Episcopal Church Club Discusses Dropping

Formal Name of the Church be Changed" The
subject introduced informally. motion that
the name of the church be not changed did not
prevail.
Colonel Asa Bird Gardiner said in part
We are church militant, declare, but we
find losing in numbers, are certainly not
growing We have not got the Catholic immigrants
that have to this country in the last few
years simply because they the word Protestant

cation with the term in Europe, TO other bodies
rather than to us. If have not increased it is
because OF this word Protestant. The church of
England was a Protestant church. Because
OF this word Protestant are losing prestige and
coming to be regarded by Catholics and others
merely as a sect. We have got to keep Catholics
from getting all the Catholicty.
Captain A. T. Mahan. representing those op-
posed to change, said:
We cannot fight against accepted thing as
the name of our church. The name Catholic which
many would have adopt hope do not offend
Christian charity is debased. The true significance
OF the Roman Catholic name is papal. see nothing
