Sen. PenrOse of Pennsylvania.
ranking republican member Of the
finance committee, declared in the

nate industry and individual enter
prise. he declared, and thereby
would lessen rather than increase
the governments revenues.

Origin Of Moon in Doubt.

Many theories of the origin Of the
moon have been advanced, but all
seem sto present some difficulties.
>Our satellite furnishes US many I'M
solved problems. A belief In the
meteoric origin of the moon Is now
qu..e general. According to this be-
lief the earth was surrounded In the
early stages Of its existence by a ring
OF meteoric matter. The material
forming the ring gradually gatheret
Into enc mass, our present moon.
whose pitted face gives evidence of the
bombardment 1t received FROM me-
teoric masses within the ring. Accord
ing to this theory our satellite has al.
ways been dead world. q cold and
lifeless mass Of meteoric rock. 1t has
never felt the pulse Of life or under.
gone the mighty changes that have
passed over its ruling planet. 1t has
remained a cold and silent witness
to vast evolutionary processes going
on upon neighboring world such as
1t could never experience for II
self.
