HIT BY SCIENCE Conflict Denied by Many Authorities Biology Cannot be Taught Unless Origin Theory Is Made Tart DAYTON, Twin; July 20. balance flruii a broadside Into the Tenneasoa uuii evolution low today la the form Of nine affidavits by solentlSts, edu cators and mlolstars, filed with the Itlum county court In the Scopes ca . ri' affidavits contained in con donsed form the teaUmony which tlie oiiiwrl witnesses for the defense Mould have given had they not been baited from teat) tying by Jiulm Rggnton, That evolution' in nature Is an Undeniable (act. the prescrip tion of which in the public schools would work untold harm, is the ten or of all their statements. That evolution does not conflict with rellnlon, for It is Ood's method of rontlnuons creation anil revelation of Himself to man. was the conclus ion of several. The documents gave the reactions Of the several fields of scientific re search to the ban on teaching the evolutionary theory. The branches of science represented included ceol- -oity, loology, biology, anthropology, embryology, agriculture and educa tion. Statements were submitted by Dr. Hainan) H. Metcalfe. Johns Hopkins university: Dr. II. H. Newman. I'ni verslty of Chicago: Dr.. Kay t'oodVr Cole. University of Chicago: Dr. W. C. Curtis, University of Missouri: 1)r. Jacob O. l.ipman.

Pr .Metcalfe, zoologist, now doini. research work for Johns Hopkins ' university: "Intelligent teaching of biological science is impossible if the estab lished fait of evolution is omitted. "(lod's growing revelation of Hlnt . self to the human log cauuot be realized without recognition of the evolutionary method He has chosen. "Teaching in any field thai deals with' living things is disgracefully, yes. criminally inadequate if it omits emphasis upon evolution. "The fact of evolution of man. of all living things, of the earth, of the sun. of the stars- is as fully established as the fact that the earth revolves around the sun. Change, growth, evolution is fundamental, a pivotal truth in all nature. Theory Not Absolute "There is great uncertainty as to the method by which evolution has been brought about. None of this has any varying upon the question of Coil as creator of the universe. It Is only a mutter of the method he has chosen in the creation whether by Immediate fiat or by gradual growth. This evidence is overwhelming that the latter was and Is His method. "There Is no conflict between the Bible and the fact of evolution. The llternllst Interpretation of the Bible in not only puerile, it is insulting. both to God and human intelligence. "The fundamentalist would do much worse than insult Cod. He would shut man's mind to Cod's ever growing revelation of Himself to the human soul. He teaches that Cod's revelation of himself was completed long ago, ceased to unfold his mind to men in new revelation." Dr. W. D. Curtis, zoologist. Uni versity of Missouri: "The past history of events, whether of human or animal origins. Is subject matter fdr scientific in quiry and the answer of science is evolution. The very great antiquity of man, the existence at an earlier period of man like beings, intermedi ate between man and other pri mates, together with the fuels of man's anatomy, his embryology, his physical reactions, even his mental ity, all point to his bodily kinship with thi' rest of living nature. "It is not that man came from monkey, but that man. monkey and ape all came front a common ances try millions of years ago. "Evolution has become generally accepted by the intellectually compe tent who have taken the trouble to inform themselves with an open mind. "The principle of evolution stands in the tlKal rank among the natural 1'r.vs not only In Its range of appli cability but in the degree of Its va lidity, the extent to which it may lay claim to rank as an established law It Is the one great law of life.

"The evidences upon which the law of gruylly Is based are no less Indirect than those supporting the principles of ' volution. "In the field of physical chemistry we had first the molecular theory, then the atomic theory, then the Olttlc theory and govt the electron theory. Kach of these has appeared in direct response to the necessity of explaining new sets of tacts and num. 'of them is so well founded as (ho I theory of evolution. "No one has ever seen a molecule, on atom, an Ion. or an electron. The ; existence of unit the properties of those entitles have been deduced from I the behaviours of varehvinieal sub glances when subjected to expert i mentations. j "The evolution theory has beer tried and tested In every conceivable iwny for considerably over half a eon titty. Vast numbers ot biological facts, have been examined in the light i of this priuciple anil w ithout a -ingle I exception they huve been entirely i compatible with it. I " Anthropology reveals the f.a t that IgjMtn closely resembles certain meni- hers of animal worlds in every bone and organ of his body". There arc differences hut they are dltferenis i of degree rather than of kind. These antmaii most closely resembling ma-: are the anthropoid apes. While thej are similar, yet it is evident that man's line of descent is not through 'any of these anthropoids. It does appear, however, that man and the .other primates have a common pre ' cursor. "Anthropologists accept evolution lag the most satisfactory explanation of the observed facts relating to the universe, to our world and to iill 1 life on It."
