THE ARCHBISHOP AGAIN
ON THE EX-KING. SILENCE NOW BEST. Thankfulness For Calmness Of Empire. Press Association—Copyright. Received 10.55 a.m. London, Jan. 20. i The Archbishop of Canterbury, in opening the Convocation which tnet at Westminster Abbey for the first time in history, declared that only a year ago the Convocation expressed its loyalty to King Edward, whose reign, though so full of promise unexpectedly ended at his own choice. Silence was now best about the circumstances leading to it, but it was only right to record thankfulness for the calmness and steadiness with which the people of England and the Empire met the crisis. Canon Rogers of Birmingham decleared that many would probably not agree to allusions to the abdication of Edward being made jn-JJie address to the King to be read by the Primate. It was agreed, therefore, to postpone consideration of the addresq in order to enable members of the Convocation to study it. ’.
