Abstract
THE Council' of the Chemical Society proposes to celebrate during July 15-17, 1947, the centenary of the foundation of the Society, which was due in 1941. Many distinguished overseas chemists are being invited. It is hoped to arrange a series of special events, both social and scientific, which will include an exhibition to illustrate the Society's history. An Executive Committee to make arrangements for the celebrations has been set up with Prof. C. N. Hinshelwood, president of the Society, as chairman, and Dr. D. C. Martin, general secretary of the Society, as secretary. It is anticipated that the Eleventh International Congress on Pure and Applied Chemistry will take place immediately following the centenary celebrations of the Chemical Society.
