est and enthusiasm lacking. An
ideal, an organization, an insti-
tuition that has no opponents
shows that it is not worthy. Any
thing that is not opposed proves
that it is not to be feared and
therefore the question arises in
my mind, ''Is the Jewish Con-
gress q matter too small to be
discussed or are all the people in
favor of it and do not find it
necessary to be critisized :"
The trouble lies, I believe, in
the fact that the Jewish people
do, not see the necessity of
having a Jewish Congress. They
do not take the trouble to under
stand the cause and ideal of this
Congress. Every state will sure
ly find a man who is willing to
offer his time and assistance fc
the Congress to listen to the
beautiful speeches, lectures, at
tend the banquets, receptions in
the honor of the delegates, will
alse listen intently to the resolu-
tioAs that the speakers will make
and will return to his home town
and outline to Ithe people the
many plans, but there the work
will finish until the following
year when he shall again attend
the Congress.
This will help but very little
the old Jewish problem and all
the money and time spent is
merely wasted. If we want to
have the Congress bring the
right results, it is necessary for
the Jewish people to be heart and
soul in the idea. They must now
and at once discuss the serious
Jewish problems and try to find
an answer to them before the
delegates 60 to the Congress os
that the delegates can speak
with full understanding at the
Cont 9ress and when they return,
with all the plans, the people will
find a paved path for them to
fulfil all their resolutions.
The Jewish Congress will not
only take into consideration Eu-
ropean problems but will also
discuss American problems such
as the upbringing of the Jewish
youth of America, Jewish cul-
turei in America and Jewish edu-
cation in America.
Therefore, I do say that every
Jew should be more interested in
the Jewish Congress as this is q
part of our life and existence.

TVHERE still are many peo-
pie who look upon the doc

pie VINO look upon tne ooc-
u. trine of evolution with
misgiving and doubt. They fear
they may lose their religious con-
victions if they admit all life
that exists now was evolved from
a stage of low development. They
cannot bring themselves to ad-
nit that the strong feed upon
the weak.
There is, in reality, no great
er moral incentive than the
knowledge of human develop
ment from the lowest stage of
life to its present high point Of
perfection and the realization
that we owe this development
solely to our own efforts. Evolu-
ton, more than anything else,
proves mans capacity for a still
higher attainment. That he can
go ahead, develop and grow is
demonstrated, proven and guar
anteed by his past.
If it were not for our hazy
knowledge of the evolutionary
doctrine, the future would be
hopeless and discouraging. If
we accept Adam as a man just
as pccfect as the highest type Of
man today, then we have no in
centive to strive for a place up
on a higher plane. If we admit
that the human race, in the thou
sands of years past, has made no
progress, then we cannot hope to
make any advancement in the
years that are to come.
The future of the human race,
the same as the future of ma
tions, is an open book to the OBJ
server of the past.
The theory that Adam rep
human perfection and
that man has made no progress
since the time of the Garden of
Eden is inconceivable and inn
possible when we consider the
wonderful improvement made in
plant snd animal life as demon
strated every day. The work of
q Burbank should be sufficient
proof that nature is ever ready
to assist and accept suggestions
for betterment:
Anthropology, as the study of
the development of man is
known, gives US unlimited faith
in the future and it helps rs to
become more religious. IT af-
fords conclusive proof of the
of DR.. Duren J. H.
Ward, the Denver philosopher,
that science does not conflict
with any religious belief.
The keynote to the whole uni
verse seems to be a tendency to
acquire the attributes of a high
er power which we call God and
lationship as expressed in the re-
Iigious belief that man is Great
ed in His image. Even the con-
tention of the agnostic that the
reverse is true-that mans ideas
of God are only the reflex of his
own self-does not alter this con-

100 WITNESSES
 CALLED FOR TRIAL
First for State Take Stand Today
 in Klan Case
By The Associated Press.

By Ihe Associated Press.
 Atlanta, Ga. Dec. 13.-The first of approximately one hundred witnesses summoned for the state in the trial of Philip E. Fox for the staying of William S. Coburn here November 5 will take the stand today.
 Coburn was d leader of the insur- gent faction of the Ku Klux Klan adhering to the standard of William Joseph Simmons, emperor and found- CT, and Fox was publicity director of the administration forces of the in visible empire.
 It is the first time, available rec ords show, that a klansman has been placed on trial for taking the life of a fellow. It has caused a general rally to the factional flags and chief tains of the insurgent forces are re- ported figuring prominently in the prosecution of the case.
 The tenets of the invisible empire according to Simmons, calls for the banishment of klansman if he is charged with breaking a civil law. If proven innocent, reinstatement is in order, declared the emperor.
 It is not known whether that part of the klan's doctrines has been car ried out or if Fox is receiving aid of the administrative forces in hisd C. fense.
 klans from all sections of the country are reported to have sent their leaders here to listen to the tes- timony
 The prosecution refused to discuss early today the probable lead if would take, and the defense has not indicated what justification it will present.

 MT. Weaver was indicted last Fri day, according to an official an- nouncement yesterday.

Her present whereabouts is not known to the solicitor generals office here.
 The initial session of the trial yes- terday was devoted to the selection of a jury.

tense of selling intoxicating liquor;
the facts being that the testimony
showed that, or would have shown
that. the defendant was approached
by an Individual, who sought to pur-
chase liquor from him and that pur-
suant to such solicitation, the defen-
dant agreed to sell the person a
quart of "Shiny," for which ne
then accepted the price OF $500,
and that it was agreed that the
defendant should place the liquor
beneath a dead log where the
purchaser should come and find it;

the would-be-purchaser went to the
dead log, but failed to find any
"Shiny" and Immediately thereafter
reported the matter to the Grand
Jury, which returned an indictment
against the defendant, petitioner
here, and as the term of court was
rather a bad one for any fellow ac-
cused of having dealings in OF
with intoxicating liquors, the defen-
dant, by advice Of counsel, entered
a plea Of guilty, and was fined 500
