Abstract
PROF. MOTZ'S model of an electrically charged fundamental particle is of particular interest because it directly contradicts the commonly held view that gravitational fields on the atomic scale are quite negligible. By means of some bold but simple hypotheses he appears to obtain a model of an electron (or proton) which is capable of holding its parts together against the electric forces of repulsion between these parts.
