BIG QUESTIONS TO
BE DISCUSSED BY
EPISCOPALIANS
(Revision of the Canon on
Matrimony Expected to
Cause Long Debate
Detroit, Mich., Oct. 2. —Revision
iof the Book of Common Prayer of
: the Episcopal church, adoption of
i a new canon touching church unity,
and revision of the canon on matri
mony are three of the most Impor
tant matters to be brought to the
attention of the delegates at the tri
ennial convention of the church that
will open here October S. It is
(anticipated that upwards of 3,000
'delegates and many of the leading
churchmen of this and other coun
tries will attend the convention,
which will last two weeks or longer.
The proposed revision of the
canon on matrimony would make it
impossible for an Episcopal clergy
i man to remarry divorced persons,
even the innocent party to a divorce.
It has been anticipated that this
question will provoke much debate.
The proposed new canon on church
unity, it is stated, would make it
possible for a minister of anothor
communion to be ordained in the
! Episcopal church without first giv
ing up his original affiliation. The
revision and modernization of the
prayer books is expected to take
imuch of the time of the gathering.
Social Service Meetings
During the convention daily meet
rings on social service are to be held,
,nnd the Church League for Social
and Industrial Democracy will com
plete its organization with Bishop
Charles D. Williams, of Detroit, its
leader.
Representatives of capital and la
bor will be invited to give their
views in the open forum meetings
on social service, preliminary to the
launching of the new league. The
purpose of the league, it is stated, is
a country-wide educational propa
ganda for better co-operation of all
walks of human life "for t, state of
society in which man will get all he
earns and earn all he gets, where
no man will live on the fruits of
another man's labor and no man will
be denied the fruits of his own
labor."
Church leaders anticipate that
the question of open sessions of the
house of bishops will again come be
fore the convention as it has the
past score of years. The proposal
lost by one vote at a recent con
vention of the bishops.

It Imperative that immediate atten
