FIVE NATIONS WILL COMPETE

London, Oct. 1.

INTERNATIONAL rivalry to be first in the air with a regular North Atlantic airmail and passenger servico has become even more, acute as Great Britain speeds up her own plans for a regular weekly or fortnightly air link between London and New York.

PROFESSOR CALLS IT "COMPLETE FRAUD"

Darwin's theory of natural selection-the adequacy of which was questioned by Pro- fessor F. Balfour-Browne was roundly denounced as complete fraud at the British Association meeting at Nor-

wich last month.

The declaration to this effect by Professor E, W. MacBride, FR.S., of the Imperial College of Science, South Kensington, caused some- thing of a sensation, and in-dis- cussing it afterwards a zoologist described it as "n spanner thrown in the works."
