Wellington Anglican Diocesan Synod
Telegraph. Press Association. Copyright. Wellington, Dec. 1. The Wellington Anglican Diocesan Synod opened this afternoon. In hit address at St. Paul's Pro Cathedral this i evening Bishop Walht made a lengthy j reference te the work of the Lambeth ' Conference. He spoke in favor of international arbitration, pointing ont that, whilst reference of dispntes to such a court might not end in quarrel, it would certainly giva opportunity for reflection by both parties. Lambeth Conference he said, encouraged men to familiarise themselves in time of peace with the possibilities and anvantages of arbitration, so that when the hour of anger came they might be prepared to consider whether recourse might not be had to a conrt of arbitration before submitting the issue to the arbitrament of the sword. He hoped in two years' time to ordain Melbourne and Chinese students for work amongst his fellow countrymen in Wellington. An offer from the Missions to the Seamen's Society in London for a lay reader to work amongst the sailors in Wellington had been accepted.
