Abstract
THE news of the death on November 27 of Dr. Wilhelm Schmidt, the director of the Central Institute of Meteorology at Vienna, comes as a great blow to his friends and colleagues in meteorology and geophysics. Many of us had seen him recently at Edinburgh at the meeting of the International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics, quite recovered from his illness, keen and interested as always, full of energy and to all appearances with a long period of active scientific work still before him.
