Scope and Contents

Rutherford writes that in a letter just received ICI refuses to support the scientists they brought from Germany. With regard to the Nansen Office letter about the possibility of a Nobel Prize award of funds for the Academic Assistance Council, Rutherford agrees Michael Hansen's letter is not encouraging and that the International Institute of Intellectual Co-operation would have first place. Asks Adams to draft an acknowledgement; will see him on Friday at lunch [Friday February 21?].
