ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Again it is fitting that this report should conclude with an expression of appreciation of the valuable service rendered by the members of the committees of the Standards Council, and by officers of various Government Departments, local authorities, professional, commercial, industrial, trade, and consumer organizations. All these, including those who have been required to travel from distant centres, have given unstintingly of their time, knowledge, and experience whenever called upon to do so without thought of recognition or reward other than the satisfaction of contributing towards the welfare of the Dominion. E. H. Langford, Chairman, Standards Council.
