Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Review of Applied Entomology in the British Empire
Entomological investigations are also conducted at certain of the universities by means of grants from a Government Development Commission Fund. It would appear to be the intention to foster the investigation of insect pests in recog nised university departments rather than in a department of the government, a plan which has advantages and disadvant ages which I will not discuss here. As a result there is a Depart ment of Agricultural Entomology at the Uni' raity of Man chester under Dr. A. D. Imms, and forest insects are studied at the University of Oxford. Prof. Maxwell Lefroy of the Imperial College of Science and Technology, London, has also been conducting investigations in applied entomology.
