Abstract
IN the issue of NATURE for July 18, p. 103, it is stated: “Our sole object in taking up the subject of the prohibition of the teaching of evolution in certain States of the United States, and in inviting opinions upon this action from a number of leading authorities, has been to afford support to our colleagues fighting for scientific truth and progress against dogma and stagnation. We trust that the additional messages subjoined will give them the strength and courage they need to secure for them the position of intellectual freedom established in Great Britain many years ago, and existing unchallenged to-day.”
