Poles Not Attending Church Congress
(N.Z. Press Association—Copyright) , „ VIENNA, August 11. Dr. Karol Kotula, Bishop of the Lutheran Church of Poland, declared over Radio Warsaw last night that he could not attend the forthcoming Congress of the World Council of Churches because the United States authorities had refused visas to Polish delegates. Dr. Kotula denied that the Polish authorities had not allowed him to go to the United States for the Congress. He and the Dean of the Protestant Theological Faculty at Warsaw University, Dr. Wictor Niemczyk, had planned to attend the Congress at Evanston, Illinois between August 15 and 31, the Warsaw Radio said.
