Abstract
THE White Paper on Scientific Man-power, which will be dealt with in forthcoming issues of Nature, was published on May 27 (H.M. Stationery Office, 6d. net). The Lord President of the Council, Mr. Herbert Morrison, in reply to a question by Mr. Phillips Price, in the House of Commons on that day said that the Committee's report “makes a strong case for a very substantial expansion in the output of qualified scientists from the universities at the earliest possible date. The Government are in general agreement with the conclusions of the Committee, which we recognize will involve a substantial liability on the Exchequer. We hope that they will receive the immediate and serious consideration of the university authorities, so that detailed proposals for giving effect to them can be formulated in consultation with the University Grants Committee”. The constitution of the Committee was published in Nature of December 8, 1945, p. 686.
