The Kikuyu Agreement.
BISHOP OF ZANZIBAR'S DISSENT. PI EADS FOR DEFINITE SETTLEMENT. London, February 16. The Bishop of Zanzibar, in a two column letter addressed to the Archbishop of Canterbury, explains his reasons fur his dissent from the Primate's decision regarding the Kikuyu controversy over the question of open communion, and argues that toe formal charges were intended to be submitted to the Primate officially only if after a full inquiry the two bishops refused to accept the Church's judgment. He concludes by pleading for a definite settlement of the controversy. The letter declares that the consultative body of bishops is likely to be regarded as a prejudiced committee of inquiry. "Some uf the members represent bishops who have already accepted the policy taken at Kikuyu, while the Primate, who has already prejudiced the case in hia answer, will be, as chairman, both judge and foreman of the jury."
