October 21 regarding a Geological Survey of the Colony of Hongkong would it be antisfactory if this were undertaken
The by the staff of the University of British Columbia. members have all had extended field experience with the Geological Survey of Canada, and are in fret the heat men treined by the Survey namely, Dr. A. J. Schofield, Mr. M. Y. Williams, and Dr. W. 1. Ugor, It would be impossible for any one of us to spend two or three sousons in the field, ar the fiold sengon coincides with the University session, but it might be possible, if this were satisfactory, for gach to spend • sonson on the work until completad. Ona great advantage in this from the standpoint of the geologic- al work would be that ench has specialized in a different line, Schofield in Physical and Structural Geology, Williams in Palaeontology and Stratigraphical, Uglow in Mineralogy and Petrography, while my work has been larzel y regional, reconnaissance, and economic. There is an advantage in having the field viewed, and the province studied, by several men with different view points, and as we are all together here, there would be no difficulty in corre) at ing and unifying the work. The problems would interest 118 as we are actually special izing dn Pacific problema, both on
