Five of the papers deal with grammatical problems. On the whole they maintain much the same high standard, but they are much more difficult to discuss in detail because of their wider variety of subject matter. My comments must be briefer than the papers deserve.

W. H. Whiteley writes on The Verbal Radical in Iraqw. This must be considered primarily an amendment and supplement to his early A short Description of Item-Categories in Iraqw. It exhibits much the same descriptive technique and is open to much the same criticisms. The treatment seems unnecessarily loose jointed and complex, largely because the method is lax and the analysis seems never to be pushed to a satisfactory or even a consistent stopping-point.
