The “Universe” correspondent in Calcutta says:
The Pope has suppressed the two dioceses in Malabar which were provisionally created at the beginning of the great conversion movement which has brought into the Catholic Church such a big proportion of the Jacobites of this part of Southern India and has created in their place a new Antiochene Province, consisting of the Diocese of Trivandrum and Tinnevelly. The former will be governed by Mar Ivanios, who will have as suffragan Mar Theophilus, Bishop of Tinnevelly. Mar Ivanios, who has been touring Europe, was not expected back in India for some time, but he has returned unexpectedly by airplane, traveling with his private secretary from Cologne to Karachi.
