Splendid Achievements.

We really didn't realise that Mr. Savage loved us so much! Because he really has done a terrible lot for us. Graduates have been extensively employed in the Department of Scientific and industrial Research, the Geological Survey Department, and the Bureau of Social Science. The development of meteorological research has been made necessary by aviation expansion, and in this field and in that of plant research, qualified men have been sought after.

"All of these Department have called for University men nod recruitment has been largely made outside the radius of the existing Public Service. Those men who have spent a number of years fitting themselves for specialised work could not, of course, have joined the Government Service under the ordinary conditions which apply to cadetship. They were necessarily older and provision was made for them to be employed whatever their age, and they were given salaries which were fitting to their age, knowledge and experience."

The Government is to be congratulated on the splendid progress it has made in this, direction in so short a time.
