HELD AS ILLEGAL
Supreme Court Rules on An.
dover Harvard Case

BOSTON. Sept, 81 R,-The Massa. 1
.chusetts supreme court today de-
clared void the plan adopted In 1929
Tor close affiiation of the Andoyer
Theological seminary and the Har-
ward Divinity school and the estab-
fishing OF new school TO be known
as the theological school In Harvard
university, NJ.
The court, in Il decision written by
Chief Justice Rugg upheld the con-
tention ofgthe visitors OF the theo-
logical institution in Phillips acad-
envy, Andoyer, who brought suit to
have the plan nullihed, that affilia-
ton of the two schools was contrary
TO the purposes of the founders OF
the Andoyor seminary.
The decision says that the fixed
purpose as provided by the consti-
tn IN of the seminary was that 1t
should be devoted exclusively 10
teaching in support Of orthodox
evangelical trinitarian tonets and in
opposition to all denominations re-
garded us of a contrary nature.
The nature of the institution as
declared by the founders is the
single end 10 be sought" II says.
the facts found by the master that
there is not now the sharp difference
| between the orthodox or trinitarian
| CongrCgationalists and the liberal OF
| Unitarian Congregationalists that
there was y hen the Andoycr semi
nary was founded. There remains a
fundamental difference between the
two, confined 10 a point Of the field
of systematic theology"
Under the plan adopted in 1877
members Of the Andover seminary
faculty were added to the faculty Of
! the Harvard Divinity school TO make
up the faculty Of the new theologl-
cal school. This school Is described
as non demonstrations in the Har-
ward catalogue. which adds:
1.-THE aim Of its management Is 10
maintain Il school in which the the.
cry and practice of religion shall be
studied in spirit as free as that in
which philosophy, history and class =
cal literature are studied in our coll
leges.'
/ Fred r. Field appointed as mas
ter, reported last January that the
plan of affiliation fulfilled as nearly
as possible under existing conditions
the purposes for which the Dover
seminary was founded.

World Wide Catastrophe

Of Unit.
BY Universal Service.


OAKLAND. Oct. 10.-World-widc
catastrophe will be the result If man
discovers the secret of unlcashing the
limitless power of the atom while in
his present stage of civilization.
When the secret is discovered, if
ever. the discovercr will have in his
hands power to wipe from the face of
the earth, cities, nations and even to
blast the earth.
These were the dire predictions
voiced today by Professor T.. =. Lew
is. chairman of the department Of
physics at the University of Cali
fornia, and internationally recognized
as a leader in research into the atomic
theory.
Professor Lewis pointed out that
scientists throughout the world are
dclving into the mystery Of tho atom.
and are seeking eagerly for tho key
that will reveal its secrets.
"One handful of soil contains
enough atomic energy to blow the
world TO bits he said. should man
ever make the power of the atom his
slave, universal disaster might re-.
suit.
MAN has not yet reached the state
of development where he may be
trusted with control of n force so de-
vastntin..
Science seeks not to bring into
control great destructive power. but
rather to make available n construc-
tive force that will make life easier"

HOUSE At WORK.
ON TAX CUT
MEASURE
Democratic Members Favor
$500, 100000 Reduc-
ton on Incomes.

WASHINGTON. Oct. 19.-CP)--
The first step toward another slash
in the nations tax bill was taken
today with the assembling of the
House ways and means committee.
to consider a downward revision of
the present leyies.
Marking the third time in six years
that the committee has set its hands
10 the task of chopping off some of
the tax burden. the gift to the tsxpay-
ers this time in the form of a reduced
bill for next year promises to be some
where between $300,000,000 and.
500, 100000.
All hands were ready TO advocate
reductions today, including the treas
ury and members of both major par
ties in Congress. Republicans want
cuts totalling between $500, 100000
and S40O.000.0c0, while Democrats,
as represented by their ranking mem
bers on the committee. Representative
Garner of Texas, believe reductions
can be made up to $500. 100000.
OPEN HEARINGS
The committee waited first, how
ever, for the views of Secretary Mel
Ions asked to appear as first on the
list for the public hearings opening
this afternoon and to continue for
two weeks before the committee be-
gins the actual drafting of a new
revenue law. The committee was
called TO convene for an executive ses-
sion early in the day.
Although prior TO appearing before
the committee. Secretary Mellon had
carefully refrained from advancing
any definite tax reduction scheme, the
treasury has estimated that a surplus
of at least S250.000,000 would be
available for revision of the tax rates.
There also had been definite indica-
ton that the treasury would favor
a maximum surtax rate of 20 per cent
instead of the present 40 per cent, as
well as cuts in the normal rates.
OPPOSED BY MELLON
Secretary Mellon made it clear be-
fore going before the committee, that
he is opposed to increasing income
exemptions as advocated by Repre-
sentative Garner and also suggested
by Senator Edge, Republican. of New
Jersey. In letter to the New Jer-
sey senator. replying to his sugges-
ton that all persons with incomes OF
5000 or less be exempted from taxes,
Mr.. Mellon declared the sole result
OF such a change would be an enor-
nous loss of revenue TO the govern
ment without single compensating
advantage" ::
The letter. also is taken as a reply
to Mr.. Gamers proposal TO increase
the exemptions of single persons from
$1,000 to $500 and for married per-
sons from $500 to $4,000, and an.
other by Representative Bacharach OF
New Jersey, Republican member of
the committee. to Increase 1.-THE OK
cmptions to $1,000 and $500 respec-
lively. o-ooo
Besides estimating that a $4,000 ex-
caption applied to all taxpayers
would mean a loss of S16I 100000 III
revenue. Mr.. Mellon declared that as
= matter of policy sit is advisable tu
have every citizen with a stake IN
his country"
