We use a transformation due to Bekenstein to relate the ADM and Bondi masses
of asymptotically-flat solutions of the Einstein equations with, respectively,
scalar sources and conformal-scalar sources. Although the conformal-scalar
energy-momentum tensor does not satisfy the Dominant Energy Condition one may,
by this means, still conclude that the ADM mass is positive.
