BRYAN DANGEROUS TO RELIGION, SAYS COLLEGE LEADER

 Commoner On Evolution

CHICAGO, July 7.-William Jen- nings Bryan was termed 'an ex- ceedingly dangerous character In religious thought" by the Rev. Ed mund D. Soper. professor of history of religion at Northwestern uni versity, in an address tonight before a Methodist camp meeting at Des- planes. MT. Bryan, he said. declares man must choose between the Bible and evolution.
 That" he declared. "is one of the deepest dyed lies going. Man must have come up either from monkeys or from dust. l can see no advantage of mud over monkeys"
 MT. Bryan he added. feared three things If evolution Is accepted; That the Bible will be made lie, that God will be made unnecessary and that man will lose his dignity because of his descent through the animal crea- tion. The Bible, he said, is not a book of science but book of religion and morality and added, there is nothing in the worlds literature that applied to life as the Bible does.'

ROCKEFELLER TO
 REST QUIETLY ON BIRTHDAY SUNDAY
Worlds Richest Man Expects To Attend Church As
 Usual

TARRYTOWN, N. Y, July 7.-John D. Rockefeller. after another S65 days under a careful medical regimen, birthday here Sunday.
 During the past year the aged oil multi i-millionaire has seen Henry Ford take his place in the popular fancy as "the worlds richest man" but his wealth Is still estimated vari- ously between s500,000,0O0 and s1,- 900 100000. This Is perhaps more than Ford's actual fortune, but the automobile mans yearly income is supposed to be greater
 Rockefeller is expected to attend church as usual Sunday, and 1t has been learned that no celebration or party will mark the day. Recently his aversion for being photographed has relented trifle. and 1t is ex- pected that, as was the case in Flor ida last winter, he will pose amiably for the squadron of cameramen ex- pected to surround the little church.
 If he follows a custom on previous birthdays. some Tarrytown young ster will find himself enriched by one ten-cent piece during the day and those who are within hearing may hear his favorite recipe for wealth:
 Get your moneys worth and make your money work for you"
 Rock efeller Is leading a secluded life at his Pocantico Hills estate, playing golf occasionally. He has given away half 8 billion dollars to charity, including s13S. ,000 to the to the Laura Spelman Rockefeller memorial; $4o,0o0,000 for medical re- search, and s23,O00,O00 to the Univer- sity of Chicago.

5,OOO,OOO LACKING FOOD EN GERMANY, REICHSTAG TOLD
Cheaper Bread And Groceries Demanded By Poor
 People
By FERDINAND JAIN deased Wire to The Age-Herald)

BERLIN, July 7.--Between five and five and a half million persons in Germany lack sufficient means Wherewith to buy their daily bread
 This is the estimate of the Cen tral League of Invalids and Widows of Germany in Berlin, which has sent to the Reichstag an appeal for cheaper bread and groceries.
 The Reichstag had already granted assistance to this group composed of persons incapable of making com plete living.
 The memorial lists the needy thus: Invalid pensioners, 1.200,000; indus triany manned 100000; poverty stricken receiving social aid but without pension, 50O,000; orphans, 2.O0O,000; war crippled completely in capacitated to do any work, 2O,000; war fathers, mothers and widows unable to work, 200,000; cripples from birth or childhood, 30O,000; other invalids and unable to work 500,GO0
 The league also has sent a mes sage to the speaker of the House Of Representatives in Washington seeking American aid for this group, which includes only the aged, the crippled and the otherwise incapac- itated, for whom the German gov ernments relief is insufficient.
 Most of the German war-crippled are provided for in factories at more or less remunerative work under a law compelling industials to take a certain percentage of such cases into their works

CLEVELAND, Ohio, July 7.-All hope that Lieut.. L. J. Roth and hls aide, Lieut.. T. B. Null, pilots of the missing navy balloon Access, which left Indianapolis July in the na- tional elimination air race, were liv- ing, was relinquished here tonight.
 The crew of the tug Frank H. Stan ley found the ill-fated aviators' com plete uniforms, leather coats, log, records and charts tangled in the drifting half inflated balloon bag about 22 miles south southwest of Port Stanley, Ontario, about noon to- day.
 On all sides the crew of the tug found mute evidence of heroic struggle in midair. Evidently over taken by terrific winds and an elec- trical storm, Roth and Null fought desperately to ship their ballast and rise above the gale. Somehow, the basket was ripped from the buffeted water logged by the crew of the Stanley.
 Throw Ballast Overheard.
 The log shows that the airmen had been sailing at an average height of 800 or 800 feet before the storm en- gulfed them. Then comes the sig nificant item: Threw 40 pounds of ballast overheard. Rose from 1900 to 2,500 feet.
 Later on just one word appears: Broken" Entangled in the ropes at tached to the basket were found the complete outfits of the aviators, leather coats and all, which they must have doffed before they leaped from the doomed balloon, 1t is be- lieved. A letter addressed to Roth and some pencilings on newspaper clippings also were found. Am head ing for-Canada' was the blurred scrawl of an indelible pencil found on one newspaper.
 The tug came upon the wrecked balloon about noon today after Capt. John J. Cassin of the steamship Colonial had notified authorities at Port Stanley of its presence In the lake.

PLATFORM ABOVE MAN, SAYS BRYAN
 N DISCUSSING 1924
Commoner Declares Coming Session Of Congress May
 Change Political Issues

LINCOLN, Neb., July 7.-(By As sociated Press. )-"I have not dis- cussed the relative merits of avail able candidates for the presidency that has been my rule for 25 years. 1 have said that Governor Smith of New York is not an available candi- date because of his views on the liquor question.
 This was the declaration of w. J. Bryan today when questioned about reported interviews in which he was represented as indorsing W. C. Me Adoo for the democratic nomination. MT Bryan came to his former home to join his brother, Gov. Charles w. Bryan, at a reception rendered to- night at the governors mansion, to which democrats of the state and personal friends of the commoner were invited.
 Discussing Henry Ford, Mir. Bryan said T regard a candidates platform of more importance than his person. ality."
 Probable Issues.
 In regard to probable issues in the next campaign, MT. Bryan said:
 Tn speaking of issues, it is neces- sary to bear in mind that the coming session of Congress is likely to de- termine issues in the coming cam paign.
 Anything said at this time is like quoting prices which are subjected to change. Certain issues seem prob able. They are:
 T. Economics-the farmer is in a deplorable condition He is selling on pre-war level and buying on a level fully 50 per cent higher than the pre-war levels. This means the f., hi much as before and eventually must do without things they need or go into bankruptcy. Something must be done to raise the farmers prices or lower the price of things he buys. Labor Tribunal Suggested.
 "2.-Some tribunal must be estab- lished for the investigation of dis putes between capital and labor be- fore they reach the stage of strikes and lock outs. These two clements are drifting apart and must be brought back together so that they can co-operate in spirit of brother hood.
 "3.-The federal bank which was instituted to benefit the people has been captured by Wall street. It must be brought out of the hands of Wall street and made over again as an agency for protecting the public.
 "4.-The profiteer is the chief ob- stacle to prosperity and nothing IS being done to curb him. All lines oI industry that can combine are com bining and organizing, leaving the masses the victir.s of all these com binations. The eXploiters were never more fully in control of the country than now and that control IS suttl- cient to prevent the amelioratlon necessary.
 "No one. of course, can tell how the importance of these issues will be in creased or diminished by the acton of the coming congress. If the dem ocrats and progressiVes, who together control both houses, will act together something will be done
