Poland has some 24,000,000 Roman Catholics, nearly 75% of its population. Like most east-European nations, it has also an autonomous Orthodox Church and a Greek Catholic or "Uniat" Church, in communion with Rome but using its own form of Mass. Poland's Ukrainians are about equally divided between the Orthodox and Uniat Churches, which have been so friendly that the Uniat Primate is also a leader of the Orthodox faithful.

...Koussevitzky is beginning the Sanders Theatre series of the Boston Symphony tonight with a thoroughly orthodox program of works by Berlioz, Mozart, and Dvorak. Frankly, the program sounds like a Sunday evening Pops concert; certainly, it shows little of the customary interest for which Koussevitzky as a program builder, has become justly famous.

Often bracketed with Earth, but not his follower, Dr. Brunner is a Bible theologian, orthodox enough in the Reformed faith to suit watchful Princeton Presbyterians...
...objectives very far in advance, since the whole surface of European life is cracking and sinking under foot like a thawing ice floe, but which receives its orders day by day from God, who alone knows what will be required of his servants by tomorrow!" Since the Russian Orthodox Church, before the War, was deepest bogged in reaction, its recent recovery has been the most spectacular, under the leadership of Nicholas Berdyaev and Dean Sergius Bulgakov of the Russian Orthodox Seminary (for exiles) in Paris. Protestant thought, to Professor Horton. is most stimulating in the Lutheran nations of Scandinavia...
