World Church Conference
Mission To Germany Regarded With Scepticism
Berlin, July 24
In a statement concerning the message despatched by the World Church Conference at Oxford to the German Evangelical Church, the intention of the Conference to send a mission to Germany la regarded with a great deal of scepticism though the scheme is neither encouraged nor condamned.
It is pointed out, with' a reference to Germany's past ex- 'periences of the system of International control, that so far It is not apparent who will be chosen to partake in the mission, or what it will set out to accomplish...
It is "put on record, however, that the tone. of the resolutions passed by the Oxford, Conference betray sentiments of erimity to the German Reich,

A message from London reveals that the protes, by the German Free Church delegates to the message to be sent from Oxford to the German Evangelical Church has been followed by others, - cluding one from the Russian Or- thodox Church abroad.
The latter's declaration contains one passage as follows: "Far pe it from us to withold our sympathy from all Christian brothers who are suffering for their faith..
"But we" must rise in protest when in this connexion the Roman Catholic Church in Germany is mentioned as a Church which has suffered for the sake of its faith."
