LECTURE ON EINSTEIN
SCIENTIST’S VIEWS ON WORLD PROBLEMS. In a lecture on Einstein to be given at the Pasa Dena Tea Rooms, Hastings on Thursday evening, Mr J. A. Brailsford, staff tutor to the W.E.A., will deal more with the great scientist’s life and outlook on the problems of to-day than with the theory of relativity. The man who has changed the scientific view of the universe as fundamentally as did Galileo and Copernicus by no means confines his interests to mathematical symbols of space-time. He is among other things an ardent pacifist, and it is not surprising that he refuses to return to Germany while the country is under the tyranny of Hitlerism. He has expressed definite convictions regarding tho causes of the present world depression and its cure. He denounces the school system of the Western world. His views on religion are arresting. Love of music, a sense of humour and a gentle hunianitv make Einstein an attractive figure. Tho lecture will be open to all.
