sharing with the great secular forces
of nature in propelling fauna upon
path along which there is no re-
turn.
1--WE must come to the remarkable
conclusion that man has set in mo-
tion forces which, in our era and
mainly IN the last 300 years have
wrought changes which can be COM
pared only with the great secular
changes of world evolution. And
when the ridiculously short span of
his interference is contrasted with
the slowness of natural processes
the probability forces itself upon us
that in a few more thousand years
mans inheritance of the earth the
old order of nature will be super
seded in the faunas of the world by
a new order of mankind"
Process to Continue.
The process of evolution, Prof.
Ritchie continued, may be expected
to continue for the next few thou
sand years in the path of perfecting
man by giving him a bigger and bet
ter brain and more competent So
cial organization. But he insisted,
these things cannot be considered
the ends for which nature is working
in terms of milleniums and he pre-
dicted that man himself probably
will eventually disappear from the
earth, giving way to more competent
organisms.
I'm his short past" he said, man
has been moving upwards towards
higher spiritual, intellectual and
moral standard and the biological
view would be that in the immediate
future, geologically speaking, that
movement will continue and that
for human beings the future lies in
the development and perfection of
social life and in the spreading of
the social ideas to include peoples
and nations as well as individuals.
Yet the unfathomable character
istic of life Is that it is always throw
ing up something new. Evolution

Nothing higher could be imagined
and evolution appeared to have
reached its goal. The same could be
said by their contemporaries OF the
highest creatures at every stage in
the course Of the 1,200, 900 900 years
Of evolution which has led up to
man."
Evening star., 1939-08-31

proceeds not only by permutations
and combinations of the old but
by the emergence of new lines Of
development. We look upon man,
and rightly so, as the crowning
glory OF evolution. Stage by stage
the past has led up to him.
But step back some 10000, 900
years when the great dinosaurs DOM
Evening star., 1939-08-31

mated the earth and nothing higher
than reptiles had been evolved. To
themselves and to the creatures
which shared the world with them
they must have seemed, If they had
any self-consciousness, and indeed
they were the crowning glory Of
creation. Stage by stage the evolu-
ton Of the past led up to them.

Council Holds Special Meeting

A special meeting of the Nome Common Council was called Tues day evening at 7:30 pm, with Mayor Fred Kubon presiding. All members of the council were present.
 The purpose of the meeting was to settle the request of the Nome Motors for 20 feet of the Eagle lot.
 George Madsen and Jack Hur- ley, the committee to whom the matter was left, reported that the Eagles would not consider any offer of less than $3000 for the property in question. The council decided that the amount was unreasonable and that the Nome Motors should be notified to that effect and that there was no more basis for negotiation.

Chamber Holds
 Noon Luncheon

The regular meeting of the Board of Directors of the North western Alaska Chamber of Com merce was held in the Nevada Grill. The minutes of the last meeting. the Ladies Luncheon, were read and approved.
 After disposing of correspond ence and under the reports of committees, Tom Givan, chair man of the committee on Avia- ton and Communication, report ed that he had investigated the matter of the declining poundage in all air mail contracts from Nome to other parts of Seward Peninsula. He has found that the parcel post rates are higher than the express rates and quoted Sev eral instances to show that the shipper was not to blame for talk ing advantage of the saving and recommended that the Chamber take action on the subject and attempt to have the zone rates, as charged in the States, be estab lished in Alaska.
 At present we are charged un der the highest parcel post rates and are in the eighth zone, where if the regular zoning rate were to be applied there would be eight variations in the charges in accordance to the distance. For instance, at the present rates we are charged the same rate for a package to be mailed to Solomon or Council, as if it were shipped to New York. On motion the subject was left in the hands of Secretary Polet to take up with the Territorial Chamber on his trip to Juneau when attend ing the Alaska Planning Council.
 The Committee on the Unem- ployme6t Compensation and Re- lief made a comprehensive report and on motion these subjects were also placed in the hands of the Secretary to take up with the proper authorities while he is in Juneau.
 The next meeting of the Cham Der will be held in the North Pole Bakery and it will be a luncheon presided over by Dir ector Henry Miller.
 The Secretary has been in- Structed to invite Vim. Barber, local representative of the Un- employment Compensation Com to attend said luncheon and tell something about his de partment.
 Tom Givan has volunteered to take over the Secretary's work during the absence of A. Polet.

Harrogate, In the north Of Eng
land, Is a focal point. Hither come
folk in limousines, In trains, In
buses, either for a holiday in a
pleasant town or to take the cure
at one of its ss springs. Mingling
with these people drawn from va
rious classes, one gets a good slant
on British thought and feeling.
After the last World war got
under way, the reproach was often
leveled at the British that, IL they
had let Kaiser wilhelm know they
would fight him If he made war,
there would have been no war.
Today, faced with the dreadful
possibility Of another world con-
flict, the British, taking q lesson
from their own experience, are
saying that America could stop the
war:
~ BY making 1t known to Hit
Ter and Mussolini that In event of
strife in Europe, America will
stand beside England and France.
(The better-informed realize that
neither the president nor the SEN
ate could legally make such
threat.)
(2) BY revamping the neutral
ity laws so that he who has the
cash and the ships can make I'M
limited purchases in the American
market. The English argue that If
belligerents were allowed to buy
goods in America, provided they
paid for them outright and carried
the stuff away In their own ships
at their own risk, America could
not become involved.
Thus Englishmen find them
selves at cross purposes in dealing
with Americans. On the one hand,
they would like to win America to
their side as an active ally in case
of war. But in any event, they
want our economic support-and
to gain that, strangely enough,
they must convince Americans that
such support would not lead us
into war.
They ignore the fact that it was
the sinking of British ship, the
Lusitania, carrying war supplies
from America, which did more than
anything else to arouse the Amer
ican-in-the-street's wrath against
Germany before the United States
entry into the World war.
