SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH.
el EXCHANGE OF EXPERTS. n ? s j NEW YORK, June C. t j Proie.-sor Copeland, of Australia, since c I his arrival in New York, has had sevv' eral consultations with the authorities jof the Laura Spellman Rockefeller _ Memorial. On the eve of his departure " I for England he said it was intended in the near future to arrange through __ | various agencies for a mutual intera change of research scholars in the social ,j sciences between the United States and „ Australia.
This research, he said, is a pronounced feature of the general activities of the universities in America and as a result a great many expert students are being trained each year. These are not readily absorbed into private businesses or Government Departments. Many private businesses have their own research staffs and all the important banks have consulting economists.
Professor Copeland said Australian students studying at the American oni versifies would have the opportunity of becoming thoroughly acquainted with the activities in research. This could noi but react favourably on the development of business organisation and Govern ment administration in Australia.
One of the outstanding features of the present economic situation in the United States is tlie great volume of capital available for investment. This was having the effect of promoting an increasing interest in the field of foreign investment. — (A. and N.Z.)
