- W266718749 abstract "This chapter discusses F. E. Simon's life in Oxford and the Clarendon. His salary dropped considerably in the move to England but that was obviously of no concern when it meant the safety of his family. More important than the drop in salary was the loss of a secure position. By English standards, German professors were well paid; above all their position was permanent and their salary assured until their death. Simon was forty when he came to England and on I.C.I, grants, first for a two year period and then for a further three year period, he could not really feel that he had a job rather that he was living on I.C.I.'s charity. His early reactions to the situation were expressed in a letter to one of his American friends, Professor E. O. Lawrence of Berkeley University, who wrote congratulating him on his safe landing at Oxford—Glad for your sake and also for Oxford. In the early days, Simon had only one experimental room in which, since funds for scientific research at Oxford were so scanty, he would have found very few experiments possible had it not been for the equipment he had managed to bring with him from Germany. He had to do his own secretarial work as well as many of the jobs normally undertaken by a mechanic. Although he was later able to overcome some of the limitations of the Clarendon by extending a part of his work to Amsterdam and Paris, he knew that he could not continue indefinitely in this way." @default.
