Abstract
IN his presidential address to the British Association at the Cardiff meeting of 1920, the late Sir William Herdman suggested that the time had come for a new deep-sea expedition on the scale of the Challenger voyage of 1872–74. This proposal was discussed at various Association meetings; a tentative scheme was approved and was then submitted for the consideration of other scientific bodies. The time, however, was regarded as inopportune and the proposal was not taken up. Now, it appears, the movement may come from the United States.
