The report which has been made 10 Secretary
Long IN regard to the management Of the Naval
Observatory will occasion some surprise by the
moderation Of its suggestions For several
years there has been a growing dissatisfaction
with the exceedingly limited quantity Of work
done at this admirably equipped National in
stitution. The astronomers Of the country were
almost unanimous in their criticism and in the
conviction that a change was necessary If scan
dal was to be prevented Finally, little over
a year ago the conference Of astronomers which
met M Cambridge for purely scientific purposes
appointed a committee 10 investigate the mat
ter and offer recommendations as TO the best
disposition to make Of r. In some way which
does not clearly appear this delegation has been
induced 10 constitute part Of a board appointed

Affairs and a member Of the corresponding
House committee. Such an arrangement fore
Swallowed compromise perhaps but at any
rate. the conclusions arrived at are not 50 rad

protest Of the unofficial scientific element has

and that there still remain few astronomers
who are in doubt about the wisdom Of entire

considerations. such as confidence in the present

But although n concession has been made 10
