Abstract
SOME time ago I had the privilege of listening to addresses by the heads of two prominent English colleges on the provisions for the English Ph.D. Quite frankly it was stated that this degree is intended to satisfy students from the Dominions and the United States. It is manifestly unfair to give an American, for example, as a result of his study a degree, like M.A., which is of little or no value in his own land.
