Abstract
MAY I again direct attention to the conditions under which grants are made to individual research workers by the Committee of the Privy Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (London: H.M. Stationery Office, 1919. Price 6d.)? The matter is of some importance, as not only are those who refuse to accept these conditions debarred from participating in the grants made from the public purse for scientific research, but other sources which used to be available, and to which such conditions were not attached, are also being cut off. I understand, for example, that the Carnegie Trust for the Universities of Scotland intends very largely in the future to discontinue its grants in aid of research, and to refer applicants to the Government.
