JThe scientist takes as a. starting point the fact that there are now living in the world 1.000 000 kinds of animals and about 2.000 000 kinds of plants. it has been estlm—' fled. although this belongs in the Tealm of cénjccture. that there have bien perhaps 50 000. 000 varieties of blunt and animal life on the globe. ‘t’Wiiat is the meaning of this di- 1;. r nI bet with members of the Savoy Alh- vei'sity'.’ growths the result of special creav tion, or did they evolve from basic law of change. which constantly challenges inertia and forces con- tinuous adaptation lOW'illd some for goal—man or some creature yet to come? There is evidence that the Egypt- ians puzzled over this question—not as we have clarified and defined it. but with a deep realization that here were the diverging roads in man's progress toward an under- standing of the universe. When i'sametichus opened the ports in Egypt, in 583 B. C.. the Greek phil- osopher Thales brought back from Egypt dimly recorded conjectures that life and the physical universe marked a gradual emergence fronl some basic unity. This view reap- pears again and again in Hellenic and Itoman speculative philosoth. but does not find clear definition un- til after Bacon and the Italian phil- osophers who had proceeded him had laid. the foundation for the mo- dern inductive methods of scientific research. other Studies Affected The acceptance by science of the inductive method is of the utmost importance in the story of evolution as it is based on generalization from known and observable facts. and to the limit of these facts. instead of deductions from accepted or tradi- tional generalizations. As modern science is based on this method. it is the contention of the evolutionists that evolution must stand or fall with the entire body of scientific achievement, and that any legiti- mate challenge of evolution must attack only its basic data. and the soundness of its conclusions. rather than its agreement or disagreement with accepted views. They maintain any attack which would overthrow all modern science. as such an at- tack would draw the Ilnie between the old deductive religion and phil- osophy and the newer inductive method. So. from the viewpoint of the ev- olutionists—of course the able and brilliant controversialists who op- pose them would not admit this-— the tourney of Dayton field will bring into the lists the old and the new. Charles Darwin. they say, has drawn a. line between the centuries. and across it will contend the forces of modernism and ancient tradition. lf Thales.

There has also been a marked diminution in the number of. university graduates among the as- pirauts. The committee, reciting the causu in the slump of applications for or- dination, mentions the secularization of modern life and education. short- comings in the life and work of the church itself. the low standard of pay for the clergy which does not oi'ter certainty of maintaining and educating families and the intellec- tual difficulties which many modern young men encounter when called upon to subScrlbe to the 39 articles and some of the crccds. The committee believes ‘lt_would bring relief if it were decided that the 39 articles were no longer sat. ist‘actory as a statement for the pur. pose of cssent and that restatement of those principles is required." The report also suggests giving candidates gicuiti fleedom in sub- selibillg-to certain clauses in the moods. ‘ 'lhe Bishop of Gloucester. one of the members of the committee. up. pends a note to the report with re- ferance to the falling off in appli- cations from the leading universities.

Scopes. appeared undis; tun-bed today by the absence of the chief actor in Tennessee's evolution drama. The young school teacher visited at his home in Paducah.- Kon- tucky. while preparations continued for his trial on charges of teachink evolution in violation of the State law. Dr. George W. Rappicyea original prosecutor of Scopes. told The Asso- ciated Press yesterday that a pub- lished report that he had instigated the evolution chargestfor publicity purposes was without foundation. “While I originated the case and served at first in prosecutor in the matter. I did it with no ulterior mo- tive. My only object was to bring About a test of the evolution law." The report characterized by Rep- pleyea. as erroneous was not car- ried by The Associated Press. Action by the National Education Association at Indianapolis was ex- pected on a resolution denouncing the Tennessee Evolution law. The proposed resolution in part says: "In certain States. of the Union teaching as a constluctive social function has been menaccd and may be menaced again by misguided leg- iIlative authority that fears to trust the intelligence. the public spirit. and the devotion to duty of the pro- fession whose desire it is to serve the people by training children for intelligent citizenship. “The reactionary Luck School laws. in the State of New York. abolished in 1023 after a trial of two years: the Greene law of California. pro- posed in 1921. and dealing with the matter of controlling the opinion of teachers. as well as numerous bills in several States thIt have been dc. signed to .censor the w‘l'tilg and the TRIST RAM 89° HYAI I.
