URGES REUNION OF ALL

LONDON, August 12.-Reunion OF
churches Is urged In an appeal to call
Christian people" framed by bishops
or tho Anglican Church, who at
tended the recent conference ut Lam
beth, which was made public today in
connection with "a statement by tho
Archbishop OF Canterbury covering
tho work of the conference. The
scope of the appeal. according to the
archbishop's statement. Is limited
only "by tho limits OF tho Christian
churches of the world"
ihe appeal Is directed to the
.T'hodoN churches OF the east and TO
thc great Roman communion OF the
west. no less than To tho free
churches which have grown 10 ma
turity among the Anglo S;A1 eli races.
us scope IL 80 wide that there can be
no doubt large numbers of the bishops
VINO issued IL had In mind those OF
our kith and kin in the great prcsby-
tcrian. Methodist, Baptist and Con
ErcSationhl communions with whom,
although they are separated from thn
church. tho Anglican communion has
so much In common. both In faith and
in practice"
Describing tho plan OF union. the
bodied here is new, even revolution
nry. The plans OF reunion whereby
inc Anglican Church might hope to
aDsorb other communions are frankly
abandoned. What is needed is "A new
structure. simple enough TO begin al
once, but large enough to include
all"
The bishops summon all tho Chris
tians To look, not for nm extended
Anglican Church hut for a truly
catholic church OF the future, to
which every church should bring lis
own contribution of life and oreani-
Zation No loose federation OF in
dependent churches is contaminated
but rather real organic unity based
on fundamentals. In which there
should he ample room for groups with
their own outlook and for methods
such as John Wesley originally con.
tcmpiatcd.
Tho statement points out 'univcr.
sal ministry" as the chief need and
ciaims that "cpiscopate is tho ono
try"
Divisions among Christian pcoplcs
arc dcplorcd in the opening statement
OF the appeal. They are attributed 10
set-wili, ambition and lack OF
charity. the bishops conrcssiny frank.

And with people with things-whcn we
