Christianity's Tendency to

Visiting Anglican, Bishop
The progress of the rela

unity in, the widely-split realm
of Christianity is a "thrilling
thing," to the Rt. Rev. Plump
ton Wilson, Anglican Bishop
of Chichester, in England.".'
' The young prelate a visitor
in Medford yesterday, - dis
cussed this ecumenical mover
ment, and a dozen other sub
jects, at an informal luncheon
gathering of a score of Med
ford and Grants Pass business,
civic and religious leaders. :
i He is in Oregon at the ex
press invitation- of Bishop
James W. F.- Carman of the
Episcopal Diocese of Oregon.
fine . Anglican church, or
"Church of England," is the
British . equivalent of the
American Episcopal church.)
The invitation was extended
asi result of the world-wide
assembly of Bishops of the
Anglican communion at Lam
beth Palace in London last
year, which Bishop Carman
attended.
Yesterday's luncheon was
arranged by the Rev. George
R. V. Bolster, rector of St.
Mark's parish here, and dean
of the southern convocation of j
the-diocese.
Ecumenical" Movement
"- Bishop Wilson termed it a
scandal" that Christians, who
essentially are all working to
ward the ; same : end,: should
have become so serious divid
ed over 1 the , years,' and ex
pressed., his gratification : that
the ecumenical 'movement,
which began j only some 50
years ago, principally in areas
of mission- work where theo
logical divisions were less im
portant,: has at last gained
momentum.
He cited the United Church
of India, and others in the
far east, as examples of dif
fering denominations rejoin
ing in a common communion,
both '. in theology and as to
aims and activities.
. In. England, he said, there
is a progressive understanding
between the churches that
there shall be mutual respect,
and efforts to unite in practi
cal, goals. He spoke of the
World Council of Churches,
and its counterpart in differ
ent, countries, as evidence of
this progress. Mutual under
standing, and friendly contact,
he said, are the first steps to
ward a' broader and deeper
union. -. - '
Exchange Complements
1 -In England 50 years. ago, lie
said, 'the various denomina
tions exchanged brickbats;
today they exchange compli
ments. This," the Bishop, indi
cated, is a measure of. the
progress in a short half -cen
tury. .. .
Pope John XXIII, Bishop
Wilson indicated, is greatly
admired in European church
circles, non-Catholic as .well
as Catholic, but jt is not yet
known how his attitudes will
affect a truly world-wide ecu
menical trend. But, he said,
he and his colleagues have
felt encouraged by the Pope's
actions and statements so far.
; Turning to the rather widely-publicized
downturn : in
membership and attendance
in the Church of England in
recent years, the -Bishop
granted that we have been
down in the trough," but
pointed out that gradually in
terst in Anglican church af
fairs is returning in England.
"Between the two World
Wars," he said, "a generation
grew up which one could say
had been shocked out of its
faith and this is the generation
which: are the parents of to
day." ; ;
But he. pointed out that
there' is a new stirring of in

England, and that both young

heritage than" can be offered
by Godlessness and a trust

gy. There is a spirit of inquiry,
he declared, and this brooks
well for the future.
Art Revival .
As a corrolary, he cited the
revival of art, both " secular
and religious, in England, as
evidence that people are look
ing more and more to the "in
visible, world" of. the spirit.
The "gap" inihe active min
istry,': occasioned by 10 years
of war-and recovery, is now
being overcome,- Bishop Wil
son said, both from the ranks
of young men, and from older,
more mature men, who are
turning to things of the spirit.
There was a lively discus
sion of education, and the rel
ative merits of a scientific and
technological education, need
ed in i the Sputnik -related
world of today, and one in the
classics and liberal arts. The
Bishop, himself a former
school master in the classical
tradition, said the ideal would
be for each student to receive
training in both-f or scientists
"to be civilized" by liberal
arts and the classics, and for
humanities students to "get
their feet on the ground"" with
a knowledge , of the world
around us.
He granted this is difficult,
and is a matter of available
time, but he declared it is an
ideal which should be striven
for. ;
He said, in response to ques
tions, that he feels Commun
ism has had an influence on
the resurgence of interest in
spiritual matters, but more
because it has "shown, up the
issue" of right and wrong than
because of any material chal
lenge to the west. "The chal
lenge of Communism is a spir
itual challenge," he said, "and
can be met only by spiritual
strength." .
Practical Problems
...In, a general discussion of
Communism and the west, he
discussed ,some of the prac
tical, as well as theoretical,
problems which must be faced
- those of underprivileged
countries which sometimes
see the choice, not as between
freedom and authoritarian
ism, but between Communism
and hunger: - f j
The British de facto recog
nition of Red China - he de
scribed, not as approval, , but
as a recognition of the facts of
the matter: the fact that the
Communist regime is in con
trol of that nation. And, he
declared, no nation is "all
good" or "all bad," and that
there is less friction with a
nation one trades with, than
with one with whom there is
trade rivalry.
The Bishop, who is a mem
ber of the British House of
Lords by virtue of his eccles
iastical rank, saw portions of
the Rogue Valley yesterday
afternoon, spoke at a" gather
ing at St. Mark's church last
night, and was to leave with
Bishop Carman and Mr, Bol
ster this morning for Rose
burg and Coos Bay.

Editor's Note: This week is Na

ployment of the physically handi

in observance of the week.- Sinders

The President of the United

set Oct. 4 through 10 as Na

Posters are being displayed

When observing these posters,
take a second to stop and
think the American econ
omy of today is based on abil
ity; ability to produce where
in "my business can I utilize
the abilities of 'a physically
handcapped. ; -. '....
I n d u s t r y must take the
same positive action internal
ly that citizens have .had to
take on an international basis
to . keep the country, strong,
and to do this we must look
to abilities abilities of the
individual as well as abilities
of the nation.
A physical handicap is not
a job handicap where the in
dividual is properly placed.
The handicapped" are not
looking for charity nor to re
ceive extra special job consid
eration; but they do feel they
should be given equal consid
eration with the non-handicapped
to compete for work
without discrimination.
This group does not ask for
special consideration but for
equal consideration.- It has

matter of classification with
"Catholic, Protestant, Jewish,
women's and other groups.
"The movie code has not
changed so much. It is the
subject material in books and
other creative works." .
Complainants Change
Johnston said that the same
people who complained a few
years ago that movies were
not adult enough were, now
complaining that they were
too adult.
. "Classification is a difficult
matter," he said. "First, who
is to enforce it; we don't own
our theaters any . more. Sec
ond, in other countries of the
world there are laws by which
theaters would lose their li
censes if children were to see
such films-even with adults.
"In this country, there are
no federal laws governing the
matter. The problem is, if we
take it upon ourselves to clas
sify movies, do we elicit the
kind of censorship . we have
been trying to avoid and fight
in various, states?"
. Johnston said : there., has
been criticism of motion pic
tures . in some instances, for
their adult subject material.
Many Films Imported
"But," he said, "we must
remember, we imported about
760 films, and we produced
only 218 in Hollywood. In all,
some 288 pictures got the
Movie Code's Seal of Appro
val and most of the criticism
was directed at those pictures
without the seal."
Johnston said that on a re
cent trip to France, certain
high members of the de
Gaulle government were con
cerned about whether some
exported French films were
giving a 1 "false picture" of
the way of life in their coun
try.". "But I -am personally op
posed to censorship in any
form," . Johnston said. "The
abuses and difficulties, that it
brings with it are greater than
those incurred without censorship."
