Abstract
THE recent interesting communication of Sir Oliver Lodge to NATURE (March 28) and the Philosophical Magazine on the density of the ether recalls an objection to theories of the ether which identify magnetic intensity with resultant ethereal velocity that does not seem to have received the attention it deserves. The objection arises when the distribution of momentum in the system is taken into consideration.
