Notes and topics

Rotblat encloses a letter to Cyrus Eaton for BR to sign, asking for financial help for the conference in India (record 7518).

Rotblat informs BR that the Atomic Scientists' Association is planning to start a journal called The Atomic Age, keeping the public informed on issues regarding atomic energy. Rotblat has become editor of The Atomic Age.

"I am very anxious that we should get as wide a circulation as possible and felt that it would be a great help to us if we were able to get the backing of a number of well known personalities. I believe that one of my colleagues has written to you to ask you for an appreciation of about 300 words, in which you would say something about the importance of such a journal and the function it may fulfill."
