The programme of proper motions with the 20-inch astrograph of the Lick Observatory was conceived and planned by Dr W H. Wright, formerly Director of the Lick Observatory. Not only did he formulate the work in considerable detail but he obtained the grant to purchase the telescope and planned it as a precision instrument admirably adapted to its purpose. A paper published in the Proceedings of the American Philosophica Society, Vol. 94, no. 1, 1950, describes the programme as formulated by Dr Wright.
