...string, showed itself ready & willing to make a neat bundle: itself, the Presbyterian Church of the U. S. (Southern) and the Protestant Episcopal Church. Aggregate membership of this big bundle: about 4,500,000. The Assembly formally invited the Southern Church, split off by slavery in 1861, to rejoin it. It approved a concordat, drawn up last year by Presbyterian and Episcopal commissions, for cooperation between the two churches, beginning in local congregations (TIME, Feb. 6). As Moderator of the Presbyterian Church the Assembly elected a man from the foreign mission field, where the urge toward church unity is strongest...
Soon Woll & Co.-who would hardly welcome Mr. Whitney as a boss-had to reverse themselves and consider the Lewis proposal seriously. Franklin Roosevelt startled them with the news that Teamster Dan Tobin had agreed to rejoin their committee. Having first refused to serve as an A. F. of L. negotiator because he thought William Green's terms precluded peace (TIME, March 13), Dan Tobin returned 'to the committee in effect as a representative of Franklin Roosevelt, giving C.

Married. Brian Grover, 37, British engineer, and his wife, Elena, 36; for the second time; in London.

Steadfastly L.M.S. refused: 1) to remove Gwilliams, because such action might set a precedent for "further unconstitutional action"; 2) to make him rejoin the union, since intimidation is frowned upon by the Trade Disputes Act. With the odds thus heavily against it the strike last week collapsed. Back to work went the 4,000, each, a week's pay out of pocket. Still on the job was Gwilliams, who through it all had kept his head screwed on, his pence...
Ultra-tough, one-eyed General Jan Syrovy is the famed veteran hero of the Czechoslovak legions who stormed clear across Russia during the Russian Revolution, sailed from Vladivostok to rejoin their comrades in the homeland. It was smart for President Benes to give out last week that "yielding to fresh foreign pressure" he was unable to appoint as Premier General Syrovy, the people's choice, but had to choose instead a civilian, the Governor of Moravia, Jan Cerny- especially since it turned out a few hours later that redoubtable General Syrovy had actually been appointed Premier and had instantly...
