Abstract
THE Council of the British Association resolved, at its meeting on Friday last, that the Association should become a constituent member of the Parliamentary Science Committee, and appointed as its representative Prof. Allan Ferguson, one of the general secretaries of the Association. The arrangement made is subject to revision after three years. The announcement will afford particular pleasure to the members of the British Science Guild, which has now been incorporated with the British Association. The Guild and the Association of Scientific Workers were the parent bodies of the Parliamentary Science Committee, which came into being in October 1933, almost immediately after the presidential address of Sir Frederick Gowland Hopkins at the Leicester meeting of the British Association.
