Abstract
THE British Council has a small fund for the assistance of overseas delegates wishing to attend national or international conferences held in the United Kingdom on scientific subjects including agriculture, engineering and medicine. Except in special circumstances, fares to and from the United Kingdom will not be paid, and the grants are mainly designed to cover subsistence of the delegate for the duration of the conference up to a period of two weeks. Conveners of conferences to be held during the period April 1, 1949–March 31, 1950, should apply to the Director, Visitors Department, British Council, 3 Hanover Street, London, W.I, giving full details including the number of delegates requiring assistance and their nationalities. Such information should be lodged preferably not later than January 15, and replies will be made by the end of February.
