WORLD WILL NOT END,
SIR OLIVER LODGE SAYS

LONDON, Dec. 30.-There would
be no final catastrophe with the
ending of the world such as sud,
den plunge into chaos and oblivion.
according to Sir oliver Lodge.
In preparing an answer to the
question Of Twin the world come
TO an end?" the famous British
scientist holds that even IL this
planet eventually disintegl ates it
will only be the precursor of the
formation of new worlds.
Sir Oliver contends that there Is
no need for present or countless
future generations to worry over
the end. AS the formation and de-
ve.opment OF the earth was gradual,
he says, 1--WE may assume that any
possible disintegration would be
correspondingly gradual"
