Abstract
THE recent announcement in the Times of Nov. 8, that the Viceroy, accompanied by Lady Irwin,had opened at Dehra Dun the new Government Forest Research Institute, the largest in the British Empire, if not in the world, is of considerable interest. Early in 1926 it was announced that the Finance Committee of the Legislative Assembly had sanctioned a sum of £833,000 to be spent on the Research Institute. This announcement was discussed in NATURE (Feb. 6, 1926, p. 204). The new buildings just opened by the Viceroy are stated to have cost the sum of £850,000.
