Abstract
THE issue of NATURE of July 9, p. 44, contains a communication by Prof. R. Robinson, in which, on purely speculative grounds, far-reaching conclusions are drawn (1) regarding the origin in Nature of galactose, and (2) regarding the configuration of the pentose of the plant nucleic acid. The second conclusion met with the approval of Haworth.
