Deny Miracles
THE Archbishops of Canter-
bury and York, in answer to
a petition by 8,000 clergy, have stated that in their judgment a clergyman must uphold the Virgin Birth and the Resurrec- tion in his public teaching.

The Archbishops statement' published by Dr. B. 0. F. Heywood, Bishop of Ely, in his diocesan gazette. Dr. Heywood, and the Bishops of Chelmsford and St. Albany, were the leaders of a deputation' which petitioned the Upper Houses of the Convocations of Canterbury and York to give an assurance that historical clauses of the Creed mean what they say and nothing else.
The Convocations did not give this assurance, and the 1,000 clergy up- pealed to the Archbishops.
The Archbishops' reply is contain- ed in a letter written by Dr. Lang to. Father W. B. O'Brien, Superior- General of the Society of St. John the Evangelist. In he says:
"The Archbishop of York and I informed your deputation that, speaking for ourselves, we considered that such denial [of clauses in the Creed could not be legitimately made by any priest of the Church in his public teaching,
