Gravitation Principle Declared To Be False
Discoveries in the fields of physics and astrophysics which will shake the selentific world to its foundations are claimed by Fernand Rousel, French-born engineer who has been studying the movements and composition of the celestial bodies for the past seven years.
An engineer with the French Navy during the first Great War, Rousel went to Vancouver in 1921. His home is a 30-foot cabin cruiser Utopia.
His major discovery, Rousel clainis, is the
prin-
ciple of physical phenomen Cheetah On
Jaw governing the motion of all matter in the universe.
"Einstein has been looking for it for 25 years, but has failed," says Rousel, who is anxious to make his elnins a matter of public record, lest the credit for his "discoveries" go to others.

A proof of the accuracy of his on conclusions, Rousel says that October 24, 1910, he forecast that the motion of the planets would be found to be faster in their orbits; that on November 12, Dr Edwin Carpenter, of Steward Observatory, Arizona, actually found that the planet Mer- cury was 1,000 miles ahead of its scheduled time on its passage across the sun's disk,
