Abstract
IN order to assist professional men who in the present emergency find themselves presented with technical problems in applied physics of which they do not happen to have had previous first-hand experience, it has been decided to extend the facilities of the Institute of Physics' panel of consultants. Through this medium inquirers are put into touch with those physicists most likely to be able to offer immediate practical suggestions in any particular case. In the first instance the contact is quite informal; subsequent arrangements are a matter for private agreement between those concerned. The subjects which can be dealt with cover all branches of physics, both pure and applied, including, for example, physical measurements and testing, the design and supply of scientific instruments for special purposes, and the control of processes by physical means.
