The staff of the Alexandria Research Center is grateful to all who 

 have cooperated to develop and maintain the work. Additional cooperation 

 is in prospect, and it is anticipated that research can soon be started on 

 problems that so far have had to be neglected because of insufficient 

 facilities.
