Abstract
THE first annual Research and Development lecture arranged by the British Science Guild was delivered, on May 16, in the hall of the Carpenters' Company, London, by Sir Harold Carpenter, his subject being “Metals in the Service of Human Life and Industry”. Lord Melchett, who presided, said that the lecture had been instituted to direct attention to the importance of research—both purely scientific and technical—and the utilisation of its results for the benefit of mankind. The British Science Guild desired the lecture to be associated with the name of Sir Richard Gregory, who as Editor of NATURE, and in other activities, had done so much to secure increased recognition of the services rendered by science and scientific workers to progressive life.
