GATES POSES BAFFLING QUERY AT ASHLAND MEET Ashland. Sept. 3. Spl.) W. A. "Bill" Gates, Medford grocer, posed a baffling question before the Ashland Rotary club Thurs day, when he was featured speaker on the subject, "What Do You Think?" Mr. Gates, a firm believer In freedom of speech, himself, went on to ajk Rotarians their opinion of the possibility of eliminating the abuse of that great human right by eradicating the causes for the abuse. Particularly, he rapped the Darwinian theory of evolution as a chief basis for most of the discontent with accepted theo ries of religion and human con duct and rights. He contended that the idea of Hitler and Mus solini for enslavement of all ex cept peoples selected ty them stem directly from the atheistic concepts of Darwin and kindred believers. His talk brought considerable discussion, and evolved into a five man forum, in which Dr. Walter Redford, Theo J. Norby, Homer Billings, Will Dodge and he tried the question from vari ous angles. Mr. Gates told of man of his acquaintance who, although he possessed a splendid self gained education and a remark able ability to suit his thoughts to words, waa rebuffed continu certain of hla writings in publl cation in various magazines and Journals. . The writer, who ranged aheep In the Antelope district of south era Oregon, waa Inclined to an atheistic belief, and, in his writ ings, pushed his Ideas which were argumentative and con trary to common beliefs. Upon being persuaded of his mistake, he found that hia con sequent writings were accept able and souzht-after, and fur- ally when he attempted to place LJher, that his own conception of life had altered to that of other people. The speaker did not attempt to lay out a course of action for correcting the evil, beyond em phasizing a sincere belief in the Christian religion as only one sound both in theory and fact. He left the matter with his listeners "Can we not have freedom ' of speech without the assertion of destructive thoughts?" Cm 1UU Tnoune cant tda. Old Fashioned Reviral Carta t Fuller.
