Bishops Wife Behind All Great Careers Cited at Dinner
On its Wth birthday Bishop Herbe Welch of New York, the oldest Methodist bishop now retired, praised wives and mothers for supporting famed careers. He and Mrs Welch celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary in 1950 and urged that women often act as king-makers rather than on the throne. A separate Australian conference urged Christian lay action in industry, urging faith first in daily work, loyalty to Christ, and cooperation among employers, management, and unions to resolve disputes and promote lay conferences.
