We hope that the Archbishop of Canterbury will con- sider

carefully whether he should not immediately express his opinion. His decision would be a test for all loyal members of the Church. Unquestionably there will have to be give and take on all sides if the Church is to remain a truly national Church. In the interests of loyalty, concession, comprehensiveness, mutual toleration and willingness to respect the laws of the Church for the Church's own sake, an admirable work is being done by the Life and Liberty Movement. It is working for what is really the greatest need of the moment.
