cnlloren Cnereby became the
only woman minister in the
church's largest conference.
For several years Mrs. Ham,
rich was a member of the Hill
crest Church in Fredericksburg
But her nursing duties restricted
her interest in the congregation
In her talks with several
patients she learned about
Antioch Church. which is 6 miles
northwest Of Fredericksburg
The passing years had not been
kind to the congregation and
eventually the old church was
closed. But those she talked
to regretted the shuttering OF
the building and expressed the
wish that some day It would
be reopened.
Mrs. Hamrich decided to dc
something about 1t. She spoke
to DR.. Roland F. Riddick, SUPER
intendent of the Alexandria
district. and received his per-
mission to have the church re-
opened.
Someone had to serve as min
lister. So the tall and attractive
nurse took correspondence
courses on preaching from the
church. Early this year she re-
ceived a license as an approved
supply minister.
Since its reopening Antioch
Church has been on the up
grade. AS for the Fredericks-
burg mother. her duties at the
church resulted in her giving
up the nursing profession.

The CSEU originally de-
manded 10 per cent increase in
wages of both groups of strikers,
whose pay averages $36.40 a
week. The shipyard employers,
IN direct talks with the union
bosses, offered a S per cent
raise conditional on the union
agreeing not to demand an in

countered that it would accept
5 per cent II the employers
would leave a further 2h-per

Mexicans dead or injured. Police
hunted the factory owner for

Eleven bodies-four Of them

Most Of the casualties resulted

Fort Derrick

FORT DIETRICH, Md, Mar.
% Pj.-secretary Of the Army
Brucker inspecting the Army
Biological Warfare Research and
Development Center here, says
he looks upon its weapons as a
pretty strong deterrent to war.
Newsmen had asked Mr..
Brucker yesterday II he rated
biological warfare and the re-
lated fields of nerve gas and
chemical warfare along with
nuclear weapons as a means OF
discouraging attack. Mr.. Brucker
replied that he believed BW has
a rational place" in the cate
cory OF deterrent weapons.
Asked whether the United
States would feel bound TO wait
in the use OF biological or gas
weapons until first attacked by
an enemy with such materials.
Mr.. Brucker replied that was a
policy matter which would be I'D
to the President, not the Army
TO decide.
Reporters said some OF the
residents Of the nearby city Of
Frederick there had expressed
apprehension" over the possi-
bility that this BW center was
a hazard or that it might at
tract enemy bomber attacks in
event Of war. Mr.. Brucker said.
II think it (the BW center) is
perfectly safe. There is no dam
ger, no hazard 10 the commun-
ity."
On the other point, the Sec
rotary suggested that II would
think there are other targets
that would be more profitable
10 an enemy bomber force.
