DISCUSSION 91 



I will begin by reading the names of the speakers, 

 as they have been sent in to me. 1 



At the head of the list stands the name of 

 Professor Plate, who will open the debate. He is 

 a member of our Committee, and as he proposes to 

 give a sketch of the whole subject under discussion, 

 we have allowed him to speak for half an hour. 

 Dr. Bolsche will next address you, and then 

 Professor Dahl, after whom comes Dr. Friedenthal, 

 to whom, in consideration of the subject which 

 he has chosen, we have assigned twenty minutes. 

 He will be followed by Professor von Hansemann 

 and Count von Hoensbroech, to whom also we have 

 assigned twenty minutes. Then come the names 

 of Dr. Juliusburger, Dr. Plotz, and Dr. Schmidt- 

 Jena. I do not know whether Professor Stumpf 

 wishes to speak or not, but I shall give him the 

 opportunity of doing so, as I was told that he 

 intended to say something. 2 



Dr. Thesing will speak last. I have just been 

 told that Mr. Itelson wishes to say a few words on 

 the historical aspect of the matter. He will have 

 his turn after Count von Hoensbroech. 



All the speakers, with the exception of Professor 

 Plate, Dr. Friedenthal, and Count von Hoensbroech, 

 are limited to ten minutes, and I think we must 

 adhere strictly to this arrangement, and therefore 



1 i.e. the names of those speakers who remained of the original twenty- 

 fire. See above, p. 86. 



2 When invited to speak at almost half-past eleven o clock, Professor 

 Stumpf declined to do so.
