Some months ago Prof. M. J. Stewart (1933) gave an address on silicosis in which he covered the whole of the pathology of the various types of the disease. It may seem strange, therefore, that the same subject should be chosen for discussion so shortly afterwards. My apologia is that silicosis presents manysided problems and that since Prof. Stewart's paper appeared the claim has been ventured that the cause of silicosis has been demonstrated. Discussions have been taking place during the past twelve months at the Institution of Mining and Metallurgy—discussions stimulating in themselves and showing the necessity of further research along old and new avenues.
