Divorce and Creation
Of Primate Studied

CINCINNATI, Ohio. Oct. 6
IN.S.).-Two major issues faced
Episcopal church leaders today as
they opened the fifty-second trien-
NAL general convention of the
Protestant Episcopal Church here.
The problem of whether the
church's attitude toward remar-
riage of divorced persons should
be modified, and a proposal for
creation of a position of a primate,
comparable to the Archbishop of
Canterbury in the Church of Eng
land. were expected to cause wide
spread discussion.
10000 AT MEET
Approximately 10000 persons
were here for the convention.
Routine business is expected to &C.
cupy the first days session. A
committee will be appointed to
prepare the agenda for following
sessions.
Many believed that the proposal
OF the church'S attitude toward
remarriage of divorced persons
would be deferred another three
years.

the wounded man would have him
arrested, decided to commit the
murder. Davidson was shot be-

parently while he was lying on
the ground.
McDermott refused to reveal
what connection the three men in
Washington had with the case.
but revealed they we're implicated
after searching study was made
of all the murdered mans avail
able cancelled checks. There had
been a sharp increase in David
sons personal expenses during the
past several weeks, McDermott ad-
mitted.
Davidson kept his personal life
so closely guarded that the police
have been unable to locate any
woman who knew him we'll in the
past 81 years, McDermott said.
The new evidence, the Virginia in
vestigator reveals, has caused the
police to shy from the theory that
a woman is involved.
The actual killer, police believe,
was the short, stocky young man
who leaped from DavidSon'S auto
mobile after it swerved into a
sign post at Triangle, refused Of

tagged the car bearing PennSyl-
vania tags which had been follow

CONCORDAT IN 1862

Relations between the Holy See
and Ecuador were excellent until
the end of the last century. In
1862 a solemn concordat was ne
gotiated between the Vatican and
the Catholic president Of Ecuador,
Garcia Moreno, a painting Of
whom can be seen today in the
Vatican offices of the secretary
Of state.
Moreno was assassinated in
1875 by political and religious
enemies, but Vatican-Ecuador re-
lations continued cordial till 1894,
despite ever-increasing anticleri-
cal reaction in the South Ameri-
can nation. In that year the Pope
was chosen arbiter in a border
dispute between Ecuador and
Peru, and, although his judgment
was satisfactory to both coun-
tries, from that time relations
grew strained, finally ending in
open rupture.

Radio and news service agen-

cast an appeal for the occupants

picked up. He believes the de-

the suspect for whom they are
searching.
McDermott said he planned to

weeks ago. One headlight on the
automobile was burned out, the
youth said. In DavidSon'S effects
was found a notation showing he
had purchased a new headlight
bulb three weeks ago.
DISCREPANCIES NOTED
Davidson was meticulous in
keeping a record of every penny
he spent, but made few notes
about his personal affairs, McDer-
mott said. The fact that he would
keep a record of the few cents
spent for headlight bulb and yet
make no explanation of how he
spent comparatively large sums
withdrawn from his account in
the past several weeks may hold
the key to solution of the MUIR
der, the police believe.
Tracks made by smoothly worn
tires near the scene of the murder
may have been left there weeks
ago. McDermott said. The tracks
were deep and apparently were
baked into the ground while it
was muddy, McDermott pointed
out. He said tracks made in the
ground by cars which visited the
scene Immediately after David.

o'clock. He appeared nervous,
they said, and as he entered called
to an unseen companion in his
car:
What kind of cigarettes do
you want?"
Davidson bought only one pack
age Of cigarettes and drove away.
The car was followed by another.
Systematic search for the gun
and knife used by the killer will
