THOUSANDS THRONG TOWN
WHERE TEACHER TAUGHT
THE THEORY OF EVOLUTION

staff Professor John r. Neal, CHIEF
counsel, Clarence Darrow, Dudley
Field Malone, Bainbridge Colby:
and others in various capacities.
will seek to show
First, that the theory of evolu-
ton is by no means denial OF the
story Of Divine creation; e
Second, that education in scien.
tffic subjects should not be denied
the school children of the United
States because it occasionally en-
ters upon controversial ground.
To Appea!
If Scopes is convicted, as near
ly everyone believes he will be at
this trial, he will be subject to 4
fine of from $10O to $500. An
appeal will be taken, and it is in
their arguments for the defense
hope to do their most telling
work.
The prosecution today W as
represented by Attorney General
Frank M. Thompson, with asso-
|ciate. The Commoner has thrown
himself into the fight with an en-
thusiasm matched only by that
|of the counsel for the defense.
Bryan's slogan, upon which he
was expected to expound when his
turn came to speak, was:-
''The hand which writes the pay
checks should rule the schools.
The teachers are employees Of the
taxpayers and should no more be
allowed to teach what they per-
sonally wish than a clerk should
be allowed to dictate the policy of
bank. The greatest menace we
have to face today is the sub
stitution of education for re-
lligion."
To which Professor Neal. who
was a professor in the College of
Law of Tennessee University pre-
vious to his removal incident to a
somewhat similar dispute over
freedom of education, replies:-
"The question is whether the
Tennessee legislature has the pow
Ter to prevent the young minds of
Tennessee from knowing what has
been thought and said by the
worlds greatest scientists, thus
preventing them from forming
their own judgement in regard to
! questions of life and SCIENCE"
International., 1925-07-13
Bryan Says

The hand which writes the pay
checks should rule the schools. A
majority Of the people of the nation
believe in the Bible. The disgrace
is not the law Of Tennessee, signed
by the governor and passed by the
legislature-the disgrace is that any
one would make such a law neces'
sary.
The teachers are employees of the
taxpayers, and should no more oe
allowed to teach what they person
ally believe than a clerk should be
allowed to dictate the policy OF a
bank. The disgrace is that teachers
should betray the trust that is I'M
posed in them by the taxpayers
I believe that the greatest menace
we have today is the substitution OF
education for religion.
