WW wanted to talk to RJ about his statistical section in the BAAS: 'I want to see setting to work in a reasonable and promising manner. I do not think the best mode to proceed is by advertisement '. A copy of the section's resolutions should be sent to all persons who seemed likely to be worth the trouble. After this they may 'develop and systematize' each of their 5 subject areas: 'I am myself much disposed to thumb my fingers into your economical statistics, but I have so much else to do I will avoid it if I can'.
