IN AMERICAN PULPITS
ADMIRATION FOR BRITISH DIVORCE STILL A DISABILITY. Received Dec. 14, 9.50 p.m. NEW YORK, Dec. 13. The majority of views expressed in the pulpits of all denominations in the United States indicate the opinion that Edward should have chosen the Throne rather than Mrs. Simpson. Most registered satisfaction at the public demonstration that divorce was still a disability. Bishop Manning, in the Cathedral of Saint John the Devine, criticised Edward and added: “We say to our brethren in Britain they have our understanding and sympathy as web as our deep admiration for the way in which they met an unprecedented crisis in history.”
