NEW CHURCH
NAME UNLIKELY
Opposition to the Proposal in
Episcopal Denomination
: Will Block Scheme
must WAIT THREE YEARS
TO MAKE THE CHANGE

Although the matter will come again
before the triennial General Conven-
tion of the Protestant Episcopal
Church in New York City next Octo-
ber, the suggested change in the name
of the Church from Protestant Epis-
copal to the Holy Catholic Church
can be made for another three
years, even should the convention act
favorably on the proposal, according
to statement just issued by the Con-
vention Executive Committee.
Those familiar with the attitude of
the members Of the House of Bishops
and the House of Deputies. which will
assemble between October s and 28,
regarding the proposed change are of
the opinion that the matter will be
dropped possibly to be resurrected
three years hence.
Undoubtedly there will be a lively
discussion of the proposal At the
last general convention, in Cincinnati
in 1910, the Rev. John A. Staunton,
Jr., of the Philippine Islands. present
ed to the House of Deputies a me-
mortal relating to the name of the
Church in the title page of the Prayer
Book. which was referred to the Com
mittee on the Prayer Book. The com
mittee opposed the change by a vote
of ten to four.
In the House of Bishops also a simi-
lar petition was presented by Bishop
Cortlandt Whitehead, OF Pittsburgh
and, as in the House of Deputies, the
matter was referred TO the Bishops
Committee on the Prayer Book. AS
chairman of the committee, BishOT
Whitehead presented a report adverse
to the proposed change.
The phraseology of the proposed
changes as presented to the two
houses varied, but was alike in the
matter of changing the name of tn,
Church. The matter had come up al
the General Convention three years
before, but had not provoked much
discussion.
According to an article of the con
stitution of the Church, adopted al
the General Convention in October
1883, no alteration or addition to the
Prayer Book can be made unless "the
same shall be first proposed in one
triennial meeting of the Genera
Convention and by a resolve thereof
be sent within six months to the Sc
cretary of the convention of everl
diocese, to be made known to the
Diocesan Convention at its mex
meeting and be adopted by the Gen
eral Convention at its next succeed
Ing triennial meeting by a majority
of the whole number of bishops en-
titled to vote in the House of Bis
hops and by a majority of the clerica
and lay deputies of all the diocese
entitled to representation in tn
House of Deputies voting by orders.
No such resolution was adopted il
1910, and even should the comm
4 General Convention take favorahl
. action regarding the propose
. change it cannot be effected until tn
