Abstract
I HAVE to thank Prof. Dale for pointing out the very serious error that I made when I assumed that the variation of centrifugal force was the only action operative in the Eötvös revolving balance, and I must apologise to Mr. Korda for having treated his account of this beautiful device as inaccurate as well as inadequate.
