Date26 November 1942
DescriptionHas had several enquiries 'as to whether the Royal Society could help' with the paper shortage - encloses his reply to such enquiries. Notes that in many journals the published papers 'have no relation at all to the urgent needs of the present day...it would be difficult to argue that effort should be spent in printing and publishing them when that effort could be better spent in helping to defeat the enemy'.
