Orthodox Russians

CHICAGO, May 28--The Council
of Bishops of the Russian Orthodox
Church in North America has re-
jected a proposal of the Patriarch
of Moscow to return to full COM
munion with the Mother Church
in Russia.
The 10 bishops also decided to
postpone a call for an all-American
council meeting to elect a new head
of the North American Church,
which embraces approximately one
million communicates. They urged
their members to continue their
church activities.
Bishop Benjamin of Pittsburgh,
who announced the decision, said
the Moscow proposal would have
placed their followers in 1853
churches under the legal and spir-
itual Jurisdiction of Patriarch
Alexis of Stalingrad, newly-elected
titular head of the world church.

Part Of Jones Act Proyis-
ions Waived for Addi-
tionaI so Days

Upon written recommendation OF
the Administrator of the War Ship
ping Board, Herbert =. Castor, as
Acting Secretary of the Treasury,
has approved the waving OF coast
wise shipping laws to the extent
necessary to permit transportation
of passengers on Canadian vessels
between points in Alaska, and to
permit the transportation OF mer-
chandise on Canadian vessels be-
tween points in Canada and Skag-
way, Alaska, as portion OF the
transportation of that merchandise
between points on the Pacific Coast
of the continental United States,
and Skagway, Alaska.
The order is made effective only
during the period between June
/. 1945 and July 81, 1915, inclusive.
The transportation of any passenger
or any merchandise on Canadian
vessel under the waiver must be
completed on or before midnight OF
July 81.
Acting Secretary Gaston's order,
dated May ri, 1945. was received
here today by Collector of Customs,
James ]. Connors. Declared to be
deemed necessary in the conduct OF
the war" the order, to some extent,
answers protests from Southeast
Alaska communities to the terrll-
nation of suspension OF the Jones
Act, which was previously ordered
to 90 back into full effect after May
81, this year That such a recon-
mendation had been made by the
War Shipping Administration was
revealed here some days ago by
Sccreary of Alaska Lew M. Williams,
acting for Governor Ernest Gruen-
ing and was followed by lengthy pro-
tests from the three ship companies
serving Southeast Alaska; The
Alaska Steamship Company, North
land Transportation Company and
Alaska Transportation Company.
The order falls short of extension
of the full waiver of the Jones Act
asked by civic organizations and au-
thorities, m that it does not permit
Canadian vessels to carry freight to
and from all Alaska cities, and is for
only an additional two months. Eff
forts are continuing to secure a
further full suspension of the Jones
Act until such time as American
i ship companies have demonstrated
their ability adequately to serve this
area.
