St. Louis. Oct. 31.-A strong human hoee makes vitally significant the DOrty-uinth tr4sun1al General Conven- ton of the Protestant Episcopal church which recently closed its three weeks sessions in this city.
 It vihrated with the determination to remove the erroneous popular be- lief that the Episcopal church is only Tor the rich. Both in the councils in Mooiah Temple and in the informal copferenoes held in the adjoining tent Df the Social Service Commission, btzhops and presbyters declared that Tho church must not bind its fortunes to tho privileged and -besought a to- lerant hearing even for leaders of Tad1calisln.
 The convention adopted the report of tho Social Service Commission with plans for bantshing poverty, reconcil- dns labor and capital and promoting sooial justice. It also urged by resol- ution that wages be made sufficient lto permit th3 laborins classes to main cain . proper standard of living.
 It took upon itself a greater bur Aen of responsibility for the work of tho Board of Missions. For missions there was collected in the triennium 9l,eoo, 900 and at St. Louis was made tho splendid united offering of $352,- Ter raised by tho Woman's Auxiliary. Tho convention authorized the mis- sionary etploration of the French plafeau in Western Africa; founded the tho District of Panama; and elect sed missionary bishops for Western Co., Hprado and south Dakota
 Endorseme9t was given to the pro 0pct of tho Board of Religious Educa- j4aon for grouping into 8 comprehen- uave scheme schools. Sunday schools. Nenominational colleges and theolog1- cal seminardes.
 To guide tho energies of the church and to utilize its potential wealth, tho Iconvention. advised by the Commit tee on Business Methods. adopted g new system of finance for all parishes, boards and societies
 Tho Committee on Pensions an- .nounced it had raised Stwo-thirds of the $5, 900 900 for the support of the Aged clergy.
 The convention created an official aCoaumission on Press and Publicity with authority to work during the lnext three years.
 Negot1ations are under way to pre- cent tos Eastern dioceses the splendid pageant reviewing the history of the church, produced at the Coliseum by i9, 900 residents of St. Louis. The .spectacle WIS regarded as of great value in tho Naturalization of historical fruths for the public.
 Complex as the details of the re- svia1on and enrichment of the Book of iCornmon Prayer seem. they represent, fin realty, tehe1 enosts of the Episco- pa1ans- tol c6ms in closer contact with the masses. Their effect. if approved fin 1913. will be to shorten the ser vices; to give greater adaptibffity, and to omit harsh or archaic expressions which do not harmonize with modern

life. For the first time, there was adopted a prayer for the dead-a re- fiex of the tragedy of Europe. Illness is no longer a visitation of God: the Divine Being is mot pleased" to re- move man from life; and greater lati- tude is given to the clergy in the hear ing of special confessions. New pray CTS have been introduced for those who labor and increasing civic spirit in the added petitions for the guid- ance of legislators, rulers and courts of justice.
 hymna1 and permitted the alternative use of a new lectionary, without off, cially sanctioning 1t.
 It voted down a canon forbdddtng the remarriage of divorced persons; postponed action on eliminating Obey fropn the marriage services; jected proportionate representation of gave no votes to suffragan bishops; re- diocese; refused to let women be dep- uties; and took steps to make possible a racial episcopate.
 The body passed resolution urging repression of the liquor. traffic; sug- gesting abstinence from intoxicating drinks at public functions;, favored a censorship for moving pictures; and encouraged the Actors Alliance.
 The Presiding Bishop, the Right Reverend Daniel S. Futile, in his ad- dress at the golden jubilee of his epis- copate, celebrated during the conclave. lifted high the banner of independ- ent American church. The conven- ton, however, patriotic in all things, lacked not in sympathy with the Mother Church beyond the seas. and cordially welcomed the Bishop of Wor- cester, and other prelates from Great Britain and Canada It voted also to send a delegation to offer comfort to the Anglican communion in these days of stress.
 Touch with the Church Universal was manifested in the report of the Commission on Faith and Order for the number of commupions working towards a reunion of Christendom have increased from 30 to 58. Digni- taries of the Russian Polish National and Serbian Catholic churches pre- sented fraternal greetings in person. After the European War delegates will visit the various religious organ nations on the continent in the inter- est of unity.
 In view of the devastating catac- lysm abroad, the convention passed a resolution to aid international peace by promoting friendships among Christian churches throughout the world. The struggle beyond the Alt lantic is also the subject of the pas toral letter of the House of Bishops
 Manifold as the activities of the church at the convention were they represented only part of the great changes taking place beneath the sur face. It is predicted that many moro signs will appear in the next General Convention to be held at Detroit in 1919, that the church Is per1neated by an awakening social consciousness.

not so much fear German submarine warfare near the American coast as it must be supposed the United States is better prepared than are the small neutral nations to prevent wholesale torpedoing of neutral ships.
 The German submarine warfare thus far has cost Norway I'll ships with a total tonnage of 235,000 and the lives of 140 Norwegian sailors.

MEXICAN PEACE.

Mexican peace, like Hobson' S
choice, may some day become rec
ognized paradox. Our Southern
neighbor is having some unfortunate
experiences. But no country lives
wholly unto itself. The political in
digestion which has been troubling
Mexico came very nearly spelling
the appetite of the American people
for certain candidate for president
now happily elected. It has cost the
United States many millions in call
ing out it's militia and transporting
them to the border. 1t even now
threatens to engulf the United States
in acrimonious dispute as to the bet
ter policy to be pursued, with refer
ence to Mexico. 1t may even impede
the legislative program of the Amer
lean Congress. 1t may finally force
us into a war.
1t may be hoped that the agree
ment reached by the Joint Commits
sion will avert many of these antici-
pated troubles. On the other hand,
few lawless bandits acting in con-
junction to bring about revolution
or to commit a border raid, may
undo in day the results of months
of negotiations and deliberations.
But while some of our citizens are
inclined to be somewhat harsh on
Mexico, it might be we'll for Amer

lshed in the American Jewish Year
Book for 1917 (5o7S). A small ques-
tlonnaire has been sent to all rabbis
whose names have come to the atten-
ton of this office 1t is probable, how
ever, that for divers reasons, there are
a few of whom the Bureau has no rec
ord. Would you therefore be good
enough to publish this announcement,
SO that any rabbi who sees it, and who
has not yet received Our letter of in
quiry, may put himself into COMMUNE
cation with this Bureau? 1t would also
be a favor if such of your readers as
are in touch with Jewish communal
affairs, would be good enough to bring
this matter to the notice of their rabbis.

insulted by the agents OF one of these
petty companies do not deserve any
sympathy. All the f1rst-class COM
panies accept risks on Jews" The
minor companies have only one in
ducement to offer, and that is a cheap
er rate. The rates Of the standard
accident insurance companies are as
low as they can be made compat-
IDLY with safety 1t is penny wise
policy to go to any other for insur-
ance to save few dollars at the risk
OF losing all. Companies of doubtful
solvency do not care for the participa-
ton or patronage of Jews. They are
generally of an inquiring turn of mind
and want to know too much. When
ever company announces non
Jew policy it is good one not to do
business with as it probably has
something to fear from Jewish in
quisitiveness.
We have addressed note to the
company asking what explanation they
had to offer regarding the matter, but
have SO far received no reply from
them. Evidently all that Our contem-
porary writes concerning them, is true
There must be something wrong with
business concern that refuses Jewish
patronage. We Jews are generally Civ
en- credit for common sense and good
Judgment A business enterprise of
possibly questionable methods has
good reason to be afraid Of Jewish in
quisitiveness.
What we regret is that such an in
stitution should have its headquarters
in Minneapolis. 1t is discredit to the
city.
