==Abstract==

<em>It<sup><span style="FONT-SIZE: x-small">&nbsp;</span></sup>is argued here that all the mass in the world<sup><span style="FONT-SIZE: x-small">&nbsp;</span></sup>is of electromagnetic origin and that this must be described<sup><span style="FONT-SIZE: x-small">&nbsp;</span></sup>by the short-range fields of Set 2 Maxwell's equations. In<sup><span style="FONT-SIZE: x-small">&nbsp;</span></sup>support of this argument, the work-energy theorem and the work-potential<sup><span style="FONT-SIZE: x-small">&nbsp;</span></sup>energy theorem from mechanics are applied to classical electrodynamics. The<sup><span style="FONT-SIZE: x-small">&nbsp;</span></sup>forms so derived aid in recognizing the particle properties momentum<sup><span style="FONT-SIZE: x-small">&nbsp;</span></sup>and kinetic energy in both ?force-field? and potential forms. One<sup><span style="FONT-SIZE: x-small">&nbsp;</span></sup>disconcerting conclusion is that both mass and charge densities must<sup><span style="FONT-SIZE: x-small">&nbsp;</span></sup>always travel at</em> c; ''as a consequence, a rest particle<sup><span style="FONT-SIZE: x-small">&nbsp;</span></sup>must spin''.
