PROF. GAMOW appears to agree with our view that accretion of hydrogen by the stars from the cosmical cloud would be important if the rate were sufficiently rapid to compensate the transmutation of hydrogen within the stars. He believes, however, that the accretion rate is too low for this to be happening in the case of a typical giant by a factor of order 104. Since the publication of our initial paper1 on this problem, we have been able to proceed further with the discussion of the physical aspects of the process, and we have been able to show that in reality the difficulty mentioned by Prof. Gamow does not arise.
