ited in Europe and America, of those, 20 came
from Germany, 16 from England and 16 from the United States. The average
pay was L384. In the highest Imperial University the average pay is
L684. As soon as Japanese could be found to do the work, even tolerably
well, the foreigner was dropped."

there was no physical laboratory, or any grant made for a practical
experimental course. He had to construct instruments with the help of
local mechanics, whom he had to train. All this took him ten years. He
then undertook original investigation at his own expense. The Royal
Society became specially interested in his work and desired to give him
a Parliamentary grant for its continuation. It was after this that the
Government of Bengal came forward and offered him facilities for

colleges. He did not agree with the witnesses who had said that during
the first year or two years at college the instruction given was similar

only those students who had passed the intermediate examination.

persons in the higher educational department. The rate of salary, Rs.
200 rising to Rs. 1,500 per month, was suitable, subject to the proviso
that the man of great distinction, instead of beginning at the lowest
rate of pay, should start some where in the middle of the list, say, at
Rs. 400 or Rs. 500. He would make no reference in regard to Europeans or
Indians in that respect. In effect this no doubt amounted to making
Indians eligible for higher educational posts both by direct recruitment
