NEW BISHOP OF LONDON
PROTEST AGAINST CONFIRMATION London August 21 The Natipnal Union of Protestants is opposing the confirmation tomorrow of Dr Wand ns Bishop of London. The Union in a protest to the vicargeneral. alleges : “As an extreme Anglo-Catholic, Dr-Wand is not a fit person for the position. His religion is not the religion of the church of England as established by laws" The protest adds; Dr Wand failed to carry out his declaration in his form er diocese of Bath and Wells, that he would banish all erroneous and strange doctrines contrary to the Church of England. Although Dr Wand is prepared to give a similiar undertaking when he is consecrated Bishop of Lonlon there is no reason to expect that he will be more faithful to such a promise than In his former diocese."
