Abstract
THE statements which Stedman and Stedman1,2,3 have published in NATURE must, it seems, be considered from two points of view. First, there is their chemical analysis leading to the discovery of "chromosomin". Secondly, there are the biological consequences which they have inferred from this discovery. Clearly, tlie chemical analysis is the foundation of everything else; but since no particulars of this analysis have been published, we can deal only with the superstructure.
