United Service
LONDON, August 18. Declaring that the Archbishop oil York's appointment to succeed the Archbishop of Canterbury nullifies the House of Commons' and the nation's rejection of the Prayer Book, the league of Royal Churchmen and the Protestant Alliance, Low Church bodies prominently opposed to the Prayer Book, are petitioning the King to withdraw his consent to the appointment. They allege that the Archbishop of Vork is generally regarded as the rea/ head or' the party which -recently unsuccessfully attempted to subvert Protestantism under the cloak of a revision of the Prayer Hook. Therefore it is impossible to believe he will faithfully administer the laws ami refrain from abusing authority in order to promote the revival of Romanism.
