Honored by Clergy.
Fellow clergymen of Washing
ton have responded to the bish-
ops interest in local affairs by
electing him president of the
Washington Federation of
Churches on two occasions, 1943
and 1949.
When Bishop Dun was elected
bishop in 1943. he was uncertain
as to whether he should take
the post.
Looking back, I miss some
what the more intimate personal
relationships of the small area
community and the great privi-
leges of quiet study and teaching
life that a seminary gives" he
said. But I believe moved into
an area of wider responsibilities
and I have no real regrets about
the decision. I have been very

Needless to say, others as well
as Episcopalians are happy that
