Two More Resignations From Russian Society
SYDNEY, August 23. Bishop Cranswick, of the Australian Board ot Missions, and the Rev. W. G. Coughlaif, of the Church of England Christian Social Order Movement, today resigned from the Australian Russian Society. In a letter to the society, Mr Coughlan said: “There has come to my notice evidence that convinces me that whatever, the society may have been in its early stages it has recently come so much under Communist Party control that I can no longer remain a member.” The letter added that for almost a fortnight the society had not answered Mr Coughlan’s request that it should repudiate any association with an attack made upon the Rev. E. J. Davidson by the Communist paper, Tribune, for resigning his chairmanship of the society. Bishop Cranswick gave Mr Coughlan his written resignation to send to the society if necessary. After conversations with Mr Davidson, both resignations were sent in.
