DEATH OF REV. A.
POWELi, NOTED
LIBERAL, DEEPLY FELT
WASHINGTON (ANP) —
Washingtonians this week movim
the death of one of the nation’s
greatest liberals, the I’ev. A. Pow¬
ell Davies, pastor of All Soule
Unitarian Church. Or. Davies, who
was a native of Birkenhead, Eng¬
land, came to All Souls Church
Id year,-; ago, before integration !
was popular in Washington. This!
church, which has now grown to
a membership of 1400, is non-tie
nominiational and interracial.
In his last sermon, the prom¬
inent minister spoke on “The
Meaning of Little Rock. ’
In the course of his sermon, the
Unitarian minister said the Pres¬
ident “is not a guileful man. What¬
ever his faults, he is not a man
of unusual cunning. In this re¬
spect he must rely on other peo¬
ple. Fajius outwitted the Presi¬
dent’s advisers as well as the
President.” lie pointed out that
nothing came of the President’s
conference with the Arkansas
Governor at Newport, It. L, ex¬
cept “whitewashed notoriety for
Gov. Faubus.”
Dr. Davies concluded with the
fact that “the eyes of the world
have been on Little Rock, not on
Hungary or Syria. People of all
races and many nations have seen
the American betrayal of Ameri¬
can principles.”
The 55-year-old minister was
not ill, but died suddenly from
a heart attack Thursday, while in
his study. Horn of Welsh parents,
he received his education in Liver¬
pool High School and London Uni¬
versity. He always spoke to an
overflowing congregation of all
races. He was critical of the “old
time religion” laboring under the
theory! that many people devote
themselves to keeping out of hell
in the 5 next world but do nothing
to cure the hell of Ihis one.
Among his parishioners were
such notables as Supreme Court
Justice Harold Burton, Sen. Paul
Douglas and Winfred Averholser,
director of St. Elizabeth Hospital.

toniai congrSJUkTbn. yjaus ie also members of his

gerald, Ga. He also asked the
