Koretz's Friends Say He Was

Chicago, Dec. 1.-THE origin of
the Panama oil bubble organized
as the Bayano River Trust company
in which friends and relatives of Leo
koretz are said to have lost millions,
today was ascribed by his intimate
friends to a swindle perpetrated on
him in 1910.
"A relative OF an attorney named
Dan Belasco," said Attorney Francis

announcing he had concessions for
rich timber lands in Panama. He
sought some one to invest $40, 900 to
pay for cutting and shipping some of
the timber. koretz invested that
amount and that was the last seen of
that promoter.
"koretz made a special trip TO
Panama to hunt for the man and
while there he evidently acquired a
lot of local color for his own greatest
promotion yenture--The Bayano Co.
and the inspiration which carried
him through 8 years of frenzicd
finance
Those who invested with koretz
described his methods as the exact
reverse of the ordinary type of pro-
moter He was invariably reluctant
To accept the money of his friends
to invest in his schemes. and always
made it appear that he had to sac

dav acquire webs in their feet. Aero
nauts win probably acquire wings be
cause they attempt to fly, ETC., etc
The coccyx. Darwin made much
ado over the coccyx bone which pro-
iects like true tail. Darwin shows
two pictures. One is human embryo,
while the other is the embryo OF
dog. In both cases the coccyx bone,
or tail, projects considerably beyond
the rudimentary legs. This argument
can easily be met by asking another
question: Why is it that the tail OF
a dog continues to extend beyond the
legs in the final formf And why is
this not the case in mans The ludi.
crous answer has been given that man,
when he began to sit down on his
launches, wore his tail away. If that
is true, Why is it that the monkey,
who also sits down, does not wear his
tail aways Why, in fact, do not all
animals that sit down on theii
haunches--like the dog-wear away
their tails7
The ovule. Darwin says f" Man is
developed from an ovule, about 125th
Of an inch in diameter, which differs
in no respect from the ovule of other
animals. -
Here we have one of the wonders of
science; 1t only proves the power of
God in making the ovules of the diff
ferent species produce different kinds
of animals. Since these ovules are ex
actly alike in their structure and an
alysis, why do they differ so widely
in the finished products Paul answers
this question thus:

pleased him, and to every seed of his |
own body"

White of an egg. Chemists tell us
that the white of an egg and the poi
son of rattlesnake are exactly alike
n their chemical composition. 1t is
. matter of universal knowledge that
he egg gives life, while the poison of
he snake destroys life. Here we have
chemical composition working in OBJ
,osite directions. Why is this sos

physician, discovered a tooth on tn
island of Java, several feet below thu
surface of the earth; one month late
he found the roof Of skull abou
three feet from where he found the
tooth, and in August, 1892, he found Z
thigh bone forty-five feet further
away, and later, another tooth.
''That is all that is known of tht
wonderful link that connects man
with the lower animals. A year OF
two after these discoveries the world 3
famous biologists met at Leyden, and
among other things examined and dis
cussed were the remains of pithecan-
thropus. Ten of those scientists con
Guided that they were nothing but the
bones of a man, and seven concluded
that they were really the missing Link

of twenty-four of the most eminent
scientists of Europe, only seven, not.
onethird ascribed any Importance
whatever to this pithecanthropus cree
tus.
But the amusing thing about this
celebrated archaeological affair was
later explanation that accounts for
the different opinions of those Leyden
experts, though rather hard on the ex
perts: it was given by Prof. d. c.
Cunningham, of Dublin, one of the
highest authorities in Great Britain ON
questions of comparative anatomy.
His conclusion was that those differ
ent bones do not belong to the same
animal at all, some of them being
those of monkey or baboon, the rest
human. So that the missing link,
pithecanthropus, turns out to be moth {,
ing but a few bones of monkey and /
fewer of a man found not very far
apart on the island Of Java.

Blood of man and blood of monkey
In the blood of man and the blood Of
monkey we have a parallel to ths
white of the egg and the poison of the
snake. Until short time ago, evoiE
tionists made great capital out OF tns
contention that the blood of the monk
ey is exactly like that Of man. A ply
stefan exploded this contention some
time ago when he challenged surgeon
70 transfuse the blood of monkey
into the veins of man who needed
an infusion of blood. The physician
met the surgeon with his own argu-
ment. and beat him at the game. The
truth of the matter is that the attempt
to infuse the blood of monkey into
the veins of man would prove fatal
to the man. This theory is therefore
exploded.
The ancient horse argument The
eyolutionist, in his effort to prove the
possibility of crossing the species,
compares the ancient horse with the
modern horse. Prof. Osborn says on
this point;
eve are not able to assemble and
place in order line after line of ami
mails in their true evolutionary success
sion, extending over millions OF
years.
1t is to be noted that, though he re-
fers to many animals, he is cautious
to name only the horse.
The ancient horse referred to is
known as the eohippus. He differs
from the modern horse in that he has
a cloyen hoof containing four toes and
a great toe. 1t is unfortunate that
Prof. Osborn forgets one important
truth, that the eohippus and the mod
ern horse are both horses in every re-
speet. The word "eohippus" merely |
means "ancient horse. Remember, |
if you please, that here we have a
case of development within the
species, not development from one
species to another.
Evolution, according to Herbert
Spencer, is form of progress from
he homogeneous to the Heterogeneous,
from the simple to the complex ele-
nents of life. Therefore, if the horse
graduated from four-toed species to
! one-toed species, it is graduating
rom the complex to the simple in
tead of from the simple to the com
lex. This, then, is case of devolu
ion instead of evolution. In the case
f the horse, Spencer's definition is
therefore, reversed.

ing on the skin, possibly a wart, which
converged the light ON a certain spot
The increased heat irritated the skin
and nerve was created. This nerve
became the optic nerve, which, in
turn, became the eye. The Darwinian
is, of course, only guessing. And,
since one man s guess is as good as
is that of another, why not guess that
the man who invented this theory was
lunatic. That, methinks, gives a
reasonable explanation for his wild
guess.
The legs. The evolutionist assumes
that man sprang from a very low or
der of life. A worm has few faculties.
This is true of the whale and of other
lower animals. They each became a
higher order of life by adding new
faculties. Thus, wart was the nut
cleus for the leg.
The ears. Air waves beat against
the skull and produced the nucleus for
the ears. Man never develops fac
ulty until it is needed. For example,
the duck acquired webs when it began
to swim in the water. Birds acquired
wings when they began to fly. So,
man acquired legs when he began to
walk on the land. IF this theory is
correct, we may look forward to the
formation of numerous faculties in
man. Perhaps all swimmers will some

Washington.-Sec Hughes has
informed the British, French, Italian

notes handed their representatives in
/ Washington, that the American Red
Cross will terminate its emergency
relief work in Greece on June 30, next
The note declared that the relief prob

for the thousands of refugees ito be

In the event the British, French and

concur in a cooperative endeavor,
Mr.. Hughes said. the Washington
Government will welcome "an early

upon, and the relief task apportioned.

The Near East Relief was said to
be prepared to continue child welfare
work, including the support of $1,000
wholly dependent orphans now in
