LOSS OF PROFESSORS
♦ DEPARTURE FROM AUSTRALIA CONTACT WITH CONTINENTS Tt is the custom to invite applications within the Empire for chairs at English universities and this is a matter for regret in academic circles in Australia. The balance of trade in the export and import ol professors is against Australia, says; the Vice-Chancellor of the University of Melbourne, Mr J. D. G. Medley, and scientists and physicians of great attainments have been lost in re rent years, for it is unusual for such men to return. In Britain, he says, they are very much more closely in contact with other universities and with Europe and America, and do not feel so far away from seats of learning as in Australia.
