Millikan, of the California [nstitute of Technology, one of the great world figures in the field of sel- nce, Some scientists have advanced the theory that as heat is lost, in ages lo eome, the various radiant bodies mn, the universe must "die" and be- come cold masses of matter, Dr, Millikan argued, on the con~ trary that there is reason to believe energy may be built up, and replaced continually, Continual Process In his statement--a speech before a gathering of scientific societies==Dr, Millikan outlined ten discoveries dur~ ing the last 100 years which led him to suggest the hypothesis that there is a continual process of upbuilding, rather than a slow death, 1~The equivalence of heat and work, resulting in the principle of conservation of energy, 2.~The second law of thermo-dy- namics, interpreted by some fo corro- borate the heat-loss theory of even- | tual death, | 3~The discovery of the facts of | evolution, indicating a creative force constantly at work on earth, if no- where else, : 4==The discovery of radioactivity, whieh Dr, Millikan said, showed that other sources must be found to ac- count for the heat radiation from the sun and stars rather than that they were merely hot bodies cooling off, §,~The interconvertibility of mass and eneigy, that is that ar electron increases its mass as its velocity or speed of motion increases, Lasting Source 6,~The discovery that radiation ex- erts pressure, which, coupled with the fifth discovery and with Einstein's corroboration of the mass-energy re- lation, might indicate, Dr, Millikan held, that if the mass of the sun were | convertible into radiant heat, it fur- nished a "very lasting" source of energy. { 7~~The positive-ray analysis meth. od of ascertaining that all elements were exact multiples of the weight of hydrogen, and "in fact were at least once definitely built up from hydrogen, which insistently raises the question whether the same process is not even now going on somewhere, 8~The theory of "electronic sui- cide," resulting "in the release of energy in the form of an ether pulse which would help maintain the pace of the interiors of the suns" 9.-Aston's measurements, from which Dr. Millikan said he obtained corroboration of the Einstein theory and "definite proof that with the ex. ception of a few of the healer ele ments, all elements' atoms are in their state of great est stability" and which led also to the prediction that there cxisted a ray, emitted from | some source, which contained greater energy than those already known, 10~The discovery and identifica: tion of cosmic radiatious, MR.
