The National Bureau of Standards
DOI: 10.1063/1.3061254
Since the time I was first asked to speak at this meeting of the American Physical Society, events have occurred that are of appreciable importance to the National Bureau of Standards. These events have been sufficiently well publicized that there is no need for me to specify them. Furthermore, committees of specialists have been or are being set up to resolve the basic issues of the controversy involving the Bureau and its directorship. Hence, I believe it to be inappropriate for me on this occasion to discuss the case except to convey appreciation to the members of the American Physical Society, and others, for their expressions of confidence and support. For these we are sincerely grateful.
