A WELL-KNOWN Australij clergyman, the Rev. Eric Owe will shortly forsake a comfo; able berth in one of Melbourn best Presbyterian parishes for 1 less comfort at one of the static of the Presbyterian Ove r s e Mission in the New Hebrides.
Mr. Owen has been called “fea lessly outspoken”—and he has be called a lot of other things, besic He has been accused of Communi sympathies, has had the distinctii pf having questions asked about h. in the House, and recently a fello citizen threatened to shoot h. when he helped organise a meetii protesting against the H-bomb. T Rev. Eric has not let any of worry him unduly.
It might be interesting to see wh happens when this irresistible for meets the immovable object in ti grained Hebridean apathy. If ; does not succumb to the stoi missionary theory that all nativ are exploited and all Europeans at exploiters, he might even do t; Hebrides some good.
