Sciences. The generally accepted theory is that | the interior of the planet is constituted to satisfy the known weight of the earth the material which composes the core must be more than twice as heavy as that of the crust. It is argued that during the formative stages of the planet the heavier atoms fell toward the center and stayed there. But, Dr. Bliss says, this explanation require a much greater proportion of iron in the mass of the earth than exists in the stars, as shown by spectroscopic an- alysis. Moreover, the material from which the earth was formed is supposed to have been torn from the outer sur- face of the sun, where iron is found in no greater porportions than in the earth's crust. The temperature near the surface of the earth, he points out, rises one de- gree centigrade for each 100 feet in- crease in depth. If this continues in- definitely it would give the interior a heat of approximately 100,000 degrees. At such a great heat atoms could not hold their outer shells of electrons, he explains. Under such conditions, he says, the same materials which compose the earth’s crust would be changed into a state in which their density would be more than five times as great as it is at the surface. —T.
