ZOOLOGICAL RECORD 245 
G (Engineering), the following resolution was forwarded by the General 
Committee to the Council for consideration and, if desirable, for action : 
That the British Association awaits with great interest the result of the 
careful consideration which His Majesty’s Government has promised to 
give to the question of an Inland Water Survey, and trusts that the 
Government will be favourable to the establishment of an organised 
survey of the water resources of the country on a scientific basis. 
ZOOLOGICAL RECORD. 
Report of Committee appointed to co-operate with other Sections interested, 
and with the Zoological Society, for the purpose of obtaining support 
for the ‘Zoological Record’ (Sir SipNeEy. Harmer, K.B.E., F.R.S., 
Chairman; Dr. W. 'T. Caiman, F.R.S., Secretary; Prof. E. S. 
GoopricH, F.R.S., Prof. D. M. 5. Watson, F.R.S.). 
THE grant of £50 was paid over to the Zoological Society on June 2, 1934, 
as a contribution towards the cost of preparing and publishing Volume 
LXIX of the Zoological Record for 1932. ‘The statement of the ‘ Record 
Fund ’ given in the report of the Council of the Zoological Society for 1933 
shows that the balance in hand had again increased slightly, from 
£2,286 15s. 4d. to £2,317 18s. 2d. ‘The loss on Volume LXIX is given as 
£1,055 16s. 6d., against which has to be set £246 7s. 11d. received from 
sales of back volumes, leaving a net deficit of £809 8s. 7d. This is met by 
contributions of £500 from the Zoological Society, £200 from the Trustees 
of the British Museum, and smaller sums from other contributing societies. 
It is clear that the Zoological Record could not be carried on without such 
help, and it is, therefore, most important that the support of the British 
Association should be continued. The Committee accordingly asks for 
reappointment, with the renewal of the grant of £50.
