Raleigh (Greensboro News dis patch)—Thomas Dixon's statement to day that evolution has nothin# to do with religion recalls; to local observer:* of religious phenomena the radical differences between North Carolina playwright and novehst and his senio/ brother. Amzi Clarence Dixon, prince of the fundamentalists. Clarence Dixcn died a few d tys ago. The Baltimore Sun, in the city where the big North Carolinian preached, paid tribute to the senior Dixon as a great fighter and a faithful believer in what he professed. Only a few days before Clarence Dixon died, Frank Dixon suddenly passed. The two trag ic events brought the old .She!!;.'- boy back to North Carolina. “The attempt on Mr. Bryan's part to fix a standard for ignorance for our jaountry is, to say the TeasfTBn’. using,'* said Dr. Dixon. “If the situation were tuken seriously,” he added, “it would be a disgrace to the United States. "My personel view is that evolu tion has nothing what ever to do with religion, any more than astronomy or geology. If we stop teaching evo. Jution, then let’s stop teaching as T tronorr.y and geology. "Involution is nothing more nor less than a scientific hypothesis as to how God created man.in his own image. It makes no difference whether it took rin ten million years or whether he took come .mud arid atrowel and made , man and then set him up by a fence ] to dry in the sun.'’ Dr. Dixon was eri route to his old ; home in Shelby by motor. He joined Mis. Dixon in Raleigh. She had been in Florida. While here Dixon was asked about the story that he preached on an earthquake the night of the famous, Charleston catastrophe which had vis ible effects here. “No.” he answered, “riot exactly.” "That was in the early days cf my ministry. Mr. N. B. Broughton had| asked me to conduct a series of meft- | ing: at the Tabernacle Baptist church (),i that particular night I preached a very vivid sermon on “Dab". By the time I got home, the earthquake had occurred and my chimney had been partly shaken down.” "So you had a big crowd the next night"’ he was asked. In the old days Tom Dixon and his elder brother used to mix it with Robert (!; Ingersoll. The senior thought the colonel the head of A great hierarchy of helians. Tom Dixon thanked him for stabbing to death many a cruel lie told on the Christian religion. It is not strange therefore that the genius of the family, Tom Dixon, should have been led into the modernist camp while the elder broth er lei! the fundamentalists.
