ATLANTA, Ga, Nov. 25.-
Plans of the Atlanta, New
York and New Orleans cotton
brokers, who were indicted
here yesterday on charges of
dealing in futures on mar
gins" in alleged violation of
the Georgia statutes, to throw
the entire matter into the fed
eral court were divulged here
tonight in a statement by N.
L. Vickery, a broker. Mr..
Vickery was one of those in
dicted yesterday and is chair
man of a committee of brokers
named in the indictments.
The brokers will appeal to the federal
courts, Mr.. Vickery said, for an injunc-
ton to halt Solicitor General John A.
Boykin in his efforts to bring the eases
to trial. Mr.. Vickery said that appeals
for the injunction will be made under
the Smith-Lever cotton futures law, UNI
der which, it is said, the New York and
New Orleans cotton exchanges operate
Counsel Retained
The brokers have retained former
Governor Thomas w. Hardwick to con-
duct their case in conjunction with " III
field p Jones, attorney for the Atlanta
Commercial exchange, and Judge Arthur
Powell, who is attorney for four houses
operating in Atlanta which were not
named in the indictments.
The total of brokers indicted was
brought to 46 today with the indictment
Of DIR. ]. +. Buchanan and James Smith,
said to be local brokers.
Brokers tonight were confident their
petition for federal injunction directed
against Solicitor General Boykin would
be granted, but they said in event it was
not, recourse would be taken to higher
federal courts They said they were
prepared to take the matter to the SUI
preme court of the United States if
necessary.
BOykin Ready
These declarations met Mr.. Boykin
in a fight mood. iii be right there to
meet any fight they make" he declared.
This is matter the federal government
has nothing to do with. 1t is 4 state
law that has been violated and is purely
state matter and the government has
no right to interfere" Attorney Jones,
in statement issued late today, said
that the statutes of the state were aimed
at bucket-shops and not at legitimate
brokerage businesses.
Mr. Boykin today announced that he
had recommended to Governor Clifford
Walker that a statewide inquiry under
direction of the governor into cotton
brokers be instituted. 1t was said ut

 Natural History: IL. D. Trinity Col
 Iege, Cambridge:\ IL. D. Princeton
 University; IL. D. Columbia Univer-
 sity; Hon. D. Sc., Cambridge Univer-
 sity and Yale; Research Professor of

 Scriptural quotation:
 "It were better for him that mill stone were hanged about his neck, and he be cast into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones."
 Millions of children visit the Museum annually and attend the lectures. Noth- ing is set forth that any intelligent ob- server could not find for himself in nature.
 was brought up in religious atnos- phere by wonderful Christian mother, who taught me above all things the truth. The truth is that the ascent of man has al- ways been and always will be long strug- gle between his higher spiritual and moral nature and his purely physical nature. It is of the utmost importance that tbfs truth should be taught by the church.
 It is because I am interested in pre- serving the religious spirit in America, not in destroying it, that l take issue with MT. Bryan, Dr. Straton and the fundameh- talists.
 That Dr. Straton may avoid all religious doubts and difficulties Gin the face of evolution), he should first accept as the foundation of his faith the creed which runs through the Old and New Testa- ment, "The heavens and earth are full of Thy glory" Without this creed, you may be an atheist or agnostic. With this creed you are in secure citadel of falth' because, when discovery follows discov- cry and you are obliged to surrender the preconceptions of man in his ignorance, as to the sun moving around the earth, as Joshua believed; as to the flatness of the earth; as to the universe being formed in six days of twenty-four hours; as to all the millions of species of animals and plants being made within four days; as to man being made in the image of God in one day; as to woman being made out of the rib of man-you remain serene be- cause you humbly accept the universe and man as God willed them.
 You may be convinced that your mis- givings and prejudices against nature will all be resolved, if you simply repeat to yourself, "I accept nature as God made 1t; truth is truth and must prevail"
 Nothing should be more clearly or more emphatically taught to our youth than that the Bible is the story of the spiritual and moral progress of man, in less degree his intellectual progress-in these senses a perpetual source of inspiration, of religious consolation and the most per manent foundation of conduct.
 But no child should be taught that the Bible tells the story of Nature as it has been revealed to us through two thousand years of observation, and especially dur ing the last one hundred years. There was no curiosity of nature among the writers of the Bible, as there is little natural curiosity among Orientals to-day. When Mir. Bryan or Dr. Straton observes that evolution finds no support in the / evolution ends in atheism.

By Dr. William K. Gregory, (CuratOT of the American Museum of Natural HiStoryk Department of
 Comparative 4 AnAtomy.)

DELFT in evolution is not incom- D patible with religious belief. Many find no difficulty in recOnciling their belief in religion with thnir belief in evolution. They think that the power which was able to elevate man through
 The essence of religious spirit Is rev erence toward creation. But what is back of the plan of creation? God? Maybe.
 Certainly as mans brain developed, the skull, which is the brain wrapping, grew. We are willing to accept facts as they are. The story of man rising out of dust and woman rising from mans rib is con tfaTy to evidence. If the evolutionary explanation is not true, then what is the explanation?
The Birmingham age-herald., 1924-06-15
By Dr. Frederick A. Lucas, (Honorary Director of the American
 Museum of Natural HiStory.)

OF course, the Museum accepts the V theory of evolution. That is &C., cepted by all scientific men. The dis cussion is not now so much as to the fact of evolution, as to how it took place.
 The antis have no case, and 50 they abuse the Museum.

STONE PLEASED
BY COURT DECISION

Cleveland. o.. Oct. 21.-Warren s.
Stone. president of the Brotherhood
Of Locomotive Engineers, today issued
the following statement on yester-
days United States supreme court de-
cision that railway employees who
joined the shopmen's strike In 1922
we're entitled to jury trial when
charged with contempt of court.
Every good citizen. regardless of
whether he belongs to labor union,
ought to be gratified that the United
States supreme court has upheld the
provisions of the Clayton antitrust
act requiring jury trials for workers
charged with contempt of court dur
ing industrial conflicts.
"The decision throws an interesting
sidelight upon illegality of ex-Attor-
ney General Daugherty's injunction
against the striking railway shopmen.
1t was upon the appeal of some of
these victims of government by in
junction that the decision has been
rendered"
