page 309 note 1 A check in the British Union Catalogue of Periodicals with the Supplement bringing the information up to 1960 shows that one of the periodicals in question is not taken in any library in the United Kingdom, and five others are accessible only in London, Oxford, or Cambridge. This seems sufficient answer to those who question the value of such republications of collected papers.
