I feel that in the botanical field our biggest present need is for 
a greater amount of fundamental research. I hope very much 
that your Garden, as well as many other private botanical institu- 
tions in America, may expand in this direction. 
Very sincerely yours, 
igned) WILLIAM CROCKER, 
Director
