| Description | With reference to the Secretary's letter of 22 December, S.31241/02, the Seismological Committee appointed by the Council of the Royal Society has been consulted with regard to the selection of suitable representatives to attend the proposed International Seismological Congress, and are unanimous in recommending Professor George Howard Darwin FRS and Professor John Milne FRS, as representatives of the United Kingdom for this purpose. There is little doubt that this recommendation will receive the formal approval of Council at its next meeting on 22 January. Neither of the gentlemen named has been consulted by the Royal Society as willing to serve. |
