P) 'There waa never a "cloee affinity" be tween man and the great apes, and What relationship there was haa been broken for 25,000,000 years. That is the new verdict held today by Dr. Ales Hrdlicka, authority on ancient man, after hts l&tcat study of thousands of human and Ape bones In the Smithsonian Institution and elsewhere. The savant asserts that the human race got Its start on earth not less than twenty five million years ago, If you count back to the time when man broke all family ties with the apes and concentrated on being human. "There 1s some relationship but no lose affinity between man and the great apes," he said. Tf you had lived farther back than 65.000,000 years1, however, he contends you could n t have told a man from an ape, for in those days both were com iblned In a mysterious creature that was neither one, but common ances tor of both. Then In the mlocene geological age this ape-man ancestor's family de veloped two branches, says Or. Hrd Hcka. One grew Into the humans of today. The other becamo the race of anthropoid apes that includes gor illas, chimpanzees and' gibbons. That doesn't mean the human branch be came human at once, but did trend definitely away from' becoming apelike. OF NEW SENATE BILLS WASHINGTON, March 80. P The senate struck out today at gang sters and racketeers, passing a gross of bills to strengthen the federal gov ernment's hand In fighting crime. Soven bills, tightening up the fed eral laws regulating crime, were pass ed by unanimous agreement and sen' to the house. They were all recom mended by Attorney General Cum in ings. Among senators urging their quick approval were Robinson, the demo cratic Ion dor; Ohalrmnn Ashurst of the Judiciary committee; Vandenberg, (., Mich.), and Copeland, (D., N. Y.) chairman of the special senate com inltteo which Investigated racketeer- tog. Probably one of the most Impor tant of the bills would give the gov ernment a new law under which It could prosecute commercial racket eering, with power to penalise of fenders with Jail sentences tip to 09 years. Other bills approved would extend federal power over extortion by tele phone, telegraph or other Interstate commerce communication; make It unlawful for a person to flee from one state to another to avoid prose cution or testifying; strengthen the Lindbergh kidnaping law; penalise aid to escaping prisoners; make the mur der of a federal officer a federal of. fenao and give the government power to prosecute robberies of national or federal reserve, banks.
