ACKNOWLEDGMENTS TO MEMBERS OF COMMITTEES AND ORGANIZATIONS In conclusion it is desired to acknowledge the valuable service, so generously given, by the committee members, and by many other persons representing Government Departments, local authorities, and industries, including the executive officers of commercial, industrial, and professional organizations. Although needs arising out of wartime conditions have made heavy demands upon their service and time, they have nevertheless continued to extend an unstinted measure of co-operation. A. R. Galbraith, Chairman, Standards Council.
