Science is not yet regarded as a commercial factor in England. Is 

 there no one who, realizing the importance of the alliance, will 

 come forward with more ample funds to start us on our course with a 

 fair prospect of success ? One real friend has recently told us in print 

 that the new institution is on such a microscopic scale that its utility 

 in the present struggle is more than doubtful. Is there no statesman 

 who can grasp the position and see that, with say double the income.
