Silk is going to be made from,
cornsta1ks, and promises to become
AS cheap as calico. Experts who are
backing the newly invented process
say there are enough cornstalks in
Nebraska alone to make silk stock

world
But silk is only one Of the valuable
products to be obtained from the. silo

to make enough acetic acid to- sup
ply the world, enough varnish to coat
all the furniture in the country,
millions of feet of insulating lum-
Der, alcohol enough to furnish fuel
for thousands of motor cars, and a
large share Of the worlds supply Of
paper.
It is estimated that 49, OO.O 900
pounds Of cornstalks are burned each
year. If this supply could be turned
into useful by-products farmers
would receive more for the stalks
than they now do for the corn.

Charges NoIIe Pressed When
State Supreme Court
Grants New Trial.


NASHVILLE, Tenn, January Ia
Tennessees Supreme Court today pro
claimed the fundamental soundness of
the states famous law against teach
ing the theory of evolution in State
supported schools. AT the same time
it reversed the verdict of guilty
against Prof. John T. Scopes. whose
case was on appeal. and then barred
recourse TO the United States SUI
pleme Court by recommending that
the case be nolle pressed instead OF
retired. This was done late today and
the case dismissed
Without q dissenting vote the court
recommended to l.. y. Smith. State At.
torney General. that the peace and
dignity OF the State would best be
served by nolle PROSE-, thus ending
what the court termed this bizarre
case once and for all Mr. Smith an
nounced he would follow the recon-.
mendation. and not seek a retrial.
The opinion declaring the law con
st1tutional was delivered by Chief Jus
tee Green and concurred i'm by two
other justices. but Justice McKinney
dissented on the ground that the act s
uncertainty Of meaning rendered il
invalid
Fine Held Too High
The conviction of Prof. Scopes who
was a science teacher in Dayton High
School, was reversed because Judge
John r. Raulston, presiding. fined
MN 500, when the jury failed to fix
nne. The high court held that only
a jury may fix a fine of more than
$50 under Tennessee laws
Whlle obviously disappointed over
the action of the court, counsel for
the Scopes defense pointed to certain
features as indicating a partial vic
tory for the opponents of the law.
Expressing satisfaction with the dis
senting opinion of Justice Mckinney.
they viewed as favorable also a part
of Justice Chambliss' opinion. which
differed in one phase from the ma
jority decision.
Justice ChambIiss. while agreeing
with Chief Justice Green and Justice
Cook as to the organic soundness of
the law. declared his belief that the
act only prohibits the teaching of

creation of man"

Judge Chambliss thinks the act only

"All of us agree that the judgment
herein must be reversed on account
of the error of the trial judge in at
tempting himself TO fix a fine of $500
upon Scopes Under the constitution
of Tennessee a fine in excess of $50
can only be assessed by jury. The
jury in this case returned verdict OF
guilty, but did not assess the fine, and
The judge undertook to do this himself.
