Ovacos NUPTIAL VOW OBEY MAY GO Matter Is to Be Considered by Episcopal House of Bishops at Meeting This Week Pre finary to General Session. Alterations in the Book of Common Prayer with revisions in the marriage and burial services, are among the chief problems to be considered this week at The Auditorium, where 70 bishops of the Episcopal church the advance guard of the General Con ventionwill hold the first of their preliminary meetings. The presiding bishop was late, so no meeting was held today. Only the members of the upper house are here, as the convention proper does not open untir next week. The bishops will hold sessions in an at tempt to settle among themselves a number of knotty problems that will have to be acted upon finally by the convention proper. COME KH03I AFAR The bishops ort hand represent such far flung corners of the world as East Africa. China, Japan, the Philippines. West Indies. South America, Alaska and. of course, the various states. In all, 139 bishops are due to attend. Rail road strikes have prevented many of them from arriving on schedule time, however. More than 200 changes in the Book of Common Prayer are up for discus sion. Whether or not the word obey" shall remain in the marriage ceremony a question that has agitated previ ous conventions will be up again. The Right Rev. Edwin S. Lines, bishop of Newark. N. J., one- of the most weighty figures in the Episco pal church, was a little reluctant to commit himself this morning. He said: "The proposed :-eviion will strike out the word obey altogether.. It is felt by many that the vows' in this regard should be the same forvboth parties." Asked concerning his views on the proposed revision of the vow, "with all my worldly goods I thee endow," the bishop's eyes twinkled, but he begged to be excused from comment. BI RIAL OF DEAD "There sis another proposed change, however, that I think, everyone is in favor of.and that is the revision of the service for th burial the dead. This service was drawn up; sO years ago when death and everything that pertained to it was made as terrifying as possible. w$th a view .to searing lag gards to conversion. That period of thought is not passing, it has passed. The modern view of the passing of life i hopeful and this effort to bring into the burial service a more comforting note, is one that seems to meet with general approval." Inquiry is the biggest thing from the standpoint of the church that will come before the convention Bishop Lines said : "Naturally the greatest interest will center around the reports which will bring out the work of the presiding bishop and council, which came Into being three years ago. This being the first report of this council, makes it (Concluded o Fig Two, Column Two) Tnlrln Alio-. 3ft. fl. X.

VETO PLOT IS SCENTED Senators Backing Plan Fear In troduction of McNary Land and Debt Payment Amend ments Will Not Please Harding Washington, Aug. 20. (U. P.) An air of confusion over the soldier bonus Mil enveloped the senate today as It prepared to take a final vote on the measure. While passage of the bill was ex pected before adjournment tonight. Its supporters feared that the unexpected tactics of the opposition in effecting adoption of the McNary 350,0O0,00O reclamation fund amendment and the proposal of Senator Simmons that the bonus be paid out of the interest of the $11,000,000,000 allied debt, made it certain that President Harding would veto the measure.
