Annually St. Mary's was pontifically visited by a Canadian high churchman, Bishop Rocksborough R. Smith of Algoma, Ont., who wore red slippers and episcopal gloves, presided at long and ceremonious services worked up from Fortescue.* A story became current in the Episcopal Church: that New York's Cardinal Hayes, upon learning that a choirboy had fainted during a Mass, had said, "We'd better be careful; the first thing you know they'll be copying that at St. Mary the Virgin." Latest innovation at St. Mary's: the use of a vimpa, a scarf...
...catch is down has felt Herr Himmler's not-too-remote presence. The German who uses prearranged codes in letters to his relatives in or out of the country decidedly feels Policeman Himmler's existence. The discontented merchant, the dissident Party member, the persecuted Jew, the defiant churchman, the too-independent Army officer have with good reason dreaded his heavy hand-and often landed in one of Herr Himmler's concentration camps. Moreover, little neighboring countries have particular reason to fear him; the presence of 55 Führer Himmler's young men in Austria, Czecho...
...League two years ago was a tall, gaunt Anglican, Rev. Wallace Harold Elliott, 54, vicar of swank St. Michael's Church in London. Vicar Elliott is England's most famed "Radio Parson," has been longer on the British air-seven and a half years-than any other churchman.

Then, like other Englishmen with a cause in their hearts, they wrote a letter about...
...Must We Tolerate Intolerance?" demanded Rev. Wilbur Larremore Caswell last week in the liberal Episcopal Churchman. Mr. Caswell thus stated a dilemma which bothers many a religious liberal. It was posed for him last month by a Nazi Bund rally on Washington's Birthday in Manhattan's Madison Square Garden. That rally loudly cheered Adolf Hitler and Rev. Charles Edward ("Silo Charlie") Coughlin, loudly booed President Roosevelt ("Rosenfeld" to Bund speakers). Ejected from the meeting was Pundit Dorothy Thompson, who laughed shrilly at a speaker's citation of the Golden Rule. The rally was perfectly legal...
Most submarginal U. S. churches-and there are many-would welcome the ministrations of a business-minded churchman who would: 1) supply each of them with a $45 radio (which he could buy in quantities for $25 apiece) ; 2) broadcast to them a rousing Sunday morning sermon, a good choir program; 3) ask in return only such donations as they care to send him. From Indianapolis for the past five years, a smart businessman named E. (for Emmett) Howard Cadle has been doing exactly that. Last week, celebrating the fifth anniversary of his broadcasts over Cincinnati's big station...
