Abstract :
All of the activities of the Institute are sponsored by and accomplished through the voluntary work of the many Institute Committees. The success of the recent Fourth Annual Convention in Washington is due to the splendid work of the various committees under the chairmanship of Dr. C.B. Jolliffe of the Bureau of Standards. Associated with Dr. Jolliffe as chairmen of the subcommittees were: Thomas McL. Dayis, registration and arrangements; Mrs. L.W. Austin, ladies´ committee; S.S. Kirby, trips; F.P. Guthrie, dinner and entertainment; A.E. Kennelly, fellowship; W.G.H. Finch, publicity.
