330 Science After the War
tell what the great discoveries of the future will be, but we
may feel sure that they will be many and wonderful and that
the splendid public support of science in America will result
in this country having an honorable part in the making of
them. Now that the war is over, we may expect that the
Rice Institute will continue to develop, and we may hope
that in the future Houston will come to be regarded as a
center of scientific progress. For this we should have to
thank our generous founder, and our trustees who are carry-
ing on the work he made possible.
Harold A. Wilson.
