Reference number: RR/69/144

Date: 18 August 1945

Description

He doesn't believe himself to be qualified enough to comment on the paper, as it is 'entirely physiological in its content'. The title of the paper is misleading as it contains no original observation. Professor Burn should be asks to referee the paper instead.

[Published in Proceedings of the Royal Society B, 1947].

Endorsed on recto as received 21 August 1945.
