UNION OF CHURCHES.
ANGLICAN COMPREHENSIVENESS. ROMANIST TO RATIONALIST. Sty Tuiecranh— Press Association—Cooirlebi. (Rec. June 3, 10.15 p.m.) Adelaide, June 3. Tho Australasian Methodist Conference discussed the report of the committee appointed at last conference to deal with the question of union of the churches. It stated that the delay had been caused through having to await answers to questions submitted to the Lambeth Conference, and recommended that the committees be reappohvted on linos similar to those of 1907 with a view to the preparation of a more complete basis of union and to foster generally the spirit of union. The committee expressed gratification at . tho progress made towards securing an agreement both as regards doctrine and policy. In the course of a general discussion the Rev. Mr. Bcale (New South Wales) declared that a union which would embrace the Anglican Church was not worth praying for, and not worth seeking or having. Let Anglicanism ■ first unite itself and become evangelical. They could not think of union with a church including on one hand a Romanist section and on the other hand a Rationalist section. . • . Tho committee's report was adopted.
