DEAN INGE DISOWNED
BISHOPS TAKE ACTION ANTI-AMERICAN WRITING (Australian and N.Z Press Association) (United Service) Reed. 10.30 a.m. LONDON, Sunday. The “Weekly Dispatch” says that 13 Anglican bishops, and also the leading divines of other churches, have disowned Dean Inge. They -recall a passage in the dean’s book which offended America, and which said, “European nations, in certain contingencies, might combine to draw Shylock’s teeth.” The clergy point out that an American senator, Mr. A. R. Robinson, expressed the opinion that Dean Inge correctly interpreted the feelings of the great mass of the English people. The signatories, including the Bishop of Durham and the Archbishop of Liverpool, declare: “The passage does not represent our views, and, in our opinion, does not represent the views of any number of Englishmen.”
