Growing Pains By Phillips Esquire 20:00 "I'm really amazed--I don't think even Sonja Henie could do that" CHURCHMEN OKAY EVOLUTION--AND FIGHT IS ON! British Divines Are Pretty Much Irked; Report Is Called Addled Ostrich Egg By the Associated Press LONDON, Jan. commission's Controversy swirled on today over religious an Anglican doctrine, 292-page report which sets forth that one may reconcile the Biblical account of the world's creation with evolutionary theories, and 1 that the Bible need not be taken as the judge of historical or scientific investigation in any field. Twenty prominent leaders of the Church of England took 15 years to complete the report dealing with fundamental questions of the virgin birth, angels, demons, evolution and the resurrection.

Speedy reaction came first from the church association, through its secretary, the Rev. E. C. Bowring who said today: "The commission has incubated a report which is merely an addled ostrich egg, for they disclaim the idea of defining what doctrine is permissible in the Church of England. According to Hit By Car; Cut Lip Is His Sole Injury BILLY JARVIS Six-year-old Billy Jarvis of 154 1-2 Stanton today was telling chums about his lucky escape from serious injury yesterday when an auto knocked him down in front of his home.

The car passed over him without the wheels injuring him, Billy's sole evidence being a cut lip. DAVEY-SAWYER (Continued From Page One) measure, and stand up to it like a man, which you have not done in the past. "My fight would be in the open and in the daylight. It would not be cast on the level of bitterness but on the stern realities of politics. If I should be a candidate, and to the extent that God gives me the strength to fight against unscrupulous enemies, that contest would not be childplay." Cites 'Punishment' Sawyer, in his speech before the "harmony" dinner last Saturday night declared, "No party can stand forever the punishment which the Democratic party is now getting in Ohio; not from without but from within-from democrats." "Charges of corruption and graft are rampant," Sawyer asserted.

"Men in high position in the party have become mysteriously rich; either this situation must end or we will be in danger in November." Sawyer mentioned no names. "You did not have the courage to name anyone nor to state any specific charges," Davey said today, "but you sought by the infamous means of an indefinite, general statement to indict a whole state government. "I now demand of you in the name of public decency to name those who are guilty, and specify their offenses. "If you do not cooperate in the manner suggested," Davey added, "then I must brand you as a cowardly self-seeker, who tries by the use of poison words to climb into a position of power and trust, but who in the pursuit of this vaulting ambition can achieve nothing, but a Member trial of Of Gang' bitterness." The governor described Sawyer as "an active, but secretive member of the conspiracy gang" which, Davey told the house of representatives Jan. 3, was conducting a "smear Davey" campaign.

Davey traced Sawyer's opposition to the 1934 democratic primary, when he defeated Sawyer and William G. Pickrel of Dayton. "You sulked like a spoiled boy who couldn't take it," added Davey, charging that the national committeeman "sought by secretive and underhanded means to bring about republican success in 1934 and again in 1936." Davey also wrote to Sawyer, "I fear that the blood which runs in your veins is as cold as ice water, and that the virtue which you pretend is cloak for sordid, scheming selfishness." the archbishop's commission, you can think what you like and still be Christian." The Church association was founded by Evangelical churchmen who favor simplified forms of worship and oppose ritual of the high church section. But "some of us" envisage a reunion of Christendom under leadership such as "a papacy which renounced a some of its present claims." Other members of the commission hoped reunion "by a more federal type of constitution which would have no need" for such leadership. Miracles, -the commission was divided on whether they occur, but that God "could do" them if He "would." Some held He would not wish to perform them.

Angels and is legitimate to suspend judgment" or treat them "symbolically." Resurrection--Jesus' rising from the dead "however explained" is to be understood to have been an event as real and Graft Probe Guns Aimed At Humphrey ALFRED HUMPHREY Senate graft committee guns were trained today on Alfred Humphrey, chief of the enforcement division of the state department of liquor control. The committee has threatened to force his dismissal, and "level his department to the ground and reduce it to ruins." WOMAN ATTACKED (Continued From Page One) he started to walk out of the front door with the club. "I'll kill your husband," he said. "Then I ran to the back door and locked it, and locked the front door after him. Broke Into Home Again "When he didn't see my husband coming he came back and I heard a crash of glass as he broke the front door window.

"Then he was inside again, and I ran to the back door, unlocked it and went out wearing only my chemise." After summoning police cruisers, Kutscher took his wife and baby to the home of his motherin law, Mrs. William Claver, 389 Sherman st. Still shaken by the events of the night, Mrs. Kutscher was near collapse today. Police are investigating the case and say that the man's footsteps in the snow correspond with footsteps they found at another number on S.

Forge st. on complaint of a prowler earlier in the evening. Husband On Relief Ironically, things had just begun to brighten a bit for the Kutscher family, since the father was to receive first pay check Miss from WPA today, after weeks of enforced idleness. The baby is undernourished from weeks of going without proper food and the young husband and wife have been hopelessly trying to keep up their little home and get food and clothing for themselves and their child. "The reason I was sleeping in my chemise was because my one nightgown was soiled from cine I had put on Kutscher my chest frond.

The shall have means of recognizing each other in future life." Here are some of the findings by the commission: The authority must not be taken as prejudging conclusions of historical, critical or scientific investigation in any field." Virgin birth -Historical evidence is "inconclusive," but this was one of the many things the members split on, with the Archbishop of York, who headed the commission, reporting that he accepted as historical fact the Lord's birth from a virgin mother and His physical resurrection from the Evolution- The Christian doctrine "leaves abuntombeation dant room for a variety of theories as to the evolution of the world," and the universe "depends upon the creative will of God." GRAFT INQUIRY (Continued From Page One) one point interposed: "Let's work together on this. I'm not against your committee." To which Metzenbaum replied: "We're intending to work together because we hope and propose to remove you. If the legislature gives us the funds and the legislature is not sent home by a proroguing order, we hope to accomplish that for the benefit of Ohio." Humphrey said he had not suspended Maiden yet because he had been unable to secure a transcript of testimony which first involved Maiden. Under constant pressure from the committee, Humphrey said he would take immediate preliminary action against Maiden and then decide whether or not to remove him from the department.

Consider Ferguson Data A leather-bound portfolio of data obtained by liquor department investigators of State Auditor Joseph Ferguson promised today to play a big part in the inquiry into the department. The book was reported to contain more than 200 cases of irregularities in the liquor department. Ferguson has been away from Columbus since the senate committee obtained the data 10 days ago. Tuesday morning, suddenly, Norman Beck, deputy auditor, asked that the book be returned and informed the committee that two auditor department investigators who had been assigned to work with the committee would have to be assigned to other work. Metzenbaum retaliated by presenting Beck with a subpena for the book at the very moment he returned it to the auditor's office.

Allison Avoids Contempt The senate committee won an important victory Thursday when Finance Director M. Ray Allison, who had refused to produce vouchers demanded by the committee, changed his mind and turned the vouchers over to Dwight Matchette, clerk of the senate. The committee then rescinded its motion citing Allison for contempt. In questioning Humphrey, Metzenbaum brought out that chairman of the Ashtabula county democratic committee is Robert Goggin, brother of William J. Goggin, who was charged in testimony before the committee last week with shaking down a contractor doing business with the state.

William Goggin was present at last night's questioning of the liquor department official. Humphrey Challenged Met Metzenbaum and Humphrey exchanged hot words in the argument Humphrey had made anyhettort to get a transcript of Maiden's testimony before the committee. "Are you afraid to dismiss Joe Maiden?" Senator Metcalf, committee member, asked. "Has he got something on you? Are you afraid if you fire him he'll come in here and squawk?" Humphrey said he wag not afraid to dismiss the Canton inspector. In response to another question from Metcalf, Humphrey denied he had had anything to do with trying to prevent the auditor's office from cooperating with the committee.

Planned Fair Trial' When Metzenbaum demanded to know why he had not suspended Maiden earlier, Humphrey replied he wanted to read the testimony and give the inspector a "fair trial." His promise to suspend Maiden came after the committee's counsel showed him photostatic copies of the hotel bills and Humphrey said they appeared to have been tampered with. The enforcement chief, asked why liquor inspectors were transferred back to their home areas before the November, 1936, election, replied there was nothing unusual about that for inspectors were continually being transferred. The committee recessed until next week. Motion pictures will provide entertainment for Summit Post 19, American Legion, at the new club house, 783 W. Market at 8 p.

m. Monday, Commander Nat Neff announced. SECRET U. S. FUND (Continued From Page One) international penal and penitentiary commission.

Hull also has been given authority to spend as he chooses large sums for government delegates to the telecommunication conference at Cairo, Egypt; the eighth international conference of American states at Lima, Peru; the general claims convention for the United States and Mexico; the international Pacific salmon fisheries commission; the inter-American radio conference at Havana; the conference of extra-territorial rights in Egypt, to be held at joint committee of American and Philippine experts. Amuse Coast Guard Secretary of the Treasury Morgenthau has been given among other sums, $40,000 for contingent "expenses" including "subsistence of shipwrecked and destitute persons succored by the coast guard." Portions of this money also can be used for amusing the coast guard personnel. J. Edgar Hoover has been granted $20,000 to "meet unforeseen emergencies of a confidential character." When portions of this money are spent, Attorney General Cummings simply makes out a slip carrying the amount. He does not have to say what the money was used for.

Secretary of Agriculture Wallace was given $105,750 to be spent sary "for the practical and efficient work of the department." The secret service was given $10,000 "for services looking toward the apprehension of criminals" while the commandant of the naval academy was allowed $1,200 for contingencies. The treasury already has complete authority to operate the 000,000,000 stabilization fund without reporting to anyone except the president.
