TitleCopy letter from J D Griffith Davies, Assistant Secretary at the Royal Society to Sir William Bragg PRS
Date29 April 1940
Description ' I referred the applications for licences from Boots to Professor Topley and he is of the opinion that you can safely sign them. REferring to the point which you raised about referring future applications to him Professor Topley writes;
' In view of what Dr Giles has told us, I am not sure that there if any necessity for the President to refer future applixcations to me, but I should be very willing to look at them, and it is just possible that an application might be made which clearly contravenes the Act or which was wrongly worded. In this case it might be worth while to return it for emendation. '

I return the applications from Boots. '
