It is of interest to note that one of the papers to be presented at the R.P.S. Centenary Conference will deal with this problem. Dr. Luyten of Gevaert Photoproducten, N.V. Antwerp, will make suggestions for the interchangeability of negative and positive commercial colour materials. These suggestions will doubtless be most useful to the Society in the preparation of the basic standard. It has recently been announced that the release prints of films produced on integral tri-pack negatives can now be produced by the Technicolor process. It would appear that the Society, by bringing together all interested parties, could, by its investigations, effect a great saving in the production of films in colour.
