TitleLetter from James H Gardiner, on behalf of Sir William Crookes, 7 Kensington Park Gardens, London, W. 11., to The Secretary, The Royal Society
CreatorCrookes; William (1832-1919); British chemist
Gardiner; James H (fl 1919)
Date25 March 1919
DescriptionDue to Sir William Crookes' increasing feebleness, Gardiner informs that he has taken over the editorship of the Chemical News. Intends to make slight changes to the paper's management and seeks the Royal Society's stance on reprinting papers previously published by the Society, particularly those related to spectroscopy and rare elements. Details specific papers of interest and requests guidance on whether continuing Sir William's practice would be appropriate.
