The bishop's report was delivered by Bishop Earl Cranston of Washington, li C. and it formed the second section of the Episcopal address, the first half of which had been given the day before.

"The bishops therefore recommend a return to the consistent treatment oL this subject by Wesley, and the mor earnestly because we are dealing with the American people and the intelligence of the 20th century.
