WANTED: A NEW LAW OF DEVELOPMENT




Evolution is no longer a mere tentative hypothesis. One by one,
step by step, each division and subdivision of science has
contributed its evidence, until now the case is complete and the
verdict rendered. While there is still discussion as to the method
of evolution, none the less, as a process sufficient to explain all
biological phenomena, all differentiations of life into widely
diverse species, families, and even kingdoms, evolution is flatly
accepted. Likewise has been accepted its law of development: THAT,
IN THE STRUGGLE FOR EXISTENCE, THE STRONG AND FIT AND THE PROGENY OF
THE STRONG AND FIT HAVE A BETTER OPPORTUNITY FOR SURVIVAL THAN THE
WEAK AND LESS FIT AND THE PROGENY OF THE WEAK AND LESS FIT.
