation may become the greatest
hindrance to completing Gods pur-
pose" the bishop declared.

whatever may be midas poll
teal future we go on in confidence
that this Indian church will con-
tinue in India as other Indian
things continue" stated Rev. Ray
mond A. Dudley yesterday in his
address at the Second Congrega-
tional church.
Rev. Mr.. Dudley, graduate of
the 1916 class at Yale and Yale
Divinity school in 1919, has been in
India "a years and throughout that
time has been the missionary rep
resentative of the Second Congre-
gational church, this city, working
under the American Board of Bos-
ton.
Rev. Mr.. Dudley said in part:
Christians in Waterbury who give
would wish to be assured something
fundamentally worth while is be-
ing accomplished. And we who 90
would wish to be assured our lives
are contributing to q movement OF
enduring worth. therefore wish to
suggest five things that are being
accomplished through missions
among midas 400,00000O people.
/. There are nearly 100000
outcastes in India who have tradi-
tionally suffered religious, economic
and social disabilities on a vast
scale. Through preaching and
through teaching, new life and light
has been brought to vast numbers.
The government Of India and pro-
gressive Indians are now sharing
with us in the uplift OF these peo-
pie.
2. The 20,000,000 women and girls
of India have carried q heavy bur-
den. 1t Is a burden caused by IL
literacy, poverty, lack Of sanitary
consciousness and inadequate So
cial and religious conceptions
Through pioneering in education,
in cooperation with other agencies,
we are helping these women to
more abundant life.
3. Through our college, our high
schools and our normal training
schools, we are training thousands
OF leaders to serve as government
OiiiSCtsi iOStOio, lAhol'GSNOio vi oIAioOAo
and teachers who are contributing
richly to midas new day.
4. Mr.. Lorbeer Is visiting the
graduates Of his normal training
school, now scattered in numerous
villages. Mr.. Hess Is meeting his
classes in Shakespeare. DR.. Wilder Is
caring for his patients. Miss Chand-
Ter Is visiting the homes. Steadily
through these contacts a friendly
relationship Is being built up be-
tween West and East which serves
as a basis for the new international
order we seek in this day to create.
5. In these ways and In other
ways we are spreading the spirit of
Christ and we are building in In
dia's villages mighty church. 1t
Is church in which several denom-
nations are united. 1t is a church
which will serve down through the
ages as an agency to complete that
which 1t has begun for midas re-
demption.

LONG TOM GUN
DEADLY WEAPON
Springfield Product Out
ranges Best of Nazi's;
Accuracy Uncanny

Springfield. Mass, Nov. 8-Army
Ordinances famed 1856 nm Long
Tom" gun, the hard-punching
Rommel-router of the North African
and Mediterranean campaigns, is
spearheading General Mark Clark S
steady drive up the italian peninsula
with an incessant hail of high ex-
plosive projectiles.
In the Battle of Naples and in
heavy artillery duelling on the VOL
turno River line, batteries of reliable
Long Toms" outranged the best
Nazi field pieces, poured murderous
fire into Marshal Kesselring's back
pedling defense line, and were SO
accurate that they smashed his
bombers, figsters and protective gun
emplacement on air fields is miles
away.
The battle for airdromes has
proved to be one of the most i'm
portant phases Of the Italian cam
paign. With every forward Ameri-
can thrust, captured enemy air.
fields not only affect current fight
ing south of the Alps but also bring
the Nazi heartland within closer
range Of our Fortresses, Liberators
and Lightnings.
THE rugged, fast-moving and
incredibly accurate Long Toms
are ideal for certain types Of battle
operations in Italy" Brig. Gen. Guy
II. Drewry, district chief, command
ing the Springfield Ordinance Dis
trict, declared today.
The Long Tom" Is mounted on q
split-trail carriage, which permits
IS degrees elevation and go degrees
traverse. The carriage Is equipped
with six giant pneumatic tires and
air brakes which permit the big
trouble-maker to be toWed behind
a fast moving truck. The weight OF
the gun in travelling position Is IL
tons.
In battle action, General Drewry
explained, a 2-foot 95-pound high
explosive projectile, with Its me-
chanical fuze set for delay or super
quick action, Is rammed into place
Thirty pounds Of smokeless powder
in cloth bags are then thrust into
the breech. The breechlock Is closed
primer inserted. Firing Is accom-
plished by quick pull or snap OF
the lanyard.
This hard-hitting 24-hour gun
blasted Rommel In North Africa,
bombarded Tunis and Bizerte, help
ed to drive the Axis out OF Sicily
in 80 days, and fired the first pro-
jectile from Messina to the Italian
mainland.
Forty-eight hours after the Ma
rines landed on Rendova Island In
the Southwest Pacific, a row OF
heavy slugging-mm Long Toms"
were pouring a steady stream Of fire
into the Japs on Munda eleven
miles away. Easy hitting for Long
Tomsp
Equally at home in the desert, the
jungles OF New Guinea, and the
soggy mountain terrain Of South
Italy, the sharp-shooting Long
Tom" is daily winning new laurels
against Rommels cohorts.
