Cleric Sees Pulpit No Place for Politics Pastor of Thriving Queens Church Lays Growth to Liberal Approach to Religion A minister has as much right as any one to his private views on such matters as politics, but should save them for the lecture platform, believes the Rev. Frederick Reustle. pastor of the growing Van Wyck Avenue Congregational Church Airplane Big Aid in Spreading Church Influence, Cleric Writes of the harbor.

GROWING CHURCH The Van Wyck Avenue Congregational Church in Richmond Hill, which is expanding under the liberal ministry of its pastor, the Rev. Frederick Reustle. Site of Monitor Birth it Van wyes Ave. ana iuju ou, Richmond Hill. Mr.

Reustle contends that the rapid growth of this church, of which he has been in charge for the last six years, is due to the fact that "our approach to religion i is a liberal one." "I need not dwell on the grosser abuses ot the ministry and point out that they are certainly not the proper functions of the minister," asserts Mr. Reustle. "But there are more serious concerns that are equally as out of place in the pulpit as these grosser vices. I refer to converting the pulpit into a political platform, a i scientific forum, a literary' ros- trum, or still worse, the deadly monotony of an old-fashioned, stupid, empty and thoughtless i sermonizer. A minister has as much views, right as anyone to piivate should save them for Dozes With Inactivity Ghosts of Former Wars Prowl Vacant Continental Iron Works in Greenpoint Once the scene of great activity during three wars, the eight-acre tract of the Continental Iron Works on the Green-but mint u-ntprfrnnt u-hprp the famous Union irnnplnrt Monitor 1 I The Rev.

The slip facilities of the legion clubhouse on "lure vessels entered the works has Wanser Ave. This was announced b'n partially filled in. "What the invention of printing was to the people in bringing the Bible to them, the invention of the airplane is to the Church, in that it places Christian planning on a planetary basis.

We can think now in terms of continents instead of being content with counties and countries." This is the outstanding conclu- sion of the Rev. Dr. Samuel Trex-ler. president of United Lutheran Synod of New York, in his latest bock. "A Pastor Wings Over South America," published by the Muhlenberg Press of Philadelpnia.

The little volume of 113 pages Is virtually a day-by-day record of I the plane trips and boat trips that Dr. Trexler made this Summer inspecting the outlying mission posts of his synod below the Equator. He is also president of the Board of Foreign Missions of the United Lutheran Church in America. The trip involved 6.000 miles of ship travel and 9 000 miles of plane travel. "I have seen," Dr.

Trexler "pure religion practiced in the churches of South America, religion if not superior at least the equal of that of our own congregations in North America. While the Latin mind is not usually expected to derive from the Church the idea of service, yet our churches in South America produce Christians who are zealous in tneir ciceas oi love and mercy." "Tf nnv nnp Vine the feeiin? filp clergyman wrote at another poirjt, "that the Evangelical Church is un- welcome in these countries. I have evidence to the contrary. The missionaries are received by children and adults as they would be received in any other section of the world, by some with an eagerness that comes from long waiting, by others with an indifference that indicates an interest in other channels. But the average South American is as open to the Christian message as proclaimed by our Evangelical Church as is the average North American." Spring Garden Tour Goes by Steamboat The last word In novel, springtime garden tours is the steamboat crui.se to Natchez which has just been announced by the American Express.

It combines all the romance and lure of Old Man River with a carefully planned garden tour and visits to the interesting old mansions and Southern gardens of Natchez Mississippi.

There will be time to attend the Annual Confederate Ball Tableaux and to enjoy a special program of Negro spirituals in one of the nearby churches. After Natchez, stops, are at Vicksburg.

Phoenix Plays Host To Western Open Phoenix, Jan. 31 Although sports events have been cancelled right and left all over the nation, the Western Open Golf Tournament at Phoenix, Feb. 6-7-8, goes on as scheduled.

College Medical Group Girls who have gone to Ireland and other foreign lands with the boys fighting under the Stars and Stripes are only the vanguard of the corps of registered nurses needed by the Army. An appeal for 50 more nurses to complete the personnel of the 79th General Hospital, being organized by the Lorg Island College of Medicine for active service in one of the war zones within the next few months, was issued yesterday by Dr. Jean A. Curran, dean of the college. During the past few months, Dr.

Curran revealed, 24 additional nurses, members of the First Reserve of the Red Cross Nursing Service, have enrolled In this base hospital unit, bringing the total to 70 nurses. I'nits in Service With six hospital units already called to duty to serve the country's armed forces in the various the aters of including the one i from Fort Knox, which has just reached Ireland, it is urgent that recruiting of Brooklyn's only unit be completed at once, Dr. Curran said. Other units now on active duty include those of the Harvard University School of Medicine, the Western Reserve School of Medicine, the Washington School of Medicine, and the School of Medicine of the University of Pennsylvania. Two other units, those of the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Columbia University and St.

Luke's Hospital, both of which are to be mobile units under tents, to serve largely as casualty stations, are now in camp and preparing for duty. According to Dr. Curran, the units being organized by the schools of medicine throughout the country are to be chiefly general hospitals. These general hospitals, unlike the base hospitals of the first World War, will be permanently organized in definite locations in the zone of operations for the duration of the war. When enrollment has been completed, Brooklyn's 79th General Hospital will have a staff of 55 doctors, who will be commissioned as officers in the United States Army Medical Corps, 120 nurses and 500 enlisted men who will be assigned to the general hospital by the War Department to assist in its main-tainance.

6,000 Skiers Glide The Laurentians Six thousand skiers were carried by the railway's Laurentian division from last Friday through Sunday, A. O. Seymour, general tourist agent of the Canadian Pacific Railroad in Montreal, reported yesterday. Places served include Shawbridge, Piedmont, Ste. Agathe, St.

Jovite, Ste. Adele, Mont Tremblant and other popular Laurentian ski resorts.

The Junk obat owners' licenses were not rene'wed on Oct.

31 as a result ot requests to the Department of Licenses by the Coast Guard and Navy. Skippers of the small craft, which ranged from 15 to 30 feet in length and were powered by small marine engines, would chug out to Incoming freighters in the early morning hours to haggle over waste products of all types. From the sailors and officers of the freighters, the sea-going junk collectors would buy rope, canvas, bags, compasses and whatever curios sailors cared to sell. The police harbor squad never had any love for the Junk boats. This dislike may have been born during the prohibition days, when mysterious boats sped through the night on bootlegger's missions.

It was true, however, that most of the rum-runners were fast craft and that the Junk boats crawl through the waters like the horse-drawn wagons of the land junk dealers. Police and Coast Guard were always conscious of the fact that the Junk boat men knew every part ot the harbor and that they were excellent sailors. At night the junk boats used to tie up in the basin at the foot of 29th St. and at other wharves between 19th and 29th Sts. Packing houses along the waterfront used to buy the odds and ends brought in by the Junk men.

Protest Revocation Spokesmen for the Junk boat men complained bitterly when the permits, which cost $5 a year, were not renewed. It was then that Capt. John S. Baylis of the Coast Guard suggested that the Junkmen might be used to collect refuse from ships and piers in the port. It was also suggested that the junkmen be used as harbor "taxlcab" operators.

Propose Harbor Vigilantes Friends of the marine Junkmen proposed that the 48 boats be organized as a vigilant flotilla under command of the Navy to aid in harbor protection. These friends declared that the Junkmen were loyal American citizens and were excellent, intelligent sailors. The sea-going junkmen also complained bitterly of some of the sport power boats, which they claimed were operated by "irresponsible playboys," and which used much more gasoline than the humble craft. However, most of the small boats in the waters surrounding the city have been enlisted in Navy or Coast Guard patrol work. Several of the harbor Junkmen plan to join the Navy, where they believe their natuical skill can be immediately utilized.

74 Ski Tows in Use In New York State Albany, Jan. 31 The ski tow an invention that takes the hard work out of skiiing is busier than ever this season at New York State Winter resorts.

There are painting, sculpture and dancing classes within his church's activities. Since Mr. Reustle resigned as assistant rector of St.

George's Church. Manhattan, and accepted the call to the pulpit of the Van Wyck Ave. church, he has accepted Into confirmation 145 new members. His ideas on what he terms the "minister's place in society" are very definite. "If the minister's place In society is not being a handyman, a pet lamb, a cast of gloom, an idol, a political puppeteer, a what is his place?" asked Mr.

Reustle. "I venture to say that the first thing required, above all others, is that the minister today should be a philosopher. A deep study of philosophy brings one to grips with the fundamentals of life. Philosophy strips off all that Is partial and temporary' arid accidental and gets down to the core of reality. "The Van Wyck Ave.

Congregational Church was founded in Dunton on Oct. 1. 1894. in what was then a farming community. While it underwent great external changes, they were not exceeded by the strain and difficulties of the external life of the church.

It has risen triumphantly above adversity and is moving forward without fear, without guile, and with pure purpose and manly hearts."

The Continental Iron Works went out of business in 1928 when the heirs decided not to continue operations after the death of the founders. The machinery was dismantled and removed and nearly all of the buildings torn down except those at the corner of West and Quay occupied by the George Douglas For some years after the plant closed, William Jennings, a veteran employe, remained on the premises in the lone job of clerk and watchman, but he has since died. The property is now handled through the real estate office of W. E. Coy-kendal at 26 John Manhattan, agent for the Rowland estate.

Founded in 1859 The Continental Iron Works was founded in 1859 and soon after the outbreak of the Civil War was awarded the contract for construction of the hull of the original Monitor. This work was done so quickly that, 100 days later, 'the ironclad warship was fitted out at the Brooklyn Navy Yard and reached Hampton Roads in time to meet the Confederate vessel Merri-mac and defeat her in the historic conflict. On the successful outcome of this battle the Navy promptly authorized construction of a number of vessels of the Monitor type, of which eight were built at the Greenpoint works. But shipbuilding fell off after the Civil War and the company turned to constructing gas holders, mains and gas-producing machinery. The firm was one of the pioneers in welding.

Made War Materials The Continental Iron Works was incorporated in 1887 and -with the outbreak of the Spanish-American War again turned to the manufacture of warship parts and munitions. During the World War these activities were resumed on a still larger scale, and the company specialized in the production of depth bomb casings. After 1918, and until it ceased operations, the plant manufactured principally buoys, gas pipes and water mains.
