Abstract
THE American Association for the Advancement of Science recently forwarded to the British Association a resolution adopted by its Council, inviting the collaboration of British men of science with their American colleagues in framing a charter of democracy on scientific principles. The resolution was passed to express whole-hearted support of the rights of free peoples of the world and the desire of scientific men to share in the responsibility of maintaining them at this time of international stress. It was intended as a significant joining of ‘hands across the sea’ in a common cause and with the hope that the grasp might lead to effective action.
