CINCINNATI, Oct 13 -UP)-The
Protestant Episcopal Church asked
the Presbyterian Church in the U.S.A.
tcnight to join with it in steps to
achieve organic union.
The Church, through its triennial
general convention, authorized a co-
mission to confer with representatives
of the Presbyterian Church on the
draft of a concordat.
While prospects of physical union
in the near future are considered
doubtful, proponents of unity hope
for an early agreement on funda-
mental principles of doctrine which
might lead eventually to fulfillment
of Christ's prayer "that they all may
be one."
Another step toward achievement
of the long-sought goal of many
theologians for one world faith was
taken when the convention endorsed
the proposed World Council of
Churches and agreed to send dele-
gates to a preliminary conference in
