Abstract
THE Pharmaceutical Society of Great Britain announces that five pharmaceutical manufacturers have each agreed to give scholarships to enable pharmaceutical graduates from China to take a two years course at the University of London. They would then return to China to help to train the 50,000 pharmacists required for General Chiang Kai-shek's ten-year plan for public health services. The donors of the scholarships are Messrs. Allen and Hanburys, Ltd., London; Messrs. Boots Pure Drug Co., Ltd., Nottingham; Messrs. Evans, Sons, Lescher and Webb, Ltd., Speke, Liverpool; The Wellcome Foundation, Ltd., London; and Messrs. May and Baker, Ltd., Dagenham. The suggestion for such scholarships came from Mr. A. H. Bentley, a pharmacist who escaped from the Japanese in Hong Kong. It is expected that the cost of each scholarship will be £1,400.
