PORTLAND, Ore; September 21.— The concordal, declared by those who advocate it as a movement in the inter- est of church unity, was before the house of bishops today for final action. This proposed agreement with the Congregational Church provides for the ordaining by Episcopal bishops under certain conditions of ministers of the Congregational Church who may. ask for such ordlnation. To make the concordal effective, adoption of a canon will be necessary. Already both houses of the convention have adopted a change in the constitu- tion of the church which will make pos- sible the putting Into effect of the con- cordal. The house of deputies faced a big task In passing upon proposed changes in the communion service. An Eleventh Commandment.
