THE speech of Lord Haldane in the House of Lords on July 12, on the training of the nation and the necessity of preparing for the future, is a timely contribution to the momentous discussion of the question of the educational position of Great Britain, and especially of that portion of it identified with England. Our only regret is that while Lord Haldane was a member of the Government he did not see that decided steps were taken to remedy the defects to which he refers, and thus give us the strength needed to compete successfully in the rivalry of nations. When he was president of the British Science Guild he took an active part in asserting the claims of science and scientific education to fuller recognition by the State, and we looked naturally to the realisation of these aims when he was in office. Statesmen have yet to learn that it is their duty to lead the people, instead of waiting for a mandate from them. If industrialists have failed to take the fullest advantage of scientific knowledge and research, the omission is due largely to the indifferent attitude shown by the Government until recently towards these factors of modern progress.
