Letter from William B Hardy to Sir Henry Rew of the Ministry of Food Has been thinking over the role of the committee -- notes that it can continue to do its original task of providing technical support -- thinks that it can also do 'higher work' if allowed to critically analyse -- recommends that [Udny] Yule be added to the Committee, so as to be able to report directly to Rew or Davenport. 3 May 1917
