Anglicans to join unity commission

=

LCNDON (NC). — The Church cf England agreed at its general synod here to participate fully in a proposed permanent national commission to investigate the possibilities of union between all the main Christian Churches in Great Brita;n. The proposal was accepted by a show of hands after it was introduced by Archbishop Michael Ramsey of Canterbury, the Primate of the Church of England. . But the synod also showed displeasure at some activities of the World Council of Churches by voting a nominal cut of about S2,400 in its 1975 grant to the Geneva-based ecumenical body. The funding cut was a token expression of disapproval of the council's financial support for certain liberation movements which are active guerilla groups. In voting to support and send representatives to the national commission for Cfr!rch unity. the Anglicans joined the Catholic bishops of England and Wales.
