TitleReferee's report by Neil Kensington Adam, on a paper 'Freezing-points of solutions of typical colloidal electrolytes; soaps, sulphonates, sulphates and bile salt' by Stewart A Johnston and James William McBain
Date[1942]
DescriptionSectional Committee: Chemistry

Recommended for publication in the 'Proceedings of the Royal Society of London'. Suggests minor corrections for spelling in English rather than American. Finds the remarks on the work of Harold Brewer Hartley to be 'an unfair representation of his very important contributions'; this should not hold up publication, but a brief reply from Harold Brewer Hartley or others, may be called for.

Contains extra question - 'Is there any information contained in the paper which likely to be of value to the enemy?' Referee replies no.

[Published in the 'Proceedings of the Royal Society of London']
