As regards the equipment of universities to deal with the post-war situation, the universities themselves have been studying the various problems which will face them after the War. The Committee of Vice-Chancellors and Principals has asked the University Grants Committee to undertake a review of these problems in order to form a considered estimate of the need for increased assistance from the Exchequer. This request will require to be considered as a matter of urgency by the reconstituted Committee ; meantime, the universities are being asked to formulate their post-war needs so far as they can be estimated in present circumstances.
