MAY OMIT PRAYERS FOR JEWS
Episcopalians Also May Bar Appeals
for Turks and Infidels.

NEW YORK. September ia nro-
posaI to omit from the prayer book Of
the Protestant Episcopal Church prav-
ers for Jews. Turks. infidels and here
tics will be submitted TO the Episcopal
trienntal general convention to be held
in St Louis in October. The proposed
changes are approved by the special
commission on the revision of the PRAYER
book.
The proposal to eliminate the Jews
from Episcopal prayers is based on the
ground that II is an insult to class
them with inf1dels and hertics. The pur-
pose in striking out the Turks from
the prayers is to avoid confusing them
with Mohammedans- The prayer as pro-
posed reads:
Have mercy upon all who know Thee
not as revealed in the gospel Of Thy
Son"
