LATE EDITION
PRAYER ROOK REVISION. SYMPATHY WITH PRIMATE. A MESSAGE FROM AUSTRALIA
(UNITED PRESS ASSOCIATION —BY ELECTRIC
TELEGRAPH—COPYRIGHT.) (AUSTRALIAN PRESS ASSOCIATIONUNITED SERVICE.) Received. 2.20 p.m. to-day. LONDON, April 26. Presiding over a full attendance of 711 churchmen, iu the final stage of the Prayer Book revision, the Primate read a message from Australia signed by two archbishops, 17 diocesan bishops and 800 clergy, sympathising with him in the rejection of the last book. He added that he had been strangely taunted with forgetting the churchmen overseas. His reply was simple: He had been in close touch with the churchmen within the Empire throughout the discussions. He contrasted these rather wearisome proceedings with the procedure formerly adopted, when a few responsible and capable men completed the- task in at month or two.
