Berlin, June 23 Gp-Evidence that the universe is committing suicide" was laid before the delegates to the world power conference today by Sir Arthur Stanley Eddington, the British astronomer.
 Far from seeking to alarm hls au- dience Of engineers. however. the astronomer gave them vision of the vast supplies Of power which could be drawn from this orgy Of self-destruction if the scientists could find a way to harness it.
 The extreme penetrative power Of the cosmic ray discovered by Kohl hoerster and by Robert Andrews Millikan, the American physicist, in dicated to Sir Arthur that the source Of the ray probably is the self-destructlon Of atoms which are diverting themselves to the last shreds Of their energy and passing out of existence.
 The rays are passing in all direc- tions through space, proceed from countless self-slaughtered atoms, and as he sees it the cosnlic ray is in effect the last moan of the sui eide"
 But inasmuch as atomic suicide r77r1sr he com ,-74t-e1 h,- III ay-a aiIa r,Ie atoms before the universe is annihi- lated, Sir Arthur gives the cosmos as we know it quite few years to live.
