A SLIGHT adaptation of the explanation offered by your correspondent Mr. G. W. Butler (April 10, p. 137) appears to furnish a more natural solution of the problem. When an object at rest is seen against a background which it closely resembles there is nothing to differentiate between the object and the slight irregularities of the background. So soon as the object moves, such a differentiation becomes possible, the moving irregularities being now attributed to their real origin. It seems unnecessary to assume a ``cumulative impression of contrast.''
