PULPITS OPEN
CIereymen Of Any Sect May
Address Congregational if
Bishop Approve

clergymen OF all denominations. and
even laymen, may now discourse from
Episcopalian pulpits, provided the
bishop of the diocese approve. in ac-
cordance with the new canon enacted
at the General Convention I'm Rich
mond, which went into effect yester-
day.
Although the rule was adopted by a
large majority, there are still many
high churchmen who think the innova-
ton should not have been permitted.
and the results Of the procedure are
being watched with interest The Epis-
copalian clergyman, however, is not
expected to ask any other clergyman
than one of his own denomination to
assist in conducting the services.
The conservative element in the
Church fears there may be cases where
the rector and perhaps the bishop will
permit some speaker OF radical views
to discourse from this open pulpit.
Provided the head OF the see approve,
a Roman Catholic or a priest OF the
Greek Church may be permitted to
make an address.
Current numbers OF the Churchman and
other religious periodicals are filled with
discussions for and against the plan.
One Of the first examples Of the new
canon viii be observed in Christ Church.
at Broadway and Seventy-hrst street,
New York city, under the auspices Of the
school for the training OF laymen in re-
