FIXES
EARTH'S ACE

BERLIN, Oct. II 1.N.SO The
old argument concerning the age
of Mother Earth was revived by
scientists today following the as
sertion by Prof. Albert Einsteln
that the world probably is about
ten million years old.
This estimate, based upon the
famous German physicists theo-
ries of the expansion of the UNI
verse, is more than double the
age usually attributed to the
earth.
Mentioning in particular the
recent observations of Dr. Edwin
P. Hubble, of the Mt. Wilson
(Calif) observatory, DR.. Einstein
declared it was now established
that the cosmiC universe was not
static, but in continuous state
of expansion. He said:
The outer spiral nebulae are
moving away from us at a speed
of 1880 miles a second. That
is the rate at which our uni
verse is expanding. 1t has been
expanding, say, for ten billion
years"
Most of the recent estimates
of the earth's age have been from
three billion to four billion years,
usually based upon the age of GER
tain types of rock or the forma-
ton of the earth'S crust.
