Abstract
Perhaps it is in order to comment on the fact that there are now a large number of people interested in large-scale calculating machines.

It shows how interest is — to use the expression someone used a little earlier — “snowballing.” Interest in such a field is bound to gather momentum as more people learn of its potentialities.
