By means of gravity observations on
land and on sea the difference in mass or
weight of these blocks is measured. The
blocks under the continents and under
the routes travelled by DR.. Meinesz ex
cept over the great ocean deeps and the
continental shelves have been weighed
and found to be very closely of the same
weight. This means, in effect. that where
the land stands high the density of the
rocks beneath is lighter than the average

larly for those agencies that have,
through Him, brought succor to

fer Thanks to the Great Giver of
All Good for the blessings they have
received, and petition for a continu-
ance of His Divine Grace.

ried on by all of the navies of the world
with the result that in the mex decade

will have ample gravity data for studying
the vast ocean areas and learning the
secrets of the crust beneath them. With
such Information the students of the
earth will be able to interpret the geOlO-

accuracy than has been possible 10 the
