AND PASTOR DEBATE EVOLUTION BEFORE NOISY TT1RONG

tions and positions in some cataclys-
 mic upheavai
 pr. Riley provoked much laughter
 when he referred to the man and
 monkey, declaring that he believed
 his ancestors walked around on two
 legs, and that If anybody wanted to
 believe that theirs hung from trees,
 they had better not claim kinship
 with him.
 There was great applause from the
 audience when Dr. Riley walked up
 on the stage and took. his seat but the greeting accorded Dr. Metcalf two minutes later seemed to have been noisier. Only the debaters and the timekeepers had seats on the stage.
 The debate was precipitated when pr. Riley. on Sunday night. Issued a challenge to the six college pro fessors who had attacked Dr. J. C. Massee. pastor of the Fremont temple in Boston on the basis of his state
 ment tha L no man could tNlieve in evolution and be a Christian pr. Mstcalf affirmed his belief in the Christian religion at the outset of h's 1 speech. declaring: I am Christian. have accepted in its entirety the
 fact of evolution. and have never found anything In eyolutionto shake
 my Fundamental Christian religion.'

By Assoc.atsd rress

Washington, May 17.-~Discussion of European conditions from the viewpoint of American trade and fi- nances continued today to occupy both the day and night sessions of the annual convention of the Cham Der of Commerce of the United States Several of the speakers to- day emphasized their conviction that the United States soon would be with Europe and that. with final set- clement of the German reparations question, world business would boom.

 A. c.

 Francis H. Sissons. president of the Guaranty Trust company of New York, asserted his, confidence that representation of the United States by competent bankers and econo- mists at conference in Europe to provide for the mobilization and dis tribution of International credits would be desirable, and the minister from the Netherlands.

Transportation Believed to Be Subject to Be Taken Up By Executive at the
 Meeting
By Assoc,nted Press

Washington. May 17.-President Harding. it became known today. has invited about 70 of the country's leading steel manufacturers to din- ner at the White House tomorrow night. While official comment was withheld as to the purpose of the gathering, the fact that the President had previously given notice of his intention to have i6 or 20 presidents of the larger railroad lines in com ference at the White House Satur- day night. gave grounds for a gem eral Understanding that transporta- tion matters would be taken up with the steel manufacturers at the ear Her gathering.
 It Is understood that the matter of transportation rates and the possi- bility of securing downward revision immediately to an effective extent, even If not ordered by the interstate commerc commission. will be dis- cussd with the railroad executives. The steel interests, 1t j. said in some quarters. are vitally concerned in rate reduction, In VieW ol semi administration proposal to have downward rate revision accomplished by lowering freishts on heavy basic commodities before attempting gen erai percentage reductions on all freights.
 FAvors Eight--'our Dny
 In addition to this. President Hard Ing is known to have taken particu- lar interest in proposals to secure more general observance of eight hour day operation in the steel in- dustry. This. it was considered pos sible in some quarters. might also be discussed tomorrow night.
 4 Senate resolution ordering an investisation of recent mergers and merger proposals affecting larger in- dependent steel companies has also placed on executive departments some new duties in relation tq the industry, While the resolution is particularly addressed to the department of jus tice and the federal trade commis sion. the latter body having already moved to comply with the require ments under the resolution. there was no possibility that President Harding might see fit to go into the subject with the men directly concerned.

DRASTIC STEPS ID
 QUELL TERROR|STS
 TAKEN IN CHICAGO
Guards Placed si,ssssu very BuiIdipe,. '.struc.
 with Orders " U Shoot to Kill
Bx Associated Press

Chicago, May 17.-Death threats sent to police, the announcement that the labor leaders would have to stay in jail and steps to place armed guards about every building under construction in Chicago were devel- opments today in the police war on labor terrorists.
 The placing of guards with orders to shoot to kill followed a fire start ed by bombers last night as the lat est act of violence in campaign against the Landis wage award
 Big Tim" Murphy, Fred Fader, president of the building trades council and Con" Shea. were checked at the outset of a supposed move for freedom today when Chief Justice Kickham Scanlon of the criminal court, rejected a defense motion for ssignment and mmediate te hearing of their trial on charges of having slain a patrolman.
 The death threats were received by Chief of Police Charles Fitzmor- ris and Captain Wesley westbrook, warden of the Cook county jail. The chief received his In the mail at his homo where uniformed policeman is on duty day and night while a second officer has been his body guard. The threat to the warden came when extra police details on guard in anticipation of a possible 6 attempt to rescue labor leaders held there. In a speech today Captain westbrook told members of the Lyons club that the respectable ele- !, t,lN arrS must repudiate their criminal lead CTS or lose the support of those who are in favor of the union cause"
 Discredlt to Unionlsm
 Tt appears to me-" he declared, "that unless the better element in the unions repudiate former convict leadership and places in it's stead men of sterling and recognized good character unionism in Chicago will be discredited by the entire citizen ship"
 The warden did not place the full blame on the unions, however, he declared that the fostering of spe- cial privileges in courts and in the minds of the public has eaten into the moral consciousness of the city and in large measure permitted crime to go unpunished.
 Declaring he had received threats to "burn Chicago" Chief Fitzmorris announced that he would put one or more watchmen on each building un- der construction. Tn the hands of each guard we will put shot gun or a rifle and a commission that will give him the authority to shoot to kill at the first sign, of invasion of the property under his guardian ship" he said
 ..Jt is time to take the most dras- tic of measures to prevent repeti- ton of the si00.o00 fire of last night If the police force is not sufficient, I expect to call on the sheriffs or flee. but I believe we can use enough police. special officers ana regularly authorized night watch men to handle the situation
 Robert E. Grove. states attorney announced tonight after conference with Chief Fitzmorris. that four more indictments would be returned this week in connection with the slaying of two patrolmen by bomo- CTS last week. Eight labor leaders already are under indictment in con nection with tho slaying of one or the officers.

Raleigh. x. C., May 17.--To the ac- compartment of vociferous demon stration that passed the vehemence of a political campaign, Prof. z. P. Metcalf head of the department of zoology at the North Carolina State college, and Rev. pr. w. B. Riley. pastor of the First Baptist church of Minneapolis, Minn., debated evolution here this afternoon.
 [ Every man among the 1000 who were present acted as his own judge and rendered decision according to the dictates of his own feelings. Sup port of the scientist and the theo- logian was about equally divided in strength. with the scientific group . shade more powerful of lung and muscle. The crowd packed the house to the limit of it's capacity.

The quality of golf that Mra. Geismer played to defeat the Mem phis woman can only be realized when the weather conditions are taken into consideration. Playing her match in a steady downpour of rain, Mrs. Geismer excelled Mrs. Gaut throughout and turned in an excel lent card for the fourteen holes she played.
