Abstract

Forum, V71, N6, pp. 705-716 (June 1924). A Professor of Celestial Mechanics maintains thay Einstein's theory of relativity has not been proved, unless we accept on faith the special pleadings and assumptions of his followers. He calls attention to the wide divergence between stellar positions predicted by Einstein and the actual positions observed at the time of eclipses, and he argues that Newton's conclusions can be equally well vindicated if Newtonians permit themselves similar liberties in explaining away embarrassing facts.
