PAGE FOUR Episcopal Church And 2Vew Primate Discover WHAT’S WRONG WITH YOUTH, SAYS MURRAY Bishcn Murray of Maryland Says Youth is Rampant and Aflame; Scores Youths’ Elders NEW ORLEANS. Oct. 27. —Hu manity’s history is a history of cen turies of stumbling alone the path to God. Humanity has many more stumbles ahead of it before the goal can be attained. So believes the Most Reverend Jno. Gard:.er Murray, D. D.. bishop of Maryland, as he assume- the far reaching power- and re c ponsibdities of the primate of the Protestant Epis copal church in the United States. Religion, education, politics, home life, morals—these and many other fields of influence are touched by the program of church procedure laid out by the Episcopalians at their New Orbans triennial convention,; and which Bishop Murray is called upon to execute. To the solution of these problems the new primate brings an extraordi narily successful experience not only in the religious worid but in the fields of every-day business and in dustry. He is looked to by his fellow ’ churchmen for conservatism and practically rather than revolutionary ; efforts as h.-- turns to the tasks in ' which the church feels its hand can serve useful public purposes. Trained investigators who report ed to the New Orleans convention found many important questions for the cliarch to cope with, and on these the policies of the Episcopal clergy, to be administered by Primate Mur ray, were based. These are some of the conditions! the churchmen discovered: Youth is rampant and aflame, but keen, and susceptible of being mold ed into a vital force for good. Youth’s disregard for the law is chargeable to the neglect of youth’s elders. 'The church must help by living with youth, and supplying the young with a program of life. Fundamentally,' youth has not changed, except for the better. Child labor, women in industry, divorce, and attacks upon establish ed order make up one of the great problems of the nation. Family life is threatened most seri ously by the divorce evil. Total ‘‘damaged goods” of divorce in fifty years was 6,189,000 persons, including husbands, wives, fathers, mothers, children.

If the ratio of divorce to marriage continues to grow larger, the whole conception of Christian marriage will fade away. The law permits consecutive polyg-] amy, encouraging divorce. Generally, the Amercian hjome has ceased to function, accounting for the increase in lawlessness. Birth restriction is a menace to family life. Bishop Murray, 68, was born in 1 Lonaconing, Md. His seminary work | halted by the death of his father,] the young divinity student turned j to bookkeeping for an Alabama coal company to support thfe others of his family. With swift strides he became president of a bank, the vice presi dent of a great manufacturing con cern, and the head of a large brok erage business. His financial success enabled him to retire from business at 35, and Murray at once resumed his inter rupted training for the ministry. He became an Episcopal deacon, then a priest, and finally rector of the Church of St. Michael and All Angels in Baltimore. After declining the bishoprics of Kntucky and Mississip pi, he accepted the bishopric of Mary land. At the New Orleans convention this month, the primacy was elective for first time, past choices to this honor having been governed by seniority. The votes of 133 fellow prelates placed the mantle on the shoulders of Bishop Murray. 800 POUND FISH IS RECENTLY CAUGHT Cornwall, Eng.—A sea monster was caught off the coast here by fishers.
