Abstract
WE learn with astonishment that it appears to have been decided to suspend the publication of the Kew Bulletin. We say “appears,” because it seeths almost incredible to anyone with a sense of proportion of the issues involved that such an unfortunate step can really be seriously contemplated. It is, however, announced that the Controller of H.M. Stationery Office (the publisher) has been instructed to form a priority list of printed books and to defer the publication of everything which is not essential, that it has been ruled that the Kew Bulletin is not essential, and that its publication has therefore been suspended. It would be of interest to know what steps were taken to enable a considered judgment to be arrived at as regards this useful publication, and to what extent those responsible for its discontinuance are competent to form a just opinion on the merits of what is mainly a technical journal.
