AUCKLAND, N. A. May 4- lCPl-A frequent complaint by tducationists and scientists in New Iceland that the Dominion ex- m her best brains. has been

orced by recent reports of serious shortages of skilled spec- ialists in several professions.

A large proportion of the bril- liant students at New Zealand universities go overseas after gra- duation for advance studies at in- stitutions abroad. The majority go to Oxford or Cambridge univer- sities in Britain. Many of them find there are better-paid posi- tions available overseas.

Some of them would like to re- turn, but cannot find suitable openings in a small country like New Zeaiand for their special ab- ilities. Others are deterred by the lack of facilities for further re- search.

Many people claim that New Zealand now retains only the less brilliant students and does not at- tract the to capable men from abroad.

This view has lately been ques- tioned by the minister of education Mr. T. McCombs, who himself hold a New Zealand science de- gree. Many of New Zealands best scientists do leave, he says, but in turn large numbers of import- antjobs are filled by men from overseas who bring a wider and more varied outlook than could be obtained if all posts were occupied by men who had never been abroad. Many New Zealandezs, he adds, do return and they bring back enriched experience.

He claims that a professorship at a New Zealand university, worth about $4800 a year. has been found by men returning from North America to give a living standard comparable with those at American universities with

higher salaries and higher costs.

McComb admits that there is an acute shortage of skilled men, es- pecially for scientific posts. One cause, he thinks, is the high sal- aries at present being made by doctors. Men who would make ex- cellent scientists decide to become

doctors. Even when they prove w-

be indifferent practitioners they can still make high salarigg

Two Year Bike Ride Siill Going Siron_g

(l! The Canadian rim)

EDMONTON, May 3—R.0bert Scott MoArihur is the man to see if you want an "ﬂppBUtC like a horse and legs of steel."

The sOlld, 23-year-old Scot straddled his bicycle in Vancouver one day in 1947 and will collect a sizable wager when he returns but that may not be for some time yet because Scottie has come to love the life on the open road.

Asked when he expected to hit Vancouver again, he replied: "Weel, ye nay kin teli-I may go noo or I may go to the States for a wee while."

Born in Scotland, Scottie came to Canada while still a. "wee balm" and, apparently, gained a strong desire to be other than where he happens to be at any given time. So he began going somewhere else in 1947 and has been pedalling around North Am- erica ever since.

To list all the places he has been on his travels would take time and space but he has ranged down to Montreal and has pretty well covered Western Canada and the United States.

Only three mishaps have marred an otherwise happy two-year ride. Once he got some teeth knocked out when he hit a car in London, Ont... he froze both feet early in the morning just out of Moose Jaw. and he went into a Mcnircal

(By Robert Man. Canadian Press Staffwrlter)

NEW YORK, May 4—(OP)—The United States is starting‘ a pro- gram to build a merchant marine that can compete on equal term-S with fleets of other countries.

In charge of the plan is the United States Maritime Commis- sion, set up in i036. During and before the war, it made long-range studies “to promote the commerce of the United States and aid in the national defence."

Wartime losses. post-war sales and scrapping reduced the United States merchant fleet to fewer than 3,400 ships from a pesk war strength oi’ 6,200.

Under its new program, the Commission will grant subsidies to ship builders and operators to make up the difference ‘between costs of construction and opera- tion in the United States and other countries. Costs in North America are higher because of higher labor charges.

Construction of’ new ships will be subsidized up to 4.5 per cent. A hrther “iterating dihrdllal subsidy" will vary with the routes travelled. l

Post-War Situation

After the war many countries, iorcseeing increased traffic. start- ed heavy building programs. But United States yards were clogged with war-fitted "austerity" ships being converted to peacetime use. Still other ships could not be con- verted. remaining in..servlce to bring troops, displaced persons and war brides from overseas.

Of the total tonnage under con- stcruction in 1947, only five per cent was being built in the United States. The current program will increase the American proportion. In its first contracts. let in Aug- ust, i948, the Maritime Commis- sion atiacked the most conspicu-

fleet-passenger liners. Ono con- tract calls for two ships of about 20,500 gross tons, 638 feet long and capable of a speed of 23 knots.
