VETERINARY SCIENCE
NEED FOR GRADUATE SCHOOL (New Zealand Press Association) NEW PLYMOUTH, Feb. 12. The first and foremost deficiency in the progress to veterinary science in the Dominion was the lack cf a teaching institution for veterinary science in a country so completely dependent on the health of its animals, claimed Mr A D. M. G. Laing, M.R.C.V.S., in his presidential address today to the annual conference of the New Zealand Veterinary Association. The association had supported the New Zealand Veterinary College proposal as strongly as it was able, and its arguments were so well known that there was no object in repeating them, he said. •
He did, however, emphasise the importance of a graduate and post-gradu-ate school of veterinary science in New Zealand equal to the best of the overseas schools. Such was essential to enable veterinary surgeons to function properly in their profession. -
