who is chiefly responsible for the
propaganda that resulted in the laws

his experience and experiments recent

power unknown to himself but pos

seeks, held in a swing by its action
while held by him. When along the
line of the Vein it has swinging
motion in a circle, and when off the
vein draws towards it.
