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 Holland, May 9. Earlier, the House of Deputies. yielding slightly to demands for dele- tion of "protestant" from the denom- ination's title, voted to make an ex- ception for the Philippine Islands Missionary district.
