CHRISTIAN UNITY
PROGRESS BEING MADE. , THE KING GRATIFIED. (United Press Association.) (By Electric Telegraph—Copyright.) LONDON, February 12. (Received Feb. 13, at 5.5 p.m.) Thd® King, in a message to the Convocation in reply to an address which was presented at the close of 1929, said, iie rejoiced to observe the spirit which was animating it with reference to the difficulties associated with the revision of the forms for the ordering of public worship. “ May the continued exercise of forbearance and patience render possible, under God’s guidance, a solution of this grave and perplexing problem. I fervently join in the prayers for increasing the influence of religion and a renewal of faith. The progress which is being made with the promotion-of Christian unity is gratifying and I trust that the Lambeth Conference will contribute a further advance in the continuous development of measures for securing international peace. It has given me profound satisfaction that the agreements which have been made rest on the sure foundations of the hearts and the minds of the peoples. By strengthening this spiritual basis the churches the world can give incalculable assistance to , the governments, enabling still further progress to be made.”
