EINSTEIN TELLS ADVANCE
IN NEW MENTAL FIELDS
Hopes to Establish Uniformity in
Realms of Electricity and
Gravity, He Declares.

BY the Associated Press.
BERLIN, April 17.--At a meeting
of the Prussian Academy of Sciences
last night, DR.. Albert Einstein eluci-
dated his latest work on the uniform
field theory, aiming at establishing uni
formity in the fields of electricity ana
gravity, that is to say, in the surround
ings of electrical or heavy bodies in
which the effects of these bodies be-
come noticeable.
To make it possible to embrace these
phenomena in the same iewpoint, with
the aid of the same mathematical
equations, is the object of Einstein' S
uniform field theory.
This aim is nothing less than a
sweeping simplif1cation of methods for
calculating the physical cosmos.
DR. Einstein described the points of
view he had started from in order to
arrive at his field equations. In these,
besides the assumption Of coherent

1900 Miles Per Second Velocity
Of Recently-Found Groups of Stars

Two scientists of the Mount Wilson
Observatory have observed and studied
what appears to be the speediest OF
group of stars in the whole visible uni
verse, moving at velocities in excess of
1000 miles second. Telling of their
studies before the American Association
for the Advancement OF Science, DR.. e.
p. Hubble and Milton L. Humason an
nounced that they had observed faint
group of nebulae in the bowl Of the
Great Dipper, near the star under the
place where the bowl joins the
handle"
Each nebula is believed to be swarm
of stars. such as those that form the
Milky Way, of which the sun is a
member.
BY making a 50-hour time exposure
of the spectrum of the brightest nebula
in the group on nine consecutive nights
with the great 100-inch telescope, MIR.
Humason obtained photograph that
proved to be similar to the photo
graphed spectrum Of the sun. But the
dark lines crossing it, each one repre-
Senting an element, were not found in
the proper position. They were crowded
toward the red" end of the spectrum.
This Is understood by scientists to in
dicate . motion of the light source
away from the earth.
BY measuring this. shift" on the pho.
tographic plates the astronomers. are
able to calculate the speed with which
the heavenly bodies are travelling TO or
from the earth through space.
This is an optical phenomena, similar
to the phenomena Of sound that occurs

the train Is travelling past the observer
at high speeds. While the train is APP

4. A special status for the Northwest

autonomous features not now existing.
5. Continuance, with practically nc
change, of the present status of the

Inflammation of both being contem-
plated, but only as the distant con-
summation of slow process.
6. The dyarchy system to be COM
pletely abolished.
Z. Careful consideration of the provin-
cial boundaries with view to possible
changes, the present provinces not be-
ing ideal areas for self-government. ~
8. The provinces to enjoy good deal
more autonomy than they enjoy at
present, each provincial legislature to
be elected on a far wider franchise

tion). than that applying to the present
provincial legislatures, and its members
to choose the provinces representatives
in the federal assembly On the other
hand, though leach province should be
as far as possible mistress in her own
house." the autonomy should be def
nitely restricted in respect of certain
matters and subject to suspension in
emergency. With respect to such mat
tiers. the rights of minorites, for ex-
ample, and for such emergencies the
powers of governors, in subordination
to the governor general, should be in
creased, whereas respecting most mat
tiers and normal situations their powers
should be restricted

be perpetuated faithfully to pledges. to

equitable representation should be pro-
vided for the depressed classes" and
certain special classes and interests
as Europeans, Anglo ndians, Indian
Christians, etc. The separate celebrates
for the Sikhs should be preserved. Eff
fort should cautiously be taken looking
to improvement of the political status
of women, and the problem of gradual
discreet broadening of the franchise
should be a grand preoccupation.
10. As to the central government, the
federal assembly, to replace the present
legislative assembly, should be con-
siderably larger body. one member APP

lation, and should have large powers,

of states should be retained with little

what Is now CharleStown. But there
were no springs In CharleStown. Across
the river stood the hills Of Shawmut,
which they accordingly called Trimoun-
tame, or Trimount Chence the present
fremont street,, and between these hills
were several fine springs. So, with his
consent Zone sometimes speculates
whether he didn't suspect that they'd
come anyway, many of the Puritans
moved over onto william Blaxton's
peninsula, named 1t Boston, after Bos-
ton. England, and established It as the
capital Of the Bay Colony.
Blaxton was admitted as a freeman
of the colony in 1891 Cthat was nice OF
them, and by 1882 We find that SO
acres near his house were set aside for
his perpetual use. However. a year later
in general release Of the whole penin-
sula, he gave up all but 6 acres. He
sold the other a. acres for ESQ for a
training f1eld-and those acres are ROW
Boston Common, that extraordinary
open space in the very heart of the city
which gives Boston 50 much Of its
unique and gracious charm.
In 1885 poor brother Blaxton aban-
dorled even his 6 remaining acres and
fed for solitude into the wilderness of
Rhode Island. The abandoned holding,
more than q century later, became the
estate Of Copley. the painter. Blaxton
died in 1878, at the age Of 80. Shortly
