DR.. Fay Cooper-Cole

Dr. Fay CooperCole. anthropologist
of the University of Chicago, in his
statement, declared that anthropol-
ogists accept evolution as the most
satisfactory explanation Of the OBJ
served facts relating to the universe,
the world and all life on it.

man, mans body and mans society" !"
said DR.. Cole. land in this way he
finds himself working side by side
with biologist and geologist."
The statement told of the study of
mans body by instruments revealing
history collected in skeletons every
where. The anthropologist also works
with the anatomist, he said.
DR.. Cole called attention to the fact
that man closely resembles certain
members of the animal world in every
bone and organ of his body. Differ
ences are noted. but they are differ
ences Of degree rather than Of kind

evolutionary point Of view must be
emphasized for any understanding Of
the growth Of the universe, of the
earth, Of plants or animals; for any
proper grasp Of the facts of structure
or function OF living bodies as in

of normal or diseased minds, must

While he said there were varied
opinions as to the causes OF evolution,
he asserted the fact of evolution-"of

HERRIOT WANTS
 GERMANS BARRED
Council Of Ambassadors to Dis,
 cuSs Foch Report Monday
By Tho Associated Press.

By Tho Associated Press.
 Paris, Feb. 26.--The allied coun- cll of ambassadors, which will meet here on Monday of next week, now Is expected to have before 1t the conclusions of Marshal Foch and his associates of the allied war com mittee on the report of the allied military control mission regarding the state of Germany's disarmament.
 The present intention of the am- bassadors is to take up the report in connection with the conclusions the military experts have reached upon it. England is still pressing for an allied conference, with participation by the Germans, though thus far the negotiations to that end have re- mained unofficial.
 If such a conference Is held it will be in Brussels, in the belief of officials circles, but the French gov ernment is in favor of letting the report Follow the usual procedure through the council of ambassadors, with intervention by the govern ments after the ambassadors have reached their conclusions.
 Premier Herriot will in any case. it, is thought, resist the idea of in- viting the Germans to participate in a conference on the ground that it is necessary for the allies to be in agreement among themselves first as to the attitude to take toward the German government.

IDENTITY CARDS
 | TO COST MORE
Travellers in France Will Pay 50
 Francs for Them

Paris, Feb. 26.-The chamber of deputies has adopted tho article in the revenue bill raising the fee for an identity card--which all foreign visitors intending to stay in France more than a fortnight must obtain within 4S hours of their arrival from 10 francs to 60, plus supple mentary taxes of eight and four francs for the department and city of issue respectively, making a charge of 72 francs in all.
 The cards are valid for three years, when they must be renewed, and the fee for renewal Is fixed at 200 francs, the object being to distinguish be- tween mere tourists and more or less permanent residents who, 1t is felt, ought to be asked to make a contri- button to the French revenue over and above the ordinary taxes which they pay like other inhabitants, since neither they nor their children are liable 10 military service.
 Exception is made in the cases of foreign students and workmen, for whom the fee is fixed at 10 francs either for issuance of the card or renewal.
 It is estimated that this tax on for eigners will yield from 20o,OOO,000 to 0,o00,000 francs annually.

REVENUE BILL
 IN FRENCH HOUSE
Tax on Capital' Is Cry Raised
 by Deputies

Paris, Feb. 26.--Tho cry "a tax on capital!" thoroughly woke up the French deputies in the midst of iheir long night session held to ex. pcdite the revenue bill.
 The cry was raised by a member of the opposition in reference to an .urticle providing that total or par tial reimbursement of stock by com. panies should be subject to the in. come tax, the government maintain ing that there was growing custom of companies allowing profits to ac- cumulate for several years and then distributing them under the guise of reimbursement of stock. thus elud- ing the tax.
 Deputy Flandin. a prominent member of the opposition shouted that the article amounted to a levy on capital and that it had been dic- lated by the socialists.
 Premier Herriot hotly retorted that the article was aimed not at honest folk but at tax dodgers. It was in the interests of public mor- ality. "..'
 The debate waxed warm, but fi- nally the article was voted after the government had consented to modi- fications in the text to satisfy minor objections and make the range of it's application clearer, Racing through several more articles, the chamber reached the customs tariff, section three.
 There was every prospect that the deputies would sit long after dawn.
