New instruments in Next
World Conflict Will
End Supremacy.

Science has devised instruments
of war SO terrible that another
world conflict like the World war
would mean the end of supremacy
of the white race.
This was the warning given XII
wanians by DR.. Arthur Woodford
McDavitt, Muncie, pastor Of ST..
Johns Universalist church, in an
address on What Science Has Done
to Our Thinking"
These terrible war devices even
tually will force the world into
practice of brotherhood of man, he
said. 1t has helped already to bring
about this result by inventions Of
telephone, radio, and rapid travel.
1T is one of the habits of our
time" DR.. McDavitt said, ito con-
denim scientists as a destructive
force. In reality, scientists are
reaching out to bring to us the
things that make life more worth
living.
of it took an infinite God to
create the world of our childhood,
surely it took an even greater GOD
to create the world Of today, as re-
vealed to us by scientists with their
microscopes and telescopes"
In describing some of the facts
determined by scientists, he told of
attempt of scientists to devise a
means of photographing events
which occurred thousands Of years
ago.
I'm photographing Columbus
crossing the ocean, he said, "scien-
lists would focus their cameras on
star 100000 light years away. A
light year is six trillion miles. They
base their belief this is possible on
the theory light waves travel in
waves around the world continu-
ously after an event."
Support for the Rosemary schol-
arship fund, which was started last
year to send a worthy Indianapolis
high school student to an Indiana
college or university with a $500
