This process continued untfl they

needs Of such q creature as man was
becoming-the outstanding, and al
most the only, tool-using animal IN
creation.
The kangaroo and the jumping
mouse are descendants Of four footed
ground dwellers. When they replaced
running ON four legs to jumping on
two legs as q means Of locomotion
their front legs also began to recede
through disuse. But they did not

Something Of this racial history Il
repeated in the life history of the
individual, DR.. Davenport said. The
reduction from the primitive long
arms, evidence o. which is found In
human beings before birth, has only

Irritability Restored.
DR.. Osterhout's contention that the
inhibition Of stimulation is caused by
the teaching out of the cell Of an un-
known substance necessary for the re-
distribution Of potassium was upheld
by gently pinching the cell--the nitella
cell is large enough to be pinched-
and thus forcing the potassium redis-
tribution. The cellular irritability was
Immediately restored by this mechan-

Evolution-the process by which
Nature has built up from simple be-
ginnings the incomprehensibly varied
and intricate structure Of life on
earth-was presented in new light
before the academy today by DR..
Henry Fairfield Osborn Of the Ameri-
can Museum of Natural History.
Challenges HYPOTHESIS
DR.. Osborn, who has won world
wide recognition as one Of the fore
most of living paleontologists. boldly
challenged all existing hypothesis to
explain the mechanisms by which this
mysterious principle has worked
through the aeons since life began,
with the continuous appearance of new
and disappearance Of old forms of life.
During the past IS years, he said.
at has been conclusively demon
strated that there are two entirely
distinct principles in evolution" One
is the principle Of variation by which
changes arise through modification of
existing characters. In some cases
they can be traced step by step
throughout their history. They can be
explained, although not always very
satisfactorily, by the evolutionary hy-
potheses in the text books-such as
Darwin's theory Of change through
natural selection and survival Of the
f1ttest, La Marck's earlier concept of
the inheritance Of acquired charac-
ters. or by the idea of a guiding prin-
ciple inherent in life.
New Characters Unexplained.
But none of these hypothesis, he
declared, in any way explain the ap-
pearance Of some character which is
entirely new, rather than q change in
something which has gone before.
"Such origins thus far have only
been demonstrated positively In q
limited number of characters" DR.
Evening star., 1934-04-23

Osborn said, but there Is the newt
able inference that this originative OF
creative principle will ultimately ex-
tend to q much larger number Of
characters. II 1t does 1t will inevitably
revolutionize our whole biological
philosophy"
"In the meantime let us drop all
these senescent hypotheses as to the
nature and causes of evolution and
make wholly fresh start along en-
tirely new and original lines Of obser-
vation and experiment, directed
toward the discovery of the now
wholly unknown factors in this most
mysterious Of natural phenomena.
DR.. Osborn took occasion to warn
his colleagues against various evolu-
ton cults which have arisen around
some Of the old theories. He quoted
Huxley that science commits suicide
when 1t adopts q creed"
I'VE await" he said, 1.-The arrival of
master mind which can synthesize
the generalizations and inductions
now being made In widely separate
fields Of research. The facts are null
tiplying at an enormous rate and
from these facts hasty inductions are
being made which are more or less
biased by preconceptions in the mind
Of the observer, and also by the spe-
cial field Of research In which the OBJ
servations have been made"
It's lucky for man that his remote
ancestors lived in trees.
To their long residence among the
green boughs he owes his arms. Had
they been four-footed creatures
dwelling on the ground, we might
have had stunted, almost useless arms
like those of the kangaroo or Of the
jumping mouse.
This was explained before the
academy by DR.. Charles B. Daven-
port, biologist of the Carnegie Insti-
tuition Of Washington, who reported
on a study of the arm and leg de-
velopment both of the individual and
of the human race.
The monkey-like tree-dwellers from
whom man sprang needed long arms
to leap from branch to branch. They
may have been quite similar in ap-
pearance to the orang -outangs or glib
bons Of today. who spend most Of their
lives in the tree-topS. AS every zoo
visitor knows, one of the most striking
features Of these apes is the long.
slender arm. 1t has been developed,
supposedly through natural selection
and the survival Of the flttest, through
countless generations of arboreal life.
But when the direct ancestors of the
human race came down from the tree

mails these long arms proved a dis

BATON ROUGE, La. April 23.-
Speaking here yesterday, State Sena-

Long leader, and Harry D. Wilson
commissioner of agriculture, charged
and denied that "Longisrn" was the
issue in the sixth district congressional
run-off primary Tuesday in which
Sanders and Wilson are the candi-
dates.
This is a fight Of machine politics
against independence" said Sanders,
who ridiculed Wilson's declaration that
he was an independent candidate.
Sanders charged Wilson was brought
out by the Long machine and Is being
backed by the State pay roll In the
sixth district"
Both charges were denied by Will
son, who declared: "I deny am the
candidate of Huey P. Long or the ad-
ministration. I am the peoples can
didate. have always been inde-
pendent I will take advice, but no
orders from anybody"
An intensive campaign on the part
of both candidates will end tomorrow,
and Tuesday will be decided the DEM

Kemp, who died last June.
Both Sanders and the late Repre-
sentative's widow failed of recogni-
ton after being named in rival elec-
tions last December. The House held
the elections illegal. Mrs. Kemp was
supported by Long.

Whats the idea?" asked Buster,
and he wasn't very polite.
why can't we go out and play?"
asked Custer.
Because you dropped crumbs" !"
said Uncle Wiggily. when you eat
your food you should keep close to
the table and not squirm around in
your chairs. Then you would drop
crumbs on the table cloth where
they are supposed to drop. Eat
without dropping crumbs if you
can. But if you must drop crumbs,
drop them on the cloth"
Didn't Know That
"Golly!" exclaimed Buster as he
looked under his chair. Il didn't
know we dropped SO many crumbs!'
Neither did Il" said his brother.
What must we do about them?"
he asked his father.

cheerful. Come on, Custer!" he
called to his brother. We'll sweep

So the two rabbit boys used the

for boys and their father said to
his wife as they hoped out to
play:
"You see how easy it was to cure

But wait and see what happens

ENCOURAGING SIGNS


Yesterdays storm, which sent
nearly three-quarters of an inch of
rain down on Ell Centro in less than
half an hour, indicates that at least a
start has been made in breaking up
the long drought which has proved
so costly to Imperial Valley.
1t has tried hard to rain for over
week. 1t has rained in other parts
of the Colorado river basin, all of
which gives hope that it will rain
hard enough and long enough in the
upper basin to send plenty of water
down the river to the valley.
The general reaction to yesterdays
rain was optimistic. Perhaps one
got a soaking, or had to wade
through plenty of mud-something
that still continues today-but what
of it? City lawns and trees, which
have been getting by" on a mini
mum of water, today show the ben
eficial results of the watering they
received yesterday.
Reports from the Colorado river
territory indicate "flash flood" on
its way. Much of this may be lost
travelling down the dry river bed,
but like yesterdays rain it is start
er that gives hope of better things.
1t is nearly September l. Back in
July some looked toward August l,
with fear, wondering if the valley
could continue until then. Happily
they were few in numbers. We have
come through July and August,
somewhat battered but still able to
keep on going. We will get through
September, and October also, and
the rest of the months to come. Not
even water shortage can stop a
