The fact, was that contained in the properties of matter, there was an immense source of energy so far inaccessible, but which he saw in reason why the progress of dis

There would be no smoke due to imperfect combustion and no dirt due to the transit of coal or asbes, while the power would be very compact and clean. Possibly there might occasionally be explosions due to the liberation of power more quickly than it was wanted.. but in general he presumed that the conditions of utilization would be good.
Sir Oliver explained that the secret of this power begun to be given away "when radio-netivity was discovered, and sid
