Reference number: RR/W/5/114
Date: 04 October 1937
Description
Paper reference code: B.174
States 'this paper does not lie within my competence', and recommends that [George Edward] Briggs would be more suitable. Comments that the paper is poorly written and some figures are not necessary. Due to lack of expertise, is unsure whether the paper is suitable for the Proceedings [of the Royal Society], and asks for his feedback to be passed to a more qualified referee, if appropriate.
[Not published in Royal Society journals but in the Annals of Botany, vol.3, number 11, July 1939, pp.587-600].
