T:dE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C.; TUESDPAY, JUNE 17,. 1930. TAXICAB INSURANCE MEASURE: PASSED Senate Approves Three Other : Local Bills Without Discussion. ‘The Senate today passed without de- bate the bill to require taxicab operators to take out insurance or give bond to the Public Utilities Commission to sat- isfy judgments resulting from accidents, and at the same time passed three other bills of local interest. The other | measures approved without discussion ‘were: The Robsion bill, extending the pad- | lock law to apply to gambling estab- | lishments; the bill authorizing the Bu- reau of Standards to acquire additional land adjoining its present bulldings and the bill authorizing the people of Penn- sylvania to erect an ornamental foun- tain in Washington as a gift to the United States. Phone Option Debate Delayed. ‘The bill to authorize an addition to the Washington Post Office was post- poned. and the resolution of Senator Tydings to give Senators the option of deciding whether dial telephones are 0 be removed or retained in their re- spective offices in the Senate Office [Building also was postponed for later consideration. taxicab bill, as originally intro- duced by Senator Capper, would have given the Utilities Commission general authority over rates and other phases of regulation, but the committee decided to confine the measure at this time to & requirement that taxicab operators furnish proof of their financial respon- sibilities. The taxicab bill still requires action by the House, and the gambling pad- Jock measure also requires House ac- tion. Amendment Approval Needed. ‘The proposed enlargement of the Bureau of Standards, at an estimated cost of $400,000, has passed the House, but must go back there for approval of a Senate amendment prohibiting the elosing of Van Ness street, Tilden street, or Reno road. ‘The authorization for Pennsylvania gift fountain has passed both Houses.

EINSTEIN EVOLVES NEW SPACE THESIS Will Remain as Only Theory | of Reality, Scientist Tells Power Parley. By the Associated Press. BERLIN, June 17.—Several thousand power celebrities, including some 200 Americans, yesterday heard Dr. Albert Einstein, famed theoretical physicist and author of the theory of relativity, unfold his newer thesis of the reality of space. The great German scientist uttered his new theory for the first time pub- licly in his own land. He said its es- sence was that space, birthplace of all matter and thought, having been brought into reality by Sir Isaac New- ton, has in the last few decades “swal- lowed up the ether and time and is about to swallow up the fleld and corpuscular theory, too, so that space will remain as the only theory repre- senting reality.” All ideas of light, time, the ether and related phenomena, the scientist de- clared, will be absorbed in the all-in- clusive concert of space. He said the theory had “eliminated from the ether the last vestige of ma- terfality.” Idea Evolved While L SHVED FOR FUTURE New Academy of Italy Pre- vents Commercial Changes Deemed Harmful. | | By the Associated Press. | stroke the Academy of Italy has saved Venice from mutilation in the interests of commerce. Created a few months ago, the Acad- emy of Italy was granted by King and government authority over any struc- | tural project touching beautiful build- | ings, streets, squares or sites anywhere | in Italy. | . Its disapproval of the Venice project | has the force of the government behind | it and means instant failure of the pro- | posed development. | "'The case, its first, was that the | municipality of Venice wished to dig a canal piccolo (little canal) for a short | cut between the ends of a bosomy bend in the Grand Canal. The municipality had approved it. The money was ready. “We need it,” they said. “The Grand Canal is con- gested. It takes a half hour by steam- boat to get from the station to St. Mark’s Square.” The Academy of Italy assembled. At the meeting were the artist Sartorio, the academicians Ettore Tito and Canonica, the composers Mascagni, author of “Cavalleria Rusticana,” and Giordano, author of “Andre Chenier,” and “Mme. Sans Gene.” “But,” they sald, “you are going to change Venice. You are going to transform this gem of the Adriatic. transportation. But at what a sacrifice!” There is no appeal from the decision of the academy. Throughout Italy the academy’s action has met with’ tre- mendous acclaim. \BOLLING FIELD FUND CUT BY COMMITTEE for Construction at Military Pos to Approximately $10,000,000. While $291,000 was slashed from the building program for Bolling Field by the House military affairs committee yesterday when it reduced the Ransley ; bill for construction at military posts from some $15,000,000 to approximately $10,000,000, yet important items totaling more than $250,600 were retained for the local Army airport. An item of $104,000 for a laundry at Walter Reed Hospital was also elimi- nated from the authorization list, as were $110,340 for construction of of- ficers’ quarters at Fort Myer, Va., and $108,000 for construction of non-com- m]ulgned officers quarters at Fort Mon- roe, Va. For Bolling Field the $162,900 orig- inally specified for non-commissioned officers’ quarters was cut in half. The amount for officers’ quarters was re- duced from $285,000 to $150,000. Items of $20,000 for a garage, $20.000 for a guard house, $15,000 for a post exchange and $40,000 for a theater and gym- nasium were slashed from the bill. All other items for Bolling Field were re- tained in the bill. Journalism Tenth Muse.

His new theory holds that space, having origi- Upper: Maj. Fenesa R.

Greeks Dealt With Solids. “In pre-scientific days thinking of a finite world of solid bodies formed the base of the first attempts to reduce | the sense of men's experience to & logi- | cal system. | The Greeks thought in terms of the | relative positions of solid bodies and built their mathematics upon a few elements such as the point, the plane, | the line and distance. “They dealt with solid objects and | their relative positions. To Descartes | is given the credit for first introducing | the idea of continuous space. This, | added to Newton's mechanics, made a | fairly complete conception of Descar- tian space. “At that moment space became physical reality. Next came studies of light and the introduction of the con- cert of the ether.

Erlanger, theatrical manager, on the ground that she was his common-law wife, was granted au- thority by Surrogate Foley today to take depositions from hotel employes, in 10 European countries and in the United mass, Dr. Einstein had been working the laws of electricity and those of gravitation. “The conception of simultaneous events,” he said, “did not conform with reall ascribed to speed, to acceleration or to the idea of an inertial system by which nature opposes change of motion or de- flects or reverses motion.” “A complete relativity theory,” Dr. Einstein said, “must embrace ail gaus. sian (magnetic measurement) an ordinate systems in a four-dimensional ts;me thus loses its absolute er.
