17 SEPTEMBER 1954, Page 13

SIR,—Mr. David Pumfrett's letter puts the issue in its right

perspective. A few years before the war the Reverend ' Tubby' Clay- ton had a notice outside All Hallows-Barking- by-the-Tower. It said: It matters not whether you are High Church, Broad Church or Low Church—don't be Dry Church, Bored Church or Slow Church.'

The world situation is serious enough for us to give up playing the fool in these matters and this applies to both the High as well as the Low fanatics. Christians must demon- strate that we have an ideology superior to that of Communism which is able to save a crumbling civilisation.—Yours faithfully, BERNARD CAKEBREAD RNVR Club, Berkeley Square, W.1
