WORLD WITHOUT END
SIR OLIVER LODGE’S VIEW NO BEGINNING EITHER (Australian and -V.Z. Press Association) LONDON, Saturday. Iu the course of an address to the Faraday Society Sir Oliver Lodge, the famous scientist, suggested that the world had no beginning and will have no end. What had been learned about the atom showed that matter was going into radiation. The question was: Is that process reversible? Can radiation return to matter? High temperature would be needed, but he considered a reversion was possible. The universe might have a cyclical process without beginning or end. One had to speak vaguely, but it was a thing for which to watch. The earth had a recuperative power which made it. possible for it to endure for all time.
