dent at Vir- Rev. Albert e. Taylor.
ginia Theological Seminary. In
1905 he was made vicar of the
chapel, then situated in a rented
building on Conduit road (now
Macarthur boulevard not far
from Chain Bridge. Through the
YEARS until his death last Janu-
ary, the welfare Of the mission
was ever close to MIR. Warmers S
heart.
The rector Of st. Adams did
not live to see the chapel become
a church by action Of the. 54th an
nual diocesan convention this
spring. but he had the satisfac-
ton of knowing such action was
being contemplated by that body.
Earliest Members.
According to one of the earliest
members of the mission, Mrs.
Margaret Episcopo, 'st. David
Church could trace its origins to
a small group worshipping in the
building mentioned above about
1899. One Sunday morning she
heard some singing in the small
church. She investigated, decided
to attend the services and later
was confirmed. A Mr.. Holmead
was the minister in charge OF
these early services.
Another early member still ac-
tive as an officer Of the present
church Is w. Eldridge Hamilton,
a vestryman and member Of the
Buildings and Grounds Commit
tee.
Members Of the first vestry of

st. David's Church are Frank K.
Sanderson, senior warden; DR.. r.
Lomax, junior warden; Roland G.
Davies, William C. Bowles. Mil
ton K. Eckert, w. w. Hubbell,
Fred S. Jaspersen. Mr.. Hamilton,
Francis c. Hunter, Laurence s.
Lynch, Humphrey P. Harnsber-
ger and Charles E.. Sener. jr., who
is also treasurer, Francis L. Adams
is registrar and A. w. Connor Is
financial secretary.
In 1902 the Rev. G. c. F. Bra
tenahl, then rector of st. Adams
Church. took the mission under
the wing of st. Adams Parish.
According to one account the
building on Conduit road was
bought In 1904. 1t was later en-
larged. In 1910 a parish hall was
built.
At Low Ebb in 1887.
For a time membership in the
mission dwindled. until by 1887 1t
had reached a low ebb. At one
time the doors of the chapel were
closed. Services. however, were
held regularly, first in the Frank
Shull factory on Brewer place
NV, and then in the Palisades
Field House near the Cabin John
carline not far from the present
church.
But the vigorous enthusiasm
Of teen-age members Of the
church started the congregation
on its upward rise. They planned
and put into effect various enter
prises which gave new life to the
church. In April 1910 they added
a stalwart ally in the person OF
the Rev. Spence A. Dunbar. who
became vicar. His five years In
that post saw the tottering con-
gregation become strong enough
to stand on its own feet.
Under the direction of DR.. War
ner the mission was reorganized
Just before the present war the
neighborhood around st. David's
Chapel changed radically with a
large influx Of newcomers. In
1910 the old chapel site was con-
demned by the government to
make way for a highway. With
the money from this sale the pres
ent property was bought a year
later. Through DR.. Warmers ef-
forts money was raised to build
the nave and vicarage OF what
will eventually be a cruciform

Labor Versus Cancer

ORGANIZED labor Which has pioneered so many good
things for America has wdened the scope oil It's concern %
from mere dollar and cents attitude to include such vital
matters as better health for all It's people
1t seems fitting then that national efforts to controi
cancer should receive the full endorsement and active ad
of labor
The American Cancer Society has asked all the major
organizations of labor to cooperate in yearound program
of education This being done through lectures by quail
flied speakers distribution of pamphlets and the display
of posters and films
All of these things are being used to tell us that cancer
which will kill an estimated 10000 members of organized
labor in single year. frequently be cured detected
early and treated promptly
The Cancer Society points out that at least third OF
the 900 Americans who die annually of cancer could be
saved with surgery and radiation the disease were only
treated in time
Much of this appalling loss of life be averted
through efforts of organized labor The educational program
now going bear rich dividends If all OF us do our snare
This only of several approaches to cancer control
nronoed y the American Cancer Society vast research
program underway which cost $950O0OO over period oil
less than four years
Scientists are seeking the of cancer, means
of treating the disease and finally complete control through
reality In the meantime expansion OF education can save
mofe and more lives

the nation Sick supplies furnished People are

ing transported in many instances by the Soceys Voun

Costly radiation equipment is being purchased with
Cancer Society funds for clinics and hospitals Money is be-
ing put to work in hundreds of ways to fight cancer
The Society points out that it depends entirely upon

be added to the research fund The rest will for educa

States Make Good On FEPC

While Congress is debating the Presidents proposed
civil rights legislation the state legislatures in session this
year have given encouraging evidence that the claim for
states rights must be coupled with the assumption of state
responsibility
The American Council Race Relations says in its lat
est report that states whose legislatures have been in
sion this year have enacted fair employment practices eg
laon They Washington, New Mexico and Oregon. Sim
liar legislation under consideration by the legislatures of
Colorado, Illinois, Iowa. Michigan Minnesota, Missouri, Ne
braska Ohio Pennsylvania and Rhode Island.
In most states the fair employment practices bills de-
signed to eliminate discrimination in employment account
Of race creed national origin have bipartisan support
Widespread citizen support is forthcoming including labor
business religious organizations and newspapers.
Industrial and business leaders in New York, Massachu
sets Connecticut and New Jersey who had experience
with the laws in their states are lending encouragement to
legislators in the states considering such bills Their
testimony that fair employment practice commission laws
have been good for business and supported by labor and
the public has proved the most convincing argument far
The outlook for 949 for the enactment of fair employ
nent practice legislation in the northern states reported
more favorable than during any previous year.
