CATHEDRAL PROJECT
WELLINGTON'S NEED CENTENNIAL EFFORT? (Per Prcsa Association.} WELLINGTON, last night. "Please do not misunderstand me if I say that when visitors come m Wellington, I feel I almost have to apologise to them for the Clinch of England," said the Bishop, of Wellington, the Rl. Rev. 11. St. Barbe Holland, in urging before the Wellington Diocesan Synod the need for a cathedral.
"They see fine permanent buildings growing up on all sides to express strength and stability of our corporate life." he added. "They see the city quickly awakened to a sense of dignity and greatness in its political, commercial, and business life, but they see nothing lo suggest the majesty of God in a community that is expressing in its buildings the greatness of man. and nothing to suggest the permanence and eternity of God in a world that is characterised by change."
He suggested that the cathedral project would be a fitting centennial effort.
