According te Detective CHAMBERLIN ADVANCES NEW GEOLOGIC THEORY Earth Slowly Built Up by Gather ing In Minute Bodies .ChlMim. Nev. 14 'Hv A. IM N'ew doctrines of geelin). based en n new theen nf the erlsln of the earth, were nutl ncii te the National Acad emy of Sciences here today by Prof. Themas C. Chamberlin. emeritus head of tin- Department of Geology of the University of Chicago. FmphaslziiiK the revolutienal motions of the enrlh as a planet, which have liircch cone unnoticed in geology. Prof. Chamberlin declared that they were "some thousands of times greater than tin' liuire tangible vibratory energies," such n light, heat and hound. Discarding tl e old view- of the nebular hvpethesN that the Interior of thu earth is melt ph. Prof. Chamberlin told the iicnlemj it is solid. Up pointed out thnt formerly it was supM.viI tlmt the earth was once In a gn-eiius -tnie .ml that it oinnlcnfed from this into n molten glebe. Its siirfnet i ontigiiratien and if deforma tions were .ivdgncd te cooling. Tlic studies of the earth'B energy and mo mentum, however, revealed nerieiiH dlf ficultlea in making such a history fit the facta disclosed by later investiga tion. Dr. Chainbcrlin abandoned the old view some twenty jears nge and offered u new view known as the plnncteMnml hyiKithcsls. Under this view the eartli was built up ve(ry slowly by gathering in minute bodies wIiehp energies anil mementa were of the same sort an that of the plnnetn into which they are gathered nud hence they met the old difficulties. The new view makes it necessary te recast many of the old doctrines of geology te bring them into accord with the new basis. Senater's Sightless Eye Removed Washington, Nev. 14. (Uy A. P.)
