Its existence was indicative of a lacuna, one which academics would not fill. It took a group of law students, balancing their studies and other commitments, to organise such a publication.

Postwar reconstruction plans, proposed changes, indicative of that health spirit which characterizes nations conscious of their role in the great drama of international upheaval - all point out to the fact that we who have lived through some of the worst pages of the last war, feel quite prepared to shoulder the task that we who have lived through some of the worst pages of the last war, feel quite prepared to shoulder the task of participating in the general re-birth and desire for the New. This intellectual epidemic has left no field unexplored.

His "Storia della Legislazione in Malta" and his "Fallimento nel Diritto Maltese" form part of the curriculum of the legal studies carried out in our University. I need, therefore, make no introduction; his works have ensured, maybe, perennial fame. But can we say that we know him? His legal works and his elaborate judgments stand forth in perpetual testimony of his acumen and the heights of legal doctrine to which he did attain. But to know the man, we have to review the "ups and downs" of his life, the unostentatious work which he silently and perhaps unremuneratively performed his efforts to tread the path of virtue by giving counsel and assistance to the needful and in general, all the elements which reflect on the inward life, on the Spirit - for the Spirit makes the man.

There is much in common also in the problems of Social Medicine. The University has been, and is bound to remain. The intellectual leader of the country; with the restitution of Self Government its importance will increase ; many of our law givers will come out of it. It is therefore proper that students of law, as possible legislators of the future, should be acquainted with the problems of health with reference to social life.
