EPiSCoPALIANS CONDEMN
 THE RITUAL MURDER TRIAL
May Also Omit Reference to Jews in
 Their Prayer Book.

New York, Oct 15.-The ritual mur- der trial at Kiev, Russia was con demned in a resolution adopted to- day by the house of deputies the joint clerical and lay body of the Protest nial general convention The Episco- pa1ians also took steps to amend their prayer book by eliminating the passage in the Good Friday collect where Jews are classed with ''infdeis, Turks and heretics."
 The resolution said: we call upon the archbishops, bishops and other members of the holy orthodox church of Russia to make formal pronounce ment that charges of so-called ritual murders are without foundation or justification in the teachings and prac- tice of the religion of Israel.
 We remind them that in the early days of Christianity similar charges were made by ignorance and supersti- ton against our own most holy re- lgion."
 The committee on prayer book, of the house of deputies, reported favor ably on 8 proposition to amend the third collect in the Good Friday ser vice by emitting the words "all Jews. fnf1dels, Turks and heretios' from the general prayer for humanity. Con sideration of the committees report was postponed, however, to permit dis cussion regarding a further amend ment which proposed that this prayer be offered for "'the ancient Jews and all agnostiCs."

 While the American charge.

It is not expected that the elections. which President Huerta ap- pears to regard as one of the cardinal principles of his policy. will be post poned by reason of his decree, although f. is admitted that this is a possibility,
