H.斯托佩斯-罗伊同意我的批评，认为分辨力公式对测不准原理的应用是无关紧要的。然而，他的信给人的印象是，我所关心的是过时的物质，而在新的波粒理论中，这个位置是相当令人满意的。我想说明，我的批评是针对一种在整个科学中被普遍接受为合理的应用，这种应用经常与类似于斯托普斯-罗伊先生所概述的分析一起出现在教科书中。虽然这个新理论自从由德布罗意布罗意和其他人提出以来，已经越来越强大，但我发现它是不可能接受的，而且我相信许多人一定和我有同样的困难。波粒二象性已经够令人不安的了，但更令人不安的是量子理论逻辑的难以理解的二象性。
H. V. STOPES-ROE agrees with my criticism that the application of the resolution-power formula to the uncertainty principle is irrelevant. His letter conveys the impression, however, that I have concerned myself with out-of-date matter and that the position is quite satisfactory in the new wave-particle theory. I wish to make it clear that my criticism was levelled at an application which is generally accepted throughout the science as sound, and which frequently appears in text-books side by side with analysis similar to that sketched out by Mr. Stopes-Roe. Although the new theory has gone from strength to strength since its introduction by de Broglie and others, I find it impossible to accept, and I am sure many must share my difficulties. The wave-particle duality is disturbing enough; but even more so is the incomprehensible duality of quantum theory logic.
