Abstract
THREE weeks ago, we expressed the hope that some French scientific workers would succeed in reaching Great Britain. This hope has been realized and we are already in touch with some of them. At the time of the capitulation of their country, some were already in Great Britain; some left southern France just in time; others escaped, in more or less dramatic circumstances, from that part of their unhappy country now occupied by the enemy. At present, they are not a large body, but they hope, and we hope with them, that they may be joined by others who may follow in the future.
