Watkins, sp bition enforcement, state, gave many the success of prohibition. Taking the recent report of the Federated Council of Churches, composed of thirty denominations, he found much favorable material showing a de- crease in the amount of liquor con- sumed. “Although . U. convention in at the Metho- ing on_ prohi federal and nies interpreted the report in its most unfavorable light.” Rev. Watkins said, “support- ers of the prohibition amendment have found many hopeful facts,” “School is the only proper work for young people.” said Mrs. Wilder in her address favoring the udoption of a national child labor amendment. Mrs, Wilder traced the history of child labor legislation and decried the propaganda that has postponed | adoption. Three million children of compulsory school age are not in school, Mrs. Wilder said. Urge Cigaret Law Renewed effort in behalf of the re-adoption of the anti-cigaret law was urged by Mrs. Necia E.

An organ solo by Miss Ruth Rowley, vocal duet by Rev .and Mrs. Paul S. Wright and a mixed quartet number were heard. Field work reports were given by Mrs. Julia D. Nelson, Mrs. Kate S. Wilder and Mrs, Necia E. Buck at Friday afternoon's session. Final of- ficial figures given by Mrs, Buck showed an increase in membership. The state superintendent's hour was devoted to minute talks on “Building the Future.” Reports of local presidents concerned the young people's work. The national W. C.

MONKEY WAR STIRS EUROPE: German Professor Declares Evolution Antiquated Berlin, Sept. 26.—()—The Acer- bites aroused by the celebrated Day- ton, Tenn., “evolution trial” appear to have been transferred to Germany, where a sharp debate on the Dar- winian theory has been raging among scientists. The trouble started when Prof. Albert G. P. Fleischmann, pro- fessor of Embryology at the Univer- sity of Erlangen, Bavaria, and a noted writer on Darwinism, claimed recently in the Munich Neueste Nach- richte, that the Darwinian theory of he origin of species has been contra- dicted by later researches of science, and that but few scientists still ac- cept it. This led twelve professors of palaeontology and zoology in the university of Munich to issue a pub- lic statement, declaring that now, as formerly, they regard the formula- tion of the doctrine of the origin of species as among the highest achievements of their respective sci- ences. They expressed the opinion that this viewpoint is shared by most all representatives of their branches of learning. _ The controversy promises to con- tinue lustily, drawing an increasing ‘number of debaters into its scope.

COURT RECORDS OPEN TO PUBLIC Judges and other court officers cannot legally withhold from repr. sentatives of newspapers public d ments filed in their courts, a decision handed down by the attorney gen- eral’s office here averred.

The opinion, which was written by John Thorpe, assistant eral, follows: “By sect piled laws, 1913, it is provi ative to the records of the county judge that ‘the records must be open during office hours to access and in- spection by any persons having busi- ness therewith.’ It is our opinion that he press, being engaged in: the business of disseminating news and giving publicity to matters of public interest, has such business in con- nection with the records of the :oun- ty judge as“would entitle its repre- sentatives to access thereto and in- spection thereof.

Three men saved.” No details of the collision were forthcoming at an hour this morning from the City of Rome or any other source. Block Island lies in the Atlantic ocean off Washington County, Rhode Island, and just east of the eastern- most point of Long Island, New York Immediately after news of the di aster became known, a wireless m sage was broadcast ordering all ves- sels in the vicinity to hurry toward the scene to render what aid they might. Preparations were made in New London, Conn., to despatch na- val craft, Thirty-seven men personnel of S-51. The officers in addition to Lieutenant Rodney H. Dobson included Lieut. Graeme Ban- nerman and Lieut. Harlow M. Pino. The S-51 was attached to the patrol force of the Atlantic and was out on tice cruise. Her station was New London. LINER RETURNS , Whether the City of Rome sus- tained any damage in the impact with the submersible has not been ascertained. It is understood, how- ever, that she was veered from her usual outside course to Boston and is making her way through the Cape Cod Canal and that she will reach her destination some time today. The steamer is owned by the Ocean Steamship company, and plies regu- larly in the freight and passenger service between Savannah and Bos- ton. The S-b1 left New London Sept. 20. The theory prevailed early this morning that she possibly was sub- merged when struck by the City of Rome. A _ message received from that vessel about 5 o'clock this morning, said that after the impact and the saving of the three men, nothing else could be found. The S-51 was of 1,500 tons, sub- merged, and of 2,000 tons burden running on the surface. She had a four-inch gun forward and five tor- pedo tubes using 21-inch projectiles.

Three survivors were picked up by the steamer and it was a matter of conjecture as to whether the remaind- | er were drowned or were alive in the underwater vessel, While a fleet of rescue craft from Newport, R. L, New York City and New London, Conn., the submarine’s base, was rushed out to the point 20 miles east of Block Island where the disaster occurred, those on shore eagerly awaited news of the crash. The City of Rome was proceeding to | Boston und Captain Diehl, her com-} mander, gave no details in his first, terse message to officers of the com- pany. She was due to reach Boston sometime this afternoon and it was) said she might not arrive before 4! or 5 o'clock. MAY BE ALIVE Hope that the 34 men who went down with the S-51 might still be alive was increased when the des- troyer Putnam, sent to the scene from the Naval Training Station at} Newport, sent a wireless message saying they had discovered what ap- parently was a buoy, made up of a bunch of life preservers. Naval men at Newport expressed the hope that Sweden, Norway, Holland, Denmark, Austria, Hungary and Switzerland.
