The most important of Mr. Amery's proposals referred to the

organization of scientific research. We venture to say that if Mr. Amery's particular plan is accepted, his name will always be honoured for his association with one of the most fruitful ideas in all Colonial policy. He pointed out that the services of men of science, whose work is invaluable, should be embedded in a regular career. At present administrative officials have a career, but the research worker is the odd-job man whose services arc dispensed with when his particular job is ended. Such methods are ineffective and arc, moreover, expensive.* * *
