Regrets deeply the little notice given to the observatories and to Humphrey Lloyd in the R.S.L. President's recent speech. Urges ES to comfort Lloyd. States R.S.L. 'is no longer the sole arena in which a scientific name can be acquired.'
Declines to take steps to call a special committee or council meeting of the R.S.L. regarding foreign communications of the observatories, noting his own wish to stay out of R.S.L. affairs.
