Bishop Who Will Wed
Poverty Urged for N. Y.

"There is not the slightest chance of
New York getting the bishop whom
1t ought to have" and New York
would be ranic-stricken should God
send him to her." says the current
issue of The Churchman, out to-day,
in commenting on the approaching
election Of a Protestant Episcopal
Bishop Of Now York to succeed the
late DR.. Charles Sumner Burch. The
Churchman, edited by the Rev. William
Austin Smith, says that "a bishop who
Wlil wed poverty would make a glowing
leader"
He would not get money for mis-
sions, the editorial in The Churchman
continues, cor great churches or parish
houses for charity, but he might get
something which money has not
brought us-he would get the ear of
millions Of his brothers who want to
be toiq how we can speed the kingdom
OF Cod, dry our tears and fill our hearts
with confidence and hope.
Money is the one power that the
kingdom of God can do without. No
Church has ever believed that, except
the early church and the monastic
movements in their years of light
Money can not save the American peo-
pie or bring in a better world"
