Title: Chile bishop under pressure to resign.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: P-46103 CHILE BISHOP UNDER PRESSURE TO RESIGN SANTIAGO, Chile -- Pressure for the resignation and departure of Bishop Helmut Frenz of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Chile has mounted in recent weeks within his own church. Opponents of the 41-year-old native German churchman have purchased space in newspapers to publish requests for his resignation and departure. The bishop -- in Chile for nine years and head of the 24,000-member, mainly German-background denomination since 1970 -- has been in conflict with conservative factions in the church for an extended period. Criticism has sharpened in the last year mainly because of his work on behalf of political refugees in Chile following the September 1973 military coup which toppled the Allende regime. In another development, the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, Sadruddin Aga Khan, announced that Bishop Frenz has been named to receive the 1974 Nansen Medal for outstanding service to refugees. Bishop Frenz took the lead in organizing a National Refugee Committee together with Roman Catholic, Protestant and other groups shortly after the September 1973 coup.
