Abstract
IN a note in NATUBE of December 23, 1933, p. 960, on Dr. J. Ball's paper in the Geographical Journal for October on the utilisation of the Qattara depression for water power, a misprint occurs in the estimate of distance that the power would need to be transmitted to the Nile delta. This figure should be 150 miles, a distance over which water power could be readily transmitted, whereas the distance from the Aswan dam to the delta is 560 miles.
