inches of snow on the post.

MASS. AUTO LAW
 DEFENDED TODAY
Commissioner Says That Two
 Years Trial Is Necessary

Boston, Jan. 1s R-The new au- tomobile compulsory liability insur- ance law and the premium rates charged were defended today by Wesley Monk, state insurance con- missioner. at a hearing before the joint committee on insurance on a bill which would create state fund for payment of damages to persons injured by motor vehicles in place of the compulsory insurance. The premium rates fixed by Commission CT Monk had been criticized as dis criminatory against taxicabs and au- tomobile renting companies.
 Mir. Monk said: 'To majority of the auto owners of this state these rates seem excessive because they never had any insurance before. Yet these rates are. in Boston, 25 per cent less than the rates insurance companies have been charging, and outside of Boston about seven or eight per cent less"
 Urging that two years were neces- sary for a fair trial of the law, first of it's kind in the country, Mir. Monk said: The motor vehicle own CTS of Massachusetts are going to make their own rates. If they are careful, they will reduce the rates. If they arc careless, they will in- crease them."

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Dec. 26 CR)-
With the word evolution" absent from
their program, hundreds of workers in
all branches of science assembled here
tonight for the opening of the 84th
annual convention of the American As
sociation for the advancement of
science.
The opening session took place in
the auditorium of the War Memorial
building, which occupies the square
in front of the state capital where, a
few years ago, the most bitterly con-
tested of the anti-evolution laws was
enacted. The scientists were well
coined on behalf of the state by Judge
Grafton Green, chief justice of the
Tennessee supreme court, who was one
of the majority that upheld the anti
evolution law in the decision on the
Scopes case.
Discussion of evolution was kept off
the program, convention officials eX-
planned, primarily as a mark of court
esy to the Tennessee hosts, and, sec
ondarily, to demonstrate to the peo-
pie of the state that while evolution
