Abstract
MR. S. C. BRADFORD'S criticism in NATURE of March 11 of Dr. Langmuir's theory is scarcely justifiable, considering that the latter clearly states in his paper (Journ. American Chem. Soc, vol. xli., p. 868, 1919) that the equilibrium positions of the electrons are determined in part by magnetic, and in part by electrostatic, forces, the former necessarily implying electron rotations.
