...must insist on an immediate retraction of this statement in a space equally prominent to that in which the libellous statement appeared. Very truly yours, Lester Cramer...
Sirs: Because his name is one to conjure with; Because his methodical irresistible onslaught has made him dictator of Spain; Because his acts may strike the spark for the next world-wide conflagration; Because his meteoric ride has occurred entirely within the space of this year, 1936; I nominate for the Man of the Year, General Francisco Franco...
...soap bubble. But the speeds indicated by the amount of redshift, some of which now equal 25,000 miles per second, have made many astronomers doubt. Other causes for the redshift were suggested, such as cosmic dust or a change in the nature of light over great stretches of space. Two years ago Dr. Hubble admitted that the expanding universe might be an illusion, but implied that this was a cautious and colorless view. Last week it was apparent that he had shifted his position even further away from a literal interpretation of the redshift, that he now regards...
...National Academy of Sciences Dr. Hubble communicated the results of his most recent survey of the distant nebulae. The distribution of these bodies in space forced him to conclude that a non-expanding universe theory "is more economical and less vulnerable." If the red-shifts do not really indicate velocity, he wrote, one has a "rather simple and thoroughly consistent picture of a universe in which . . . the large-scale distribution of nebulae is uniform throughout the sample available for inspection." On the other hand, to assume that the shifts really indicate receding velocity forces one to adopt a very curious...
