- Of Delinquency Fight in Washington, By EMMA RIVERS MILNER Times Church Editor : The man whose church program was praised by J. Edgar Hoover of the FBI spoke last night at the Mission to Christian teachers in the First Baptist church. He is Dr. John W. Rustin, pastor of the Mt. Vernon Place Methodist church, Washington, D. C. Of the
linquency if every church in the|
Dr. Rustin spoke on “Evangelism for a New Day,” giving his own conception of what evangelism really is. To sum it up tersely, it is a religlous program which extends to #verybody from the most underprivileged to the most fortunate. And he is working it out in his
"tion's capital. All-Week Program
While he has enormous crowds for Sunday morning worship, for Sunday school and for the midweek services, this alone, is not evangelism, Dr. Rustin says. Evangelism is his all-week community program which gathers in children, youth and adults of the neighborhood for handicraft, music, entertainment and classes and clubs of all kinds. Evangelism, according to his idea, is a well-rounded schedule adapted to the needs of the entire community. The schedule must never be dull. The reason the churches are losing thousands to new cults, to tabernacles and store-front places of worship is because of dullness, he charges. “Instead of criticising the
made the churches so dull and so formal we are losing people by the thousands?” he thundered from the pulpit last night. %
Pleads for Negro
In an earnest plea for fair opportunity for the Negro, Dr. Rustin related how his own Washington church has lost its effitient custodian, a world war II hero returned from service, because the man could find no “decent” place in Washington for his family to live. The custodian is moving to ew York where he has been given a $2600-a-year job and where he has found wholesome living quarters. Dr. Rustin is a Southerner; born in Georgia, but he condemned the grave mistake the South is making in not creating better conditions for the Negro-tenant-farmer. He pointed out that thousands of the Negro farmers have migrated from the South in the past few years. . He paid tribute . to Alcoholics anonymous, saying in it, a secular organization showed itself able to do something for the redemption of inebriates that the church had been unsuccessful in accomplishing. The | church preached about the evil of | high alcohol and extolled the 18th! i amendment, but lacked the vision! to establish anything resembling Alcoholics anonymous, he said,
Discusses Clubs
In fact, Dr. Rustin seemed to + have a very sympathetic feeling for many organizations which did not originate in the church. He said the only thing he remgmbers about his visit to Indianapolis four years ago is the enjoyable experience of speaking to the Kiwanis club. People don't come to Kiwanis, Rotary and other secular clubs expecting to be bored as they do, to church, was his indictment. Dr. Rustin will continue the presentation of his views at the closing session of the mission at 8:13
1050 teachers and leaders of religious groups are registered attendants at the mission classes This evening, before the mass meeting, various denominations will hold separate meetings.

Nazis Admit Reds Break Through on
Narew River Line
LONDON, Oct. 31 (U. P.).—Nazi broadcasts said today that the Red army opened a new offensive all along the Narew river front below East Prussia and broke through the German lines at two points. Berlin also reported that Soviet pressure had “increased considerably” in the Liepaja (Libau) sector above East Prussia as the Russians battled to clean up the wings of German resistance before the Junkers province.
desperate German opposition had stalled the frontal onslaught against East Prussia, and the Soviet command now appeared to be jockeying for positions from which to launch a massive nutcracker assault from the south and northeast in conjunction with the westward push toward Insterburg.

In addition, 40 agents were sought in Detroit, 30 in New Orleans, 20 in New York, 25 in San Francisco, and 12 in St. Louis, he said.

Air Strength Mounts
As the Yanks struck westward in a 70-mile-an-hour typhoon, thousands of tons of ammunition, rations and clothing poured ashore on Leyte. American fighters hovered almost constantly overhead, and there was no Japanese interference. Indicative of the mounting air strength, several types of planes in addition to the Lockheed Lightnings in action for the last few days now were shuttling through the Philippine skies. Lt. Gen.
