Copy letter from John David Griffith Davies, to Sir Henry Thomas Tizard [Royal Society] 'Sir Henry Tizard [Foreign Secretary] I attach a copy of your note relating to the election of Foreign Members. You will see that I have made one alteration. The limitation to 50 dates from 1823, but it was not then Statute 18. In order to avoid confusion therefore I thought it best to eliminate any reference to Statute 18 at this point in your memorandum. I hope you approve. [John David Griffiths Davies] Assistant Secretary' 23 November 1945
