ATTITUDE OF FREE CHURCHES. RESERVATION OF SACRAMENTS CAUSE ALARM. (BY CABLE—PRESS ASSOCIATION" —COPYRIGHT.) (AUSTRALIAN AND N.Z. CABLE ASSOCIATION.) (Received September 21st, 7.40 p.m.) LOXDOX, September 20. The Federal Council of Evangelical Free Churches, replying to a request from a Parliamentary sub-committee for its views on the Revised Prayer Book, sent a resolution which it had carried, stating, "certain features of the book arouse serious apprehension, particularly the proposals anent the reservation of the sacramental elements, especially in view of the abuses at present widely prevalent in tlie Anglican Church. The final attitude of the Free Churches will be determined by the adequacy of specific guarantees given by the Anglican authorities, limiting noi. only what is permissible, but what is actually _ permitted in the Church of England."
