==Abstract==

Galilei-covariant electrodynamics is generalized for moving dielectric media with motion induced polarization for dielectric permittivities e(w)&gt;e. = 10-9/36 pi As/Vm.&nbsp; The interferometer experiments on light propagation in (i) flowing water by Fizeau and (ii) resting water by Hoek, relative to a terristrial laboratory frame S (which moves with a volocity v = -w ~ 3X10+5 m/s relative to the absolute cosmic frame S with isotropic light propagation) are explained quantitatively without resort to relativistic space-time concepts.&nbsp; The experiment of Hoek is shown to reveal a polarization effect in the induced electric ether field wXB, due to the terrestrial vacuum substratum velocity w.&nbsp; Thus, the Hoek experiment refutes the special theory of relativity.
