Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin. AS
the primate already has indicated his
early retirement, BALDWIN has no doubt
discussed with his majesty the King
the question of successor
King Georges wishes will be an i'm
portant factor in the selection OF
new primate, because the head of the
state and the head Of the church are
so often in official association.
1t is widely believed that the choice
will fall upon the 63-year-old Arch
bishop of York, not because there is
any direct line of preferment or
precedent to follow. but because he Is
thought by many persons high In
church and political circles as the most
suitable candidate for the vacancy In
point of personality, scholarship and
administrative capacity. But while
the appointment of the Archbishop OF
York, the Most Rev Cosnno Gordon
Lang. is regarded almost as foregone
conclusion, the claims of others cannot
be ignored.
Other Candidates.
There are, among other candidates.
Dr. Hensley Henson, Bishop OF Dur
ham: DR.. Theodore Woods, Bishop of
Winchester. and DR.. Thomas Strong.
Bishop of Oxford. Should his grace
of York set the see of Canterbury.
none of these is likely to get the See
Of York. DR.. Davidson himself was
transferred from the see OF winchester
to Canterbury.
II the Archbishop Of York Is selected
the promotion will not be such a great
one. The question of precedence be-
tween England's two arcllbishops, York
and Canterbury, is delicate. His grace
Of York Is the "Primate of England"
but His Grace of Canterbury is
"Primate Of All England" The Arch
bishop Of Canterbury crowns the reign
ing monarchs of England, such as
King George or Queen Victoria, but
the Archbishop of York crowns their
consorts Moreover. the Archbishop OF
York is the perpetual chaplain" to all
queen consorts, and, as in the present
instance. is much closer to the royal
family.
His grace of York takes precedence
over all crown subjects not of royal
blood. except the lord high chan
cellor, but his grace of Canterbury
takes precedence not only over the
lord high chancellor, but also imme-
diately after princes of the royal blood.
Considering this, 1t would seem that
the real ecclesiastical prize will go to
that cleric who gets the Archbishop of
York's see in the event his grace of York
becomes his grace of Canterbury.

PRAYER BOOK DEFEAT BREAKS
ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY
Primate Saddened by Parlia-
ment's Rejection of Re-
viSed Version.
Resignation Imminent-York
PreIate Likely to Succeed
to Church Leadership.
BY BATES RANEY.

ASSoclatcu Press stan Writer.
LONDON, July l4.--From the smoke
screen which arose around the rejection
OF the alternative prayer book by the
House OF Commons the 80-year- old
Archbishop Of Canterbury has emerged
broken, saddened old man, whose
resignation Is imminent.
To many an Anglecian he represents
the leader Of a forlorn hope because, as
churchman, he crossed swords with
Parliament, and Parliament. not the
church. controls the established re-
ligion of England.
The Archbishop of Canterbury be-
fore his elevation in 1908, was the Most
Rev Randall Thomas Davidson, Bishop
of Winchester He has had a long and
distinguished record with the church
The son of Henry Davidson of Edin-
burgh, he began his career after oxford
as curate of hartford. Kent He mar
ried the daughter of Archbishop TAFT of
Canterbury and served for a period as
private secretary to that prelate
He was Subalmoner to Queen Victoria
In 1882 and later served as her domestic
chaplain. He is a trustee of the British
Museum and author of many religious
books.
Cry of mo Popery."
Parliament is in no better mood re-
garding any rapprochement with Rome
than it was in the days of Henry VIII.
when the l50-year-old revolt against
the Pope reached its climax Opponents
of the new prayer book claimed it was
a step backward toward the Church of
Rome and the cry mo Popery" was
enough to defeat 1t twice in the House
of Commons by an overwhelming ma
jority.

Whether or not the charge is true is
question for theologianS to argue
about Suffice it to say that his grace
the Archbishop of Canterbury. primate
of all England, was in favor of substi-
tuting the alternative prayer book for
the book of common prayer. which was
last revised in 1862. A majority of the
politicians were against the idea, and
they won.
The most important question which
the Church of England now has to deal
with Is who will succeed the Archbishop
OF Canterbury. His resignation, al
ready intimated, may come sooner than
Is generally expected.
His grace has already visited the
King at Buckingham Palace and dis
cussed with his majesty the position
created by Parliaments rejection of
the new prayer book, and it was noticed
then that his face keenly showed the
destruction Of his hopes.
Retirement Indicated.
In the usual course OF events the
resignation will first be rendered to

BEAUTIFYING AMERICA.

Returning 10 Washington many years ago from Western trip which had completed for him visit to every State in the Union, the late Uncle Joe" Cannon said to newspaper reporters seeking an interview: "Yes have seen all the States, and I have definitely concluded that the United States is hell of success"
 Uncle Joes" conclusion is convneingly i'm pressed upon any who travels in any sec tion of the United States This country is a tremendous success, measured from any angle. trip from the Northwest that carries on criss- cross through the Southwest confirms this con cluson. We have been accustomed to the great ness, the wealth, the energy and the beauty of the Pacific Coast, the Northern States and the East, because travel is mostly through those re- gons But visit to Denver, Kansas City, Dal- las, Houston. Galveston, Waco, San Antonio, Fl Paso Phoenix and other points in the Southwest will disclose great Empire of wealth, energy and beauty that is not well known.
 One of the most notable things connected with development in America during the present century has been the response to the demand for beauty and cleanliness in city and town building. Columns have been written about the progress in that direction in the vicinity of New York and other American metropolitan cities and in California Florida and other sections that have bid for the trade of tourists and vaea- tionists But we are not accustomed to hear
 
 Southwest States where the progress has been unsurpassed during the last decade. Per haps the world has nothing more beautiful than the residential sections of Kansas City which has been developing along plans prepared a quarter of century ago. Dallas is another of the countrys beauty spots. The United States has no better groomed city, more majestic archi- lecture, finer residences and grounds beautiful parks than has this Texas metropolis. Close be- hind Dallas in Texas comes Fort Worth Houston Galveston and other cities. Texas cities like those of Caliofrnia are riots of flowers and shrubbery and trees. They rivals of Los Angles with her adjoining Pasadena, Santa Mon ica. Beverly Hills and other beautiful suburbs.
 The evidences of expenditure in building and landscape architecture, in works of art of all kinds and in good roads the proof that Americans have learned what to do with the wealth that has been accumulated and that is accommodating in this country in larger and faster than the world witnessed before.

Homage to John Smith.
Manchester Guardian. )

Not the least stimulating of the results of that welcome annual American invasion of Bri- tain which is now in full swing is it's habit of reminding us of neglected romantic passages in our joint history. The past week has seen two such occasions for retrospect cne in the meeting held at the old Queensbury mansion in Piccadilly, to honor those statesmen who espoused the cause of the revolting colonists in the War of Independence That meeting served to recall some of the most vital passages in the history of liberal thought in England, but great though the associations that it revives, it cannot compete for sheer adventure with that at Black wall on Saturday which commemorated the set ting of Virginia. If the unveilng of tablet to the memory of the 105 il-assorted pioneers who set out in their cockle-shell ships in 1606 on vague search for an El Dorado sends us back to the record of their enterprise, shall find most works of fiction dull by comparison. The novel is net written that has imagined more astonishing variety of fortune than befell the man who heart and soul of that reckless venture, and whose name, with singular appro- priateness, plain John Smith For even al- over which the historians have long disputed it seems pretty clear that the first man to set up an English State in America had served mer- cenary in the Low Countries, worked for while on a pirate ship, defeated three Turkish cham pions in single combat in the sight of two armies charmed as a slave the heart of a fair Turkish lady, and slaughtered pasha who cruelty ill., treated him-and all this before he took on, in his stride as it were, the disciplining in a new land of the helpless party with whom he sailed from Blackwal It is lively record, even for the first American and tablet is no less than his due

Carranza.
(New York World. )

Emilio Carranza had com. to this country frankly a goodwill mission. He was, to speak, returning the call of Lndbergh, the call that accepted by two nations a symbol of the cordiality that had entered into their relations. And Thursday night as he his way back to report his success, Emilio Carranza was killed his body being found by a berry picker in the pine woods of New Jersey, and his battered plane, the Muy Bonito, being found nearby.
 Nothing brings people together so surely as a common bereavement. It is bond that soon- CT later lays it's spell the whole of man. kind And the of Carranza will be no ex- ception. For the first time perhaps, in the United States get adequate picture of the people south of the Rio Grande. Previously they have been characters bearing strange names in newspaper stories, figures wearing strange clothes walking through newsreel movies strange voices singing strange songs in a strange tongue. Now, however, read of their grief at the passing of this boy, they become human made of flesh and blood like ourselves, cpable of shedding the same bitter tears that shed. And for their part, they get, perhaps for the first time too, an adequate picture of Previously, too have been to them characters bearing strange names in newspaper stories. figures wearing strange clothes in newsreel movies, strange voices sing ing strange, baring songs with saxaphone and ukulele accompaniment songs that often grated on ears attuned to soft music. But now, as we pay sincere tribute to a brave man, we must seem little different made of flesh and blood like themselves, capable of shedding the same bitter tears that they shed. It is moment of international amity, of understanding, of intimacy too deep to put into words.

NOT RELIGIOUS QUESTION AT ALL

The circumstance that a very large majority Of the leaders and managers of Gov Smiths Presidential campaign at Houston and through out the country and are non Catholics and very large percentage of them are high in Masonic and the Protestant church organiza- tions ought to dispose of the idea that religion will cut very deeply in the 1928 political cam paign.
 If churches and church affiliations have i'm portant Influence in the election it is more likely to be due to resentment of the attempts Of some of the officials and preachers of some of the Protestant churches to take their religious organizations into politics. The attempts will fail of course but they may cause so much noise that they will arouse or less active resentment It Is worthy of note that there were many times more church members-particularly among the young men and women--actve about Houston wearing Texas for smith badges than there were about Dr. Bartons prohibition prayer meet fngs.
