Abstract
This paper shows how the ten conserved quantities, recently discovered by E. T. Newman and R. Penrose by essentially geometrical techniques, arise in a direct solution of the Einstein field equations. For static fields it is shown that five of the conserved quantities vanish while the remaining five are expressed in terms of the multipole moments of the source distribution.Keywords
