Abstract :
During the year, the Foundation printed its annual report of 120 pages and 24 Research Narratives. The annual report contained the second progress report on fatigue of metals, a report on graphitic corrosion of cast iron by J. Vipond Davies and other statements. The Narratives are going directly to many parts of the world and some of them are being reprinted in technical journals at home and abroad. A book of research stories is being prepared at the request and with the assistance of a group of directors of research in large industries. Foundations services as a clearing house and a bureau of information have continued.
