DIVIDED CHURCHMEN.
"DANGEROUS CONTROVERSY."
ARCHBISHOP DISAPPOINTED.
REQUEST FOR CA TRUCE.
Times-Sydney Sun Special Cable.
London, January 4. A lettep. was last week addressed by Mr. Lan Malcolm (Unionist M.P. for Croydon) to the Archbishop of Canterbury (Dr. Davidson) suggesting that the latter might intervene tc stop the dangerous controversy in the press concerning open communion '« Last Africa
Or Davi isovi h re.-lvd ' nire;y jHare, your ftel'i..,.- co-'i-m •ring the mischief a.ia .g '.cm the exuberant and sometimes heated controversy. My disappointment is great. My efforts to expedite the Bishop of Zanzibar's return have been fruitless, and I am at present without specific information as to the exact request he desires to place before me. It would cause me genuine satisfaction if the controversialists would lay down their pens and await such foi.-al action as I must take when dealing properly with what is referred to me."
DETERIVW-D PROTESTANTS. HIGH CHURCH ACTIVITIES. London, January 4. The Tablet (a Roman Catholic organ) says the High Churchmen ha: attracted so much atfr"itioi' of late years that it was becoming easy 'o think they were in a fair way to become the dominating party in the Anglican Church.
Kika; * has, however, revealed a solid body of 'jjtermined Protestants, and it would seem from the att",ude of the secular papers that the great Protestant heart of the nation is much less affected by High Church activities than has appeared to be the case.
