brilliant Clearance Darrow,
who fought passionately in
defense of mans right to
think. John T. Scopes, the
high school science teacher,
who was tried for teaching
evolution" left Dayton soon
after the trial. He's a geol-
ogiSt today.
But many of the townsfolk
were here in 1925 and are
still here, and they often
talk-perhaps a bit wistfully
of the great commotion
that put Dayton on the front
pages Of the land.
Unhurried Pace
This town of $500 popula-
ton is now quiet and serene,
suggesting the undisturbed
placidity of Booth Tarking-
tons Indiana of the long ago.
There are sturdy houses and
beautiful trees-elmS and
pine oaks and poplar, horse
cheStnutS and Towering dog
wood. The pace is unhurrieo.
Women sit on their front
porches and go to church in
starched ginghams and yel-
low organdieS. Men NOW
their lawns and adjust tele-
vision sets. Strangers smile
at one another along the
streets and many say Good
morning"
But in 1925 the world
watched. Science Teacher
Scopes, q conscientious and
fervent young man, was put
on trial for teaching the Dar-
winian theory Of evolution
in his claSSroomS.
Bryan, Scared by three de-
featS in presidential cam
paigns, but still a powerful
orator, was the prosecutor.
Darrow shuffled into town
from Chicago to take up the
defense because of his intense
interest in the issues in
volved.

wit and cyniciSm from Balti-

were written about the trial

Bryan was subjected to a

INTERPRETIVE REPORT

Secretary Mcnamara is chan
neling the increases into effec-
tive fighting units. He also has
launched a managerial shake
up which he believes will add
further strength by pulling the
three services and the Defense
Department superstructure into
a co-ordinated whole.
The military men emphasize
that the actions taken so far
represent modification but not
basic change in the defense
policy that has endured for
more than a decade. That pol
icy, in brief, is this:
To deter large and small wars
by making the price of aggres-
sion too high and to resist ac-
tual aggression first with non
nuclear weapons and then. at
last resort, with atom bombs.
Mr.. Mcnamara described his
objectives to Congress on July
% this way:
What we are seeking tc
achieve, and achieve quickly. is
a peak readiness of our mill
tary establishment to respond
promptly and with appropriate
force, and in adequate strength
to any kind of armed Commu-
mist aggression anywhere in the
world :"

officials assess the changes
that are underway.
