NEW YORK STATE TAKES
 PRECAUTIONARY STEPS
Will Inspect Buildings To Guard Against Disasters Like That
 In Boston.

Albany N, r., July 14 Rl--A new code governing safety provisions for places of public assembly. designed 10 prevent such catastrophes as the collapse of the Pickwck club build. ing at Boston July 4, has been put in effect by the state industrial com mission.

QUAKES BEGAN
 YEAR AGO TODAY
Quarter of Population Felt
 Tremors During Year

Boston, July 14 Rt-Just a year ago today an earthquake shock in the northeastern part of this coun- try and Canada opened a twelve month called "the most significant year in the history of earthquake hazard" the Engineering Economies foundation points out in a statement published today. The foundation is engaged in study of earthquake hazard.
 ''In this year itself more than a quarter of the people of the United States. and Canada have felt the ef- feet of earthquake shock" the re- port continues, land of this great group of men, women and children. those in New England, New York, Montana and Alberta realized, in many cases for the first time, that their own areas were not immune to earthquake shock.
 When we examine the story farther, however. we find not only that the United States has been widely affected. but also that earth uuakes in many lands, especially In Japan, Mexico, South America, Ja- maica and the channel islands, have played their part in the widespread story. Measured by number, or measured by difference of zones of origin this year ranks with the most important of all known years of earthquake. Measured by the sig nifcance of the lessons taught, it ranks first. No year has given more lessons to mankind of the possible dangers of earthquake shock or of tho way to meet those dangers. In brief, no single year since continu- ous study of this subject opened 100 wears ago has given more lessons to mankind of the ways In which men die or suffer under conditions or earthquake. shock, or Of the possi- bihty of lessening death, loss ana suffering under such conditions. For all these reasons this year has been called by many "the most significant wear in the history of earthquake hazard"

Prosecution Has All the Innings

DAYTON, Tenn, July 20 P- Kirtley F. Mather, chairman of the department of geology of Harvard, was a witness for the prosecution at the Scopes trial today. He said: ''The Bible is a text book of religion, not of biology or astronomy or ge- ology Moreover, it is just exactly the Biblical spiritual truth concern ing God, which rings clearly and un- mistakably through the theory of . evolution. With it modern science is in perfect accord. The Bible does not state the world was made 5000 years ago, but concerning the time of early history, the Bible is abso- Iutely silent Science may conclude the earth is 100 million or 100 billion years old, but the conclusion does not affect the Bible. Another reason for the modern district of evolution is the idea that it displaces God. It is not a power nor force, but it is a process and method. God is power and force. Many believe that science is truly the discoverer of the evolu- tion process and the methods which God in his spiritual power and eter- nal force has used to effect his will in Nature"

Prominent Churchmen Tell Views to Jury About Religion As Affected
 by Evolution Theory

DAYTON, Tenn, July 20 (P)-Wil- liam J. Bryan declared today that the Scopes evolution case uncovered a conspiracy against the Bible and Christianity. He said multitudes had been deceived by the term evolution, but that their eyes were now opening. Evolution as taught by scientists is an imaginary process whole unproven that begins with life, but does not at tempt to explain life. He asserted that if the evolutionary process is true, man has come up through the animals below him by the cruel law under which the strong kill off the weak. Evolutionists bring their doc { trines before the public in a jeweled case, and praise it as if sacred. They do not exhibit, as Darwin did, it's bloody purpose. They do not boast that barbarism is the only true ex- pression; they do not tell the public that Darwin believed in personal God and in the strict literal truth of every vord iE the Bible, but was led away from Christianity by evolution and died antagonistic to the true faith. He declared that evolutionists were not honest with the public. Even evolutionist ministers assured their congregations that there is no incon- sistency between Darwinism and Christianity. Ministers should tell their congregations that evolution leads logically to agnistism.
