Abstract
WITH regard to the ‘conducting layer’, my objection was to associating it with the name of either Heaviside or Kennelly. It would probably be best, as in the case of the ‘penetrating radiation’, to attach no personal name, but if a name is to be attached, the claims of Balfour Stewart, as I have already explained in the columns of NATURE, seem to me to come first.
