COMMUNION RITES
TO Be OBSERVED
Worldwide Services Ar.
ranged; Local Churches
TO Participate

World Wide Communion Sunday
will be observed October 8, IN
most of the Protestant Chrlstlan
churches of Wilmington, accord
ing to a statement made Friday
bv the Rev. William Grove, Jr.,
publicity chairman for the Will
mington Council of Churches.
Special arrangements have
been made in practically all Prot
estant churches of the city to give
special emphasis to the power OF
the Cross of Christ to unite men
throughout our war stricken world
in a Christian brotherhood the
minister said.
1.-THE movement for the univer-
sal celebration of the Sacrament
began in America six years ago
when the clouds of war began to
reach terrible proportions, he
said. Eight years of financial de-
preston had been completed in
America. The rest of the world
has suffered for a much longer
period. In 1887 most thinking peo-
pie became certain that univer-
sal conflict would come soon. Re
ligious leaders caught the vision
of all Christians uniting on one
Sunday in the celebration of the
basic ordinance of the church ca
tholic.'
1.-The movement became popular
Immediately" the minister con-
tinued. Sunday the Protestant
churches around the world will be
united in Sacrament. The ritual
will be spoken in hundreds of Ian
guages and the settings will vary
from chapels to prison camps
Although a survey has not been
made, DR.. Grove said that there
will probably be universal OBJ
servance of the day among Prot
estant groups, both white and Ne
gro.

RUSSIANS BATTER

killing thousand Germans and
Selling food and ammunition
stores. The Russians were report
ed within II miles of the city sew
eral days ago.
The Germans hurled an artillery
barrage and several counterattacks
against the advancing Russians in
the Vitebsk rea but the Soviet
troops kept attacking and in a de-
!ermined smash took stubbornly
defended height, the Russians said.
The communique, for the second
day, gave no details of fighting
elsewhere on the 700-mile front.
German broadcasts, however,
made much of a battle they said
had ended with Russian defeat
in the southern Ukraine. The high
command communique said h e
Russians lost 40 out of $50 tanks
in a mass attack near Zaporozhe
on the Dnieper river bend.
There, where the Dnieper turns
far to the east, the Russians were
said to have attacked with more
than IS infantry divisions, six tank
brigades and a large unmbeer OF
. artillery formations along a TO-
mile front.
Capt. Ludwig Sertorius, German
radio commentator, recorded by
the Associated Press. called it "a
major defensive success" but ad-
mitted that despite heavy losses
suffered by the enemy there seems
little doubt that the Soviets will
continue their attacks
The weather in the south re-
mains dry longer than in the north,
where the fall rains already have
mired many of the roads, the Ger
mans said.
Nazi broadcasts also admitted
some Russian advance columns
had driven across tt e mighty
Dnieper but said they had been
hemmed in and that all Russian
attempts to reinforce h m by
bringing up major forces from the
east were frustrated.

3 MILLION PAID
TO ship WORKERS
Net Profit OF Local Firm
For 1912 Figured At
$1,301,360

About s32, o45, 1000 was paid tc
EMPLOYEES of the North Carolina
Shipbuilding Company during l94z
while the net profit of the COM
pany was 81, 3o1, $3.50, according to
the annual report of the stock
holders of the parent organization,
the Newport News Shipbuildlng and
Dry Dock company, by Homer l..
Ferguson, chairman OF the ooaro'
on September 16 and made puollc
here Friday. ,o
The statement of profit and loss
and earned surplus accompanying
the report showed that the gross
income on shipbuilding contracts
during the year was $42, $685. 2o4'
Contract costs and expenses
amounted to $37 $50, COS, leaving
net profit on contracts OF S4,TTh-
679. Other costs and expenses re-
duced the net operating profit to
4,737, $3.50.
Taxes accrued amounted to
$146, OOO Tor 1edefdl llleoiliS
and surtax, $4,000 for federal RAJ
excess profits tax, less 1884 ooo
for postwar refund of excess prof
its tax, and $284,o00 for state m
come tax, cutting the net profit
carried to earned surplus to
ST, 3O1, 1850. The report showed
deficit of STA, 100 on December 81,
1941, resulting from operations IN
that year, which reduced the earn
ed surplus on December 81, l942'
to 81, 227, ITO.
Because of the North Carolina
company's working capital re-
quirements, no dividends were
paid by it during 1912, the report
stated.
The delay in making the annual
report on the affairs of the New
port News company and its sub
sidiary here was the result Of re-
negotiation of certain of the con-
tracts of the parent company with
government departments n d
agencies.
