BIBLE MUST WIN OVER SCIENCE
Such Is Declaration Of PreSby'
 terians,.OppOse Liberals

Cardiff, Wales, June 2s P1--in a contest between the Bible and science the Bible must win, and 1t must remain unchanged as divine word speakers maintained at today's meeting of the Alliance of Presbyte- rian churches.
 The Rev. Clarence E. N. Macart- rey of Philadelphia said The 1 liberal Protestant churches are slow ly losing their faith in the scrip lures. and as they lost their faith in the scriptures they are slowly losing their religion"
 He maintained that the Protestant churches came into existence "as a sublime witness to the Bible as the only rule of faith and practice" but that now some of those churches are departing from the reformation. A new critical school of Presbyterian churches in Great Britain, he con- tinued, has discredited the Bible instead of solving the difficulties between the Bible and science"
 He said themost dangerous at- tack on the Bible is made by those within the churches who claim that only by "reinterpretations" can there be mediation between the Bible and the "modern mind'" This attack he described as a terrible monster which now threatens to destroy Christianity after it has survived the shocks and storms of the ages"
 Dr. Mccartney insisted that the new thought gets rid of the diff : culties in the Bible by getting rid of inc Eible. and makes human reason. not the word of God, the , final authority. Thus the world Is plunged back into the abyss of hu- man ignorance and despair where we can hear only the taunting mock ing echoes of our own cries in the darkness"
 He appealed for a continuance of belief in the divine origin of the Bible, said the changing attitude Of some Protestant churches is the most significant thing In religious thought since the reformation and declared that Protestant churches in the United States have not gone far in the new thoughts" as have some of the English churches,
 It was indicated that the del' ates were strongly opposed to the dis crediting of the Bible by any rev. elaiion of science"
 Most of the members of the c"ur- : cil Of the alliance agreed to ar 'x- pression 10 the effect that The , Bible should he fundunntnal dcc- trine. not 10 be changed " ITO. gressive thought alorS other hues.

MILK DEFENDED
 AS GOOD FOOD
Health Men Take Exception to Some Doctors

New York. June 2s--The excel lence of milk as a food was affirmed yesterday by many health experts in answer 10 statements made by Dr. John P. Sutherland, former Dean of the Boston Medical University School of Medicine. who, in an ad- dress last week before the American Institute of Homeopathy. raised doubt whether milk should be gen. orally used for human consumption.
 Announcement of their opinions was made by the Producers and Consumers Organizing committee which aims at consolidation of the food distributors agencies in the metropolitan area.
 Three of the principal statements by Professor Sutherland in his ad- dress were:
 Milk WAS intended to serve as a food only during infancy.
 Milk of one species was not in- tended to be used by other species except when closely related.
 Milk was not intended to serve as food for the adult of the species.
 Among the experts from whom opinions on Professor Sutherland's address were obtained by the com mittee were:
 Dr. Charles E. North, secretary of the National Commission on Milk Standards, who organized and direct cd the study of pasteurization car ried on under tho auspices of the United States Public Health Service; Dr. William H. Park, director Of the Research Laboratories of the New York Health Department; Graham Lusk, professor of food and chomis- try at the Cornell University Medi- cal college; Dr. s. Josephine Baker, former chief of the division of child hygiene of the New Health Depart ment, and Dr. Walter Lester Carr, secretary of the Milk Commission of the New York county medical so- ciety.
 
 city," said William c. Phillips, chair man of the committee, have a deep and vital interest in milk and a right to know what is the truth about 1t, It is extremely unfortunate, from the standpoint of sound public edu- cation, that the single opinions of isolated individuals should chance to secure broad public attention for an attack on the food value of milk, when the weight of scientific opin. ion not only favors the use of milk in the dietary of old and young, but strongly approves a material in- crease in the amount of milk now used, as a public health measure. Dr. North's statement said: After twenty-five years of intimate study of the milk supplies of American cities and an extensive practice in the supervision of sanitary milk production and numerous surveys of the relation of milk to public health and infant mortality. am con- vinced that milk is the most i'm portant and valuable of human foods.'
 Dr. Park said: The statement by Dr Sutherland that milk is only suitable for the species that pro duce it and is not suitable for the human adult is against the evidence that has been accumulated, It Is recognized that children who can. not receive human milk do perfectly well on cows milk and goats milk when thess are properly prepared and it is universal experience that adult human beinss do extremely well on a cows milk diet when that is necessary"

Canton, Juns zs (Delayed) P- Letters received in shameen from the city (Canton) indicate that the inhabitants realize that Tuesdays at- tack on Shameen, the foreign con- cession, was begun by Chinese.

 All streets approaching Shameen have been virtually deserted, observ- CTS at the concession detected a large movement of Chinese troops.
