Dr. Scadding Tells of Debate
on Religious Topics at
Lambeth Palace.
CHRISTIAN UNITY DESIRED
Sixty American Prelate Who At
tended Conference Praise High
ly Courtesy and Hospitality
of English People,
Bishop Scaddlnx has Just returned from
the Lambeth Conference, and at the re
quest of The Oregonlan has stated his
Impressions of that great event.
The Lambeth Conference is a gathering
of Archbishops. Bishops Metropolitan,
and other Bishops of the Holy Catholic
Church In full communion with the
Church of England, held every ten years
at Lambeth Palace under the presidency
of the Archbishop of Canterbury. The
bishops. 243 In number, met dally in con
ference, and took into consideration
various questions affecting the welfare
of God's peoplo and the work of the
church In divers parts or the world.
The Holy Eucharist was celebrated at
Westminster Abbey, and the discussions
commenced at 10:30 and lasted till 5 r.
XL. with an hour for luncheon. A buffet
luncheon was served daily In the large
hall and dining-room of Lambeth, and
the bishops were guests of the Archbishop
of Canterbury. These informal luncheons,
with the palace gardens to stroll In after
wards, gave the bishops good oppor
tunities to Inform themselves of fields
other than their own, and to know each
other personally.
Church World Force.
From the first to the last day the
bishops realised that the links which
bind them to the historic past are not
fetters upon the free and enterprising
spirit which Is essential to prepress. The
coming together or so many oisnops irora
all Darts of the earth emphasized the
fact, stated more than once, that the
church Is not a mere sect, but a worm
force; that It Is not a church for any
particular section, or race, or class of
people, but for the whole world and for
mankind.
The subjects proposed for consideration
were first brought before sessions xf the
whole conference, lasting for six full
days. Having been there set forth In
. outline, they were then referred to large
and carefully-chosen committees, and the
reports of these committees, with the
resolutions which they had prepared,
were subsequently laid before the con
ference, meeting again to consider them
in full session from July 27 to August 5.
Based on these reports and resolutions
an encyclical letter was prepared. It will
soon be printed for distribution, and will
be well worth reading by every thought
ful person. The sectarian spirit mas dis
tinctly absent, and the predominant
thought In the minds of the bishops was
of the church as ordained of God for the
service of mankind.
Subjects at Conference.
The subjects under discussion were
"The Reunion of Christendom." "Organ
isation in the Anglican Communion."
The Moral Witness of the Church to
the Problems of the Day," "Ministries of
Healing." "Religious Education." "Sup
ply and Training of the Clergy." "For
eign Missions." "The Faith and Modern
Thought." "Marriage Problems," etc.
In the wide and far-reaching discus
sion on all these burning questions there
was not the slightest Irritation or ex
pression of personal feeling. The bishops
spoke eacnestly and from deep convic
tion, but with the tenderest considera
tion for those with whom they might not
be able to agree. Never did the church
seem so large and roomy and truly cath
olic to me as It did during the compre-
,' henslve and Instructive debates In which
one oi me great scnoiars ana imeuec-
tusl giants of the English episcopate
, took part. Very remarkable and im
pressive was the tone of mind which pre
vailed In all the meetings. There was
no falntness of heart In facing great
questions, and no narrowness of mind In
dealing with them. The genuine wish
to work together swept away all thoughts
of partisanship, and brought Instead the
reality of mutual understanding. Minds
'and hearts were lifted up on high, and as
Ifrom the Mount of God men saw visions
.of service.
In the church's quickened sense of the
truth that only In the service of man-
kind can Its calling be fulfilled, we see.
beyond all clouds of difficulty and per-
Iplexlty. the clear shining of a great hope.
(For wherever men are living and need
help, whether the need be conscious or
unconscious, thither the Church of
Christ who took on Him the form of a
servant Is beckoned by the opportunity
of service.
Biblical Criticism.
With regard to the materialistic spirit
of the age and the modern criticism of
the Bible, the bishops concluded, after
careful Investigation, that materialism
has not today the power which It had
that science displays In an unprecedented
way the witness of nature to the wisdom
of God; that our thought and knowledge
lead up to the one profound but simple
truth of the unity of God and man
which was revealed In the Bon of Man.
our Lord Jesus Christ. So the bishops
testified to their belief that nothing has
shaken or can supersede that revelation.
The rightful freedom of thought and
criticism has not "taken away the Lord."
It has not hidden from us the power of
the inspiring spirit In the scriptures of
the Old Testament. It has. not shaken
the Interpretation of their master, and
his work which his disciples have left us
by the power of the same spirit In the
new. Rather we see things more clearly,
and in better proportion by the teaching
of God through the thought of later
days.
A high part of the service which the
Church of Christ has to render to men
is to train and guide them In the wor
ship nf God, and In particular In public
or common worship. The growing ex
perience of the Anglican communion in
different parts of the world and among
different races has pointed to the
necessity of the adaptation and enrich
ment of forma of service and worship
which have come down to us from other
times. Such adaptation and enrich
ment are advisable, and indeed essen
tial. If our church Is to meet the real
needs of living men and women today.
The bishops accordingly made certain
practical suggestions In this direction.
Social Responsibility.
Socialism, as socialism, was not at all
considered by the conference, but so
cial Interests were its constant pre
occupation. The bishops were glad to
notice the growing recognition of so
cial responsibility on the part of an in
creasing number of men and women
who devote themselves to philan
thropic, ethical and moral movements

workers accept fully the claims of the
Lord Jesus Christ; but the church wel
comes them as witnesses to that Ideal
of life which the world owes to the
teaching and Inspiration of our Lord,
and which the church has hut slowly
realized.
It was felt by all that fearlessly to
assist In the evolution of a Juster or
ganization of society, by the exercise
of her prophetic office, without tying
herself to any partisan politics. Is the
paramount duty of the Church of God.
With regard to Christian unity tne
resolution passed by the bishops may
seem cold In comparison with the
warmth of desires of many hearts. The
conference Indicated some lines of
definite practical approach to other
churches. Wherever the bishops were
sure that an advance would be wel
comed, they went far to meet their
brethren. Where they felt It necessary
to sound a note of warning they spoke
the truth In love. Their statement
reads:
"Wo cannot In the name of peace.
barter away those precious things of
which we have been made the stewards.
Neither can we wish others to be un
faithful to trusts which they hold no
less sacred. We must fix our eyes on
the church of the future to be adorned
with all the precious things, both theirs
and ours. We must constantly desire,
not compromise, but comprehension;
not uniformity, but unity.
The 60 American blRhops were of one
accord loud in their praise of the hos
pitality and courtesy of the English
people, and our presiding bishop has
voiced our appreciation In the English
and American papers. The King and
Queen received us at Buckingham Pal
ace. the Prince and Princess of Wales
gave a garden party at which the King
Hnd Queen were present. Ambassador
Reld gave a reception, and several
dinners. The Archbishop of Canter
bury and Mrs. Davidson entertained
every American bishop and his wife, or
daughters, for three or four days at
Lambeth Palace, and the Bishop of
London did the same at Fulham Palace.

London and In tho country, entertain

At present out-of-door services are
popular in England. ' At Shrewsbury I
had the privilege of addressing about
12.000 people In the park. This was
an open missionary service, and a brass
band led the multitude In singing
hymns. On several occasions at the
close of evening prayer and after I had
already preached in church, I Joined the
vicar and choir in an after-service in

All these parish churches and cathed
