Abstract
A MELANCHOLY interest attaches to this paper, the last from Kammerer's pen, which was published only a few months before his tragic death last year. Like his other publications, it is based entirely on work done before the War; for since the War, owing especially to the socialism which became rampant in Vienna, the University of Vienna has become so impoverished that it was unable to pay any but starvation salaries to its staff, and Kammerer left its service and supported himself by journalism and popular lecturing from 1924 until his death.
