TitleLetter from Richard Tetley Glazebrook, National Physical Laboratory, Bushy House, Teddington, Middlesex, to Joseph Larmor, Royal Society, Burlington House
Date29 November 1905
DescriptionThe position is not easy. Glazebrook asks if it would help to notify the chemical industry people what he proposed to do with Beilby, with options, including succeeding Carpenter. Sir Schomberg McDonnell will tell the Treasury that his experts know better than the committee what it costs to build. Suggests an alternative form of words on what the Society is not prepared to adopt, but says that Larmor, Kempe and Rayleigh know best.
