TitleLetter from Frederick Soddy, Old Chemistry Department, University Museum, Oxford, to William Bate Hardy, the Secretary of the Royal Society, Burlington House, London
Date28 February 1923
DescriptionThanking Hardy for the reply on Council's decision with regard to the King and Mason b-Eucaine claim. If the facts of the case are as represented by the Treasury, then the Royal Society 'appears to be running with the hare and hunting with the hounds, using its prestige among juniors to secure their cooperation and its relations with the Government to exploit them'. He thinks that volunteers should not suffer a penalty as far as patent law concerns them.
