Bishop Sherrill Urges
Episcopalians to Heed
Urgent World Issues
By Caspar Nannes
Star Stoff Correspondent
PHILADELPHIA. Sept. 20.—Epis
copal clergy and laity were urged
to look beyond their immediate prob
lems to the \irgency of the grave
world situation by the Right Rev.
Henry Knox Sherrill, newly elected
presiding Bishop of the Protestant
Episcopal Church, in an address to
the House of Deputies this morning.
The House of Bishops, supporting
Bishop Sherrill's view of world needs,
voted today that $1,000,000 a year
for the next three years be raised
for world relief in war-devastated
areas. The resolution passed the
House of Deputies yesterday.
The action was taken as the 55th
Triennial General Convention of
the Episcopal Church held its clos
ing sessions of the two-week meet
ing on the University of Pennsyl
vania campus.
Calls for Broad Vision.
"Let us be broad visioned and big
hearted,” Bishop Sherrill urged.
"The only hope of the world and
the future is that human nature be
changed by Gods goodness into
some measure of the fullness of
Christ.”
Pointing out that Europe was deep
In starvation, ruin, tragedy and
hatred, Bishop Sherrill declared he
missed the sense of urgency of the
day at the convention.
"Most of the things said during
this W'eek might have been said in
1945 as in 1946.” he asserted. "I
hope you will carry home a sense
of the urgency of the world situation
and the demand that we be united
in a world missionary enterprise.
When it comes to suporting the mis
sionary work of the church,” he
continued, "I hope we have less re
spectability and more fanaticism.”
Pays Tribute to Bishop Tucker.
Paying tribute to the Right Rev.
Henry St. George Tucker, retiring
presiding bishop, as a "great pre*
siding bishop,” Bishop Sherrill said
he hoped Bish<fp Tucker would par
ticipate actively in church affairs
and give him the benefit of his ex
perience and wisdom.
‘‘I pledge my consecration to the
best of my ability to the task.” he
continued, "but that is a small
thing. I ask more than your loyalty.
I ask consecration of all that you
are to the task ahead.”
During his talk, Bishop Sherrill
said in the past lawyers in the
House of Deputies always have had
a field day with the presiding officer.
“But I now understand,” he said.!
looking at former Supreme Court j
Justice Owen J. Roberts, president j
of the House of Deputies, "that the I
lawyers will now have to get their
practice at home.”
Retirement Resolution Defeated.
The House of Bishops today de
feated a resolution requiring clergy
men to retire on reaching the age of
72. The motion, passed yesterday
by the House of Deputies, was to be
effective in 1957.
A grant of $60,000 a year for
the next three years was Voted by
the general convention for the ex-;
tendon of town and country chutch1
work. The fund was to be admin
istered through the Division of Do
mestic Missions of the National
Council.
The Women's Auxiliary voted to
day to hold its 1949 meeting in
San Francisco at the same time the
general convention meets.
To Clarify Origin of Church.
Another resolution adopted by the
House of Deputies will seek to clarify
the relationship of Henry VIII to
the founding of the Anglican Com
munion for future students.
The Diocese of Iowa advanced the
subject by pointing out that secular I
schools have been teaching that
Henry VIII is the founder of the
Angelican Communion. The diocese
asked that the department of Chris

tian education of the National Coun
cil ‘endeavor to secure correction
of this erroneous teaching in text
books used in secular schools.'1
A spokesman said the Episcopal
Church holds that the Christian
Church was started before there was
any particular church. Later there
developed a split between the East
and West Catholic Churches, re
sulting in Greek and Roman Cath
olic Churches. But before this break,
missionaries came to England and
were there when St. Augustine
visited the country.
The English church, the clergy
man explained, always was restive
under the growing power of the
papacy. When Henry VIII was un
able to get a nullification of his
marriage from the Pope, he be
lieved the Anglican bishops would
give him one provided the Church
in England broke away from the
Roman Church.
The clergyman said the Anglican
Communion'had by this time been1
holding services and reading the1
Bible in English in addition to fol
lowing other Reformation features
The final break between the Church
in England and the Roman Cath- \
olic Church came during the early
years of Queen Elizabeth’s reign,
the spokesman noted.

Ex-Head of WAC
Sports Variety
Of Novel Hats
By a Staff Correspondent of The Star
PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 20.—Mrs
Oveta Culp Hobby, former WAC
head who is attending the general
convention of the Episcopal church,1
has been rivaling Hedda Hopper
and other hat enthusiasts with the
number and variety of hats she is
wearing.
The first day Mrs. Hobby wore a
washtub thingamubob with green
and red taffeta ribbons. The sec
ond day she went over to a combat
helmet, gray with spangles. On the
third day she wore a chapeau that
resembled the Leaning Tower of
Pisa plus jade ornaments.
Next on the list wTorn was a hat
that looked like a large mushroom
with a tight ribbon band below it.
And fifth, she wore a black snood
completely covering her hair.
Asked the reason for all these
hgts, Mrs. Hobby replied, "I am a
refugee from a WAC uniform.’1 i
Bidault Defeats De Gaulle
By Tie on Constitution
By the Associated Press
PARIS. Sept. 20. President Georges
Bidault won a round today in
his political tug-of-war with Gen.
Charles de Gaulle over the proposed
new French constitution.
By a tie vote. 21 to 21. the
Constituent Assembly's Constitution
Commission approved the govern
ment's proposed text for a federal
union which would knit the nation's
colonies to the homeland under a
new deal of increased freedom and
autonomy.
Under the Assembly's rules, a tie
vote is considered affirmation.
Mr. Bidault yesterday had in
formed the commission that he
would interpret rejection of the gov
ernment proposal as showing lack of
confidence in his government. He
delivered this ultimatum after Gen.
de Gaulle had condemned the pro
posed constitution, and particularly
the phrases pertaining to the
colonies.

Gen. Erskine Urges
More Job Training
For War Veterans
ly th* AuoclaUd Pr««
CHICAGO, Sept 20.—Maj. Gen.
G. B. Erskine of the Labor Depart
ment said today that the “quit rate"
for veterans employed in the manu
facturing industry "has been com
puted to be 50 per cent higher” than
for the nonveteran workers.
Gen. Erskine. administrator of the
Labor Departments retraining and
re-employment division, told the
National Association of Personnel
Directors this figure would be “sub
stantially lowered” if employers put
imore stress on plant orientation
and training programs for veterans
and paid recognition to wartime
acquired skills.
He said "The Selective Service
Act guarantees the veteran his old
job back, but the granting to vet
erans of their statutory rights
, ' ———|, I,,
should be only the minimum efforts
which employers make in their hir
ing of veterans.
‘There is also the moral obliga
tion to do all that can be done in
placing the veterans in suitable jobs
—jobs with a future. » • • • One of
the best ways to'help a man read
just himself to civilian life is to pro
vide him with a job which he is
qualified to perform and in which
he can make a worth-while contri
bution to society.”
Many disabled veterans, Gen.j
Erskine said, ‘‘are meeting over-1
whelming odds in their search for
jobs. Throughout the Nation, about
a quarter of a million disabled vet
erans are ready and able to go to
work but cannot find jobs.”
