today requesting the House OF Bishops Of
the Protestant Episcopal Church to con
slider the propriety Of using unfermented
wine At the communion In place of fer
mented wine, which contains the mar
cotic poison alcohol
The resolution was a substitute for one
originally offered setting forth that fer

English Delegates Object.
This phrase was objected to by Egg
lish delegates. who argued that 1t would
antasonixe the Church of England. The
English delegates also objected to an
amendment declaring that Jesus COM
manded- unfermented wine in the holy
communion"
The objections were voiced by Miss
Agnes f. Slack. honorary secretary OF
the organization, who said that the
Bishop Of Lincoln told her the Church OF
England could not offer the sacrament
in unfermented wine, and that the Arch
bishop Of Canterbury told her: III you
pass such a resolution shall use my
influence to see that no member OF the
Anglican Church Joins your organi-

SOUTH AMERICA EXPECTS

was made under the direction of Di-
rector John Barrett. In this connec-
ton, Mr.. Babcock said. in part:
Expect Greater Business.
Publishing has reached as an adj
vanced stage in the larger republics of
South America as ii has In the United
States. and our importers of paper and

bring them.
Along the coast great harbor works
are either being built or are projected,
and preparations are being made TO take
advantage of this business. The Chilean,
rightly called the Yankee of South
America" is very much alive to his COM
mercial opportunity. and let's no chance
pass to extend his business activities.

only ones whose applications may be
held up for further consideration.
With the law requiring that definite ac-
ton shall be taken on the license appli-
cations before the beginning of the license

DEFEAT OF TRAVERS
CAUSES COMMENT
Champion Paired With Doyle To-
day-Semi- Finals Nearly
Completed.

'Sea-going" golfers were right in their
element today when play in the semi
final and final rounds of the annual fall
tournament at the Columbia Country
Club was started. At about II 30 o'clock
1t stopped raining. but the damage had
already been done and the course was
water-soaked and muddy, perfect golf
being out of the question. The play OF
nearly all of the contestants suffered
from five to ten strokes.
or almost equal interest with the
matches being played was Jerry Trav-
ers' defeat OF yesterday at the hands OF
DR. Lee Harlan. and this was the main
topic of conversation. and many were
the "alibis' offered in behalf of the
champion by his friends. but the con-
sensus of opinion was that the local
player found conditions just to his lik-
ing and won on his merits.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1913-10-25

When Lee Harlan defeated Eddie BROOK
in the first round of match play yester-
day. It was easily seen that the one-tim.
star of local golfers was back on his
game, and that he would be hard man
to beat This surmise proved correct. as
DIR. Harlan furnished the surprise of tho
tourney BY defeating Jerome Travers in
the second round in the afternoon after
playing twenty holes. The downpour Of
rain apparently bothered both PLAYERS very
little. and about the only excuse that can
be offered for the champion is that n.
may have been little over-confident al
the start. but when Travers found he
could not shake Harlan OFF he buckIei
down to real work. 1t was then that
Harlan showed his splendid nerve and
superb condition by sticking to Travers
like leech. and finally WOE out oil the
twentieth hole by UP.
