NOTICE TO CONTRIBUTORS
Contributors are advised that the Central Bureau is unable to
make specific acknowledgment of the receipt of material submitted
for publication on these Circulars, and they should consider the
act of publication as sufficient acknowledgment. Information
communicated by telegram and especially by telex (to the TWX number
above) will almost invariably be received quickly and satisfactorily.
The CBAT/MPC Computer Service provides an even more efficient
means of communication of data, and use of BITNET/EARN messages
to MARSDEN1 on computer node CFA1 has also proven reliable.
If a contributor wishes to ensure that a message is received, he or
she should send a second copy by an alternate route; this could
be, in particular, a mailed copy to the postal address above.
