| Date | February 1932 |
| Description | Sectional committee: Mathematics
Not recommended for publication. He doesn't see how the paper can be usefully amended in its current form and it would take drastic reconstruction before it can be considered suitable. Some of the author's assumptions are doubtful and some statements seem incorrect.
