Abstract
INFORMATION regarding the conditions of life in scientific departments is beginning to come from Central Europe. After privations of various kinds Prof. O. Winge, Dr. Westergaard, Dr. A. Skovsted and Dr. C. A. Jorgensen in Denmark have now returned to their posts. One of their greatest difficulties is that they have been cut off from all knowledge of science in the rest of the world, and they are in great need of scientific journals, reprints and similar information. The conditions in Holland and France are even worse, since in many cases the Germans removed anything of scientific value that they could lay their hands on. It is possible to send letterpress to Sweden, Denmark, France and Holland through the Censor in Charge, Postal and Telegraph Censorship Dept. Permit Branch, Aintree, Liverpool, if these are marked "Paragraph 42" and the weight does not exceed 1 oz. for Holland and Denmark, or 4 lb. for Sweden and France. Dr. F. W. Sansome, Botanical Department, University, Manchester, 13, to whom we are indebted for the above information, states that he would be glad to aid in the transmission of such parcels if any difficulty is met with in transmission through the normal channels.
