The New Primate
APPOINTMENT OPPOSED Australian and N.Z. Press Association. LONDON, August 18.

They allege that the Archbishop of York generally is regarded as the real head of the party which recently unsuccessfully attempted to submit Protestantism under the cloak of revision of the Prayer Book; therefore, it is impossible to believe that he "will faithfully administer the laws and refrain from abusing his authority in order to promote a revival of Romanism.
