"but since we are unacquainted with the structure and nature of this universal medium, we are always driven to interpret the state of strain in terms of the forces on electrical charges. Thus the only evidence for discriminating between the two theories is that the electric phenomena require time for their propagation"....

(Note: All Krafft spellings of ether should be Aether to distinguish it from the element "ether").

Excerpts:

"The electrostatic field is usually considered as a condition of stress or strain in the ether (Krafft assumes free space has Aether which it does not), but the difficulty of such a concept is that a condition of stress or strain can exist only in a solid body having rigidity whereas the ether, (That Aether which the earth generates and is confined to it) cannot possess rigity. If the ether is not a rigid solid then it must be a fluid, and if this fluid is incompressible then the electrostatic field can be nothing other than a state of flow or circulation therein"...

After demonstrating a proton and its magnetic field, Krafft concludes (concerning current-carrying wires) that,

"The ether therefore cannot be considered as flowing in circular or spiral paths around the current-carrying wires".

After considering the "magnetic field consists of a flow of ether longitudinally of the wire carrying current, the ether presumably being carried along by the moving electrons", he says this theory breaks down and explains why and concludes,

"The ether therefore cannot be considered as being merely carried along by the moving electrons or protons"

In his Ether Vortex Theory he mentions that it teaches that "protons
and electrons do not merely carry the adjacent ether along with them, but that they keep it in circulation between them"...

In explaining one proton and one electron ether flow and magnifying that many times, Krafft mentions, "For reasons explained elsewhere, it seems more probable that the direct axial or polar flow of ether is from the protons to the electrons instead of the reverse direction. The axial or polar flow will then be confined to the "inside" of the current-carrying wire, while the return flow will be principally on the outside of the wire and in the opposite direction. Two parallel wires carrying electric current flowing in the same direction will then attract each other"...

Krafft adds, "Under the Ether Vortex Theory when an electric current is started in a wire there will be established a return flow of ether externally to the wire in a direction opposite to the direction of the movement of the electrons"...

Considering Vortex Rings Theory and the ethers direction of travel, Krafft says, "The foregoing concept of the magnetic field is capable of direct experimental test...in which the the (Diagramed) circle represents the end face of a very large electromagnet, and the curved arrows represent the direction of flow of the ether. With an interferometer arranged as shown there should be a shift of the interference fringes when the solenoidal current is turned on, provided the ether flows with sufficient velocity.The direction of the shift should be such as to indicate a flow of ether in a direction opposite to the direction of travel of the negative electrons in the solenoidal current"...

Skipping ahead slightly we find, "This conclusion seems to be corroborated by that fact that nearly all substances when placed in a magnetic field will rotate the plane of polarization of light in the direction of the solenoidal electric current, namely in a direction opposite to the direction of movement of the negative electrons. In those few cases (ferric chloride for example) where the rotation is in the reverse direction it is probably due to some peculiarity of the molecular structure".

2.7 Electrostatic 

(Note: An Alchemist, Franz Tausend produced microscopic amounts of gold from a solution of Ferric Chloride, sand and electric current (300 volts for 20 minutes I believe. It was an inefficient process).

An interesting conclusion of Krafft is this quote, " It is generally stated that like electric charges repel each other, whereas like charges attract. This, however, is not the whole truth. If we charge one body electrostatically to minus1,000 volts, and another body to minus 2,000 volts, they will repel each other because they have like charges. But if we take these two charged bodies into some region of the upper atmosphere where there is an absolute potential of -- 1,500 volts, they will attract each other. Electrostatic attraction and repulsion is therefore not merely a function of the charges, but also depends on the cooperation of the environment, namely on the way in which the circulating ether of the protons and electrons encounter that from extraneous sources".

"An atom or a molecule can absorb radiation only in discrete quanta and can do so only at the energy states allowed by quantum mechanics"
