BRYAN'S VIEWS ON EVOLUTION "FAIRY TALES" "Melodramatic Speeches Futile in Face Arguments, Greenaway Tells Hope Church Forum. 5.

"The light cast by biological search leaves 110 shadow of justification for the old-fashioned dogmas of religious 'orthodoxy' with respect to creation," David E. Greenaway, teacher of history a in' the Technical High School, said in a lecture on "Evolution" at noon yesterday before mem-! bers of the Forum of Hope lional Church. He explained that "there. is a sharp distinction between the Biblical fable of the creation and cvolutionary point of later. that the "mclodramatic speeches" of William Jennings Bryan are "more fairy tales" in the face of evolutionary argument.

"The reaction against the evolutionary theory," he said, "was begun by certain American politicians, as is evidenced in attempt, though unsuccessful. of certain state legislatures to prohibit such teachings, namely, the legislatures of Kentucky, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Florida and, most recently, South Carolina. The melodramatic specches of William Jennings. Bryan are futile in the face of evolutionary They, are mere childish fairy tales. "The only value that this reaction can have is merely, to show that the superstitions of centuries not casily dispelled and that much more cducation is needed before the masses will accept unreservedly the unity of! man with the animal kingdom.

"The study of biology leads us to believe that the human body in structure, functions and development hibits the most unmistakable signs of Apre-human ancestry. An examination! of the great vertebrate group shows lone common fundamental plan of organization. The organs of the human have 1. counterpart in other vertebrates. varying in structure only in details.

The dorsal central nervous system, namely the brain and spinal the brain case. vertebral column, the heart and respiratory system are fall characteristic vertebrate features. And vertebrates and invertebrates alike are, on analysis, found to bc built up.of essentially similar structural units, clear down to the amoeba. "An important law, however, should be observed the cvolutionary systo m. While the progress of living things cach new branch of the trec grows from some parental stam.

it rarely or never evloves from the more I specialized members of the or parent branch, but from the less orgunized representatives. which have retained higher degree of plasticity and which are able to adjust themselves to new environment. "Onc of the most important arguments for the evolutionary process is the conclusion reached through biological knowledge that each individual organism, whether animal or plant, in its development from the egg to the adult stage, or in its embryonic development, passes through a serics of stages which closely resemble the stages through which its ancestors passed in their journey through adult life. In other words. the individual life history repcats the history of the race.

"The reason why the Biblical story of creation is satisfying to the mind of the average: man: is because it makes a definite beginning, a listington also between what is alive and what is not alive. For the evolutionary process there is no such starting point, no definite commencement for life. The student of evolution sces no beginnings in nature, but only change. Evolution is continuous, no beginning and no end. Organic evolution.

therefore, cannot be separated from the evolution of the inorganic world. Astronomy, paleontology. theology and chemistry carry us still farther back into the inorganic where there is change and preparation for the organic. The student, finds, also, one very practical lesson in progressive evolution. It is this that the accuI mulations of surplus- energy or capital is a great factor in progress.

Capital cannot be accumulated without expenditure of energy or work. Work, then, is necessary to life. Those who work live and those who do not die." Dr. Guthrie Raps Cathedral Policy Foresees "Liberal" Institution in Plea for More Financial Aid. NEW YORK, March 8-Dr.

Willian Norman Guthrie, rector of St. Mark'sin-the Bouwerie, pleaded today with This congregation to contribute further to the building fund of the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, despite the recent refusal by Bishop Manning of the church's original offer of $500. Saying that Bishop Manning's publicity agents by appealing to all classes had forced the bishop into' a position from which he could not retreat, Dr. Guthrie predicted that the cathedral would by necessity become "a liberal Institution with.

an open door to all." He said it tras his personal opirion that the kind of services to be held in the cathedral under the present regime "won't be worth 80 cents," and that the only appropriate services would include "futuristic sacramental light and futuristic rausic, with oriental bells, African drum: and booming gongs and trumpets as of archangels." Dr. Guthrie asserted that the 'times "show the Roman Catholics bound for Protestanism with' brass bands, and the Protestants, on the other hand, are bound for Catholicism." "So, clearly we are destined to get together, whether we will or not," Dr. Guthrie predicted. "Efficiency drives us, when plety doesn't. Competition for money and membership broadens us, when thinking won't."
