Mok, Michel. "Attacks Relativity Idea at 79th Birthday Luncheon - Says He Has Found a Speed Greater Than Lights," N. Y. Post, July 11, 1935. (Tesla theory is that there is no energy in matter except that received from without. Considers theory of relativity a mass of error. Announces that mechanical energy can be transmitted to any part of the globe, allowing location of mineral deposits.) (n)
