TOWN REFUSES TO SEE‘LIGHT? (Continuer! From Page 1) quit. In the fall of 1924 Deen ashed for his school back again and/ Doogs refused, because of Deen's* idea’s on evolution. Both Deen and Doogs agree on this point. When the Dayton controversy arose Deen wrote to Dr. Henry N. Sherwood, State superintendent of public instruction, asking about the right of a trustee in a over what should be taught in schools and Sherwood replied that trustees had absolute power when it came to employing and discharging! teachers. Deen says he taught the evolu-t tion theory from a text book authorized by the State board. Folks Talk About Him “Folks around here look on me as a heretic,” Deen said. "It is unpleasant to be talked about but I feel I simply did my duty. In a community of this kind one has to contend with superstition and ignorance.” Dean said that if the State department of public instruction is helpless in such a matter he will not attempt to carry his fight further. “I told Doogs he had a mistaken idea about evolution,” Deen .continned. “I never taught that man t descended from a monkey at all. merely taught the text.” ' Deen said he thought the Tenney see anti-evolution law was vicious. "You can not restrict free think-.. sing,” he said. * Doog’s Idea , Doogs, the trustee, has some verv4 fijced ideas on evolution. "No one who believes man sprang' from a monkey will ever get aj school from me,” he said. “Wcy would not have so many non-believ-ers nor our prisons would not be ao, full of criminals if they would stop/ preaching this monkey business. “I don’t care about the religion sor politics of a teacher, but I do wamt

him to be a Christian. I am a Catholic and a Democrat, but I pay no at'tention to that when I hire teachers. Os course I believe the Bible-” Postoffice Argument Doogs said that he had heard Deen had argued about evolution in front of the postoffice with Theodore Kisert, a former Methodist minister. Eisert held the opinion, Doogs said, that evolution could not be reconciled with the Bible. "Deen’s folks are fine people,” Doogs continued. “His father is a good Christian man, but I am not so sure about Deen. I won’t hire .any Christian haters.” While Doogs does not believe in (evolution, he says an anti-evolution f law would not be satisfactory. “It would be just like prohibition,” he said. "We would be a lot better off if they allowed stills to make good -whisky and the Government regulated'the sale of i.t” Doogs/ cannot see any conflict between /the teachings of the Bible and thy drinking of good whisky.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

SCIENTISTS RAP TENNESSEE LAW / / (Continued From Page 1) yes, criminally inadequate if It omits emphasis upon evolution. Evolution Fact Established " r ’he 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. "There is great uncertainty as to the method by which evolution has been brought about. None of this has any bearing upon the question of God as creator of the Universe. It is only a matter 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 cf evolution. The literalist intrepretation of the Bible is not only puerile, it is insulting, both to God and to human intelligence.” “Fundamentalists Insult God” "The fundamentalist would do much worse than insult God. He would shut man’s mind to God’s ever growing revelation of Himself to the human soul. He teaches that God’s revelation to Himself was completed long ago, ceased to unfold His mind to men in new revelation." Dr. W. D. Curtis, zoologist of the University of Missouri, former investigator for the United States fisheries bureau, said; "The past history of events, whether of human or animal origins, is subject matter for scientific inquiry and the answer of science is evolution. "It is not that man came from monkey, but that man, monkey and

ape all came from a common ancestry millions of years ago. Evolution Basis Modern Thought "Evolution is one of the basic concepts in modern thought. Suppression of a doctrine established by such overwhelmnig evidence is a serious matter. "Evolution has become generally accepted by the intellectually competent. who have taken the trouble to inform themselves with an open mind. "The principle of evolution stands in the first rank among the natural laws not only lri Its range of applicability, but in the degree of its validity. It is the one great law of life. It depends for its validity not

upon conjecture or philosophy, but upon exactly the same sorts of evidence as do other laws of nature. "Think what a sensation In the scientific world might be created if someone were to discover even one well authenticated fact that could not be reconciled upon the principles of evolution. Anthropology Sustains Theory “It the enemies of evolution ever expect to make any real headway in their campaign, they should devote their energies toward the discovery of such a fact.” Dr. Fay Cooper Cole, anthropologist, University of Chicago, for nineteen years in charger of the phy

steal anthropology and Malayan enthnology work at the Field Museum of Natural History, Chicago, leader of several anthropolyglcal expeditions, said: “Anthropology reveals the snot that man closely resembles certain members of animals worlds in every *>one and organ of his body. There are differences, but they are differences of degree rather than of kind. "Anthropologists accept evolution as the most satisfactory objection of the observed facts relating to the universe, to our world and to all life on It. It seems conclusive that lt is impossible to teach anthropology or the pre-history of man without teaching evolution.”
