Abstract :
The question as to what can be done to improve still further the Institute publications was discussed at length during the recent meeting of the Publication Committee. The policy in effect since January, 1928, of publishing the TRANSACTIONS quarterly and printing papers in abridged form in the JOURNAL, with complete copies available upon request of those desiring more detailed information, has solved many of the physical problems of the committee. As a further development of the committee´s work it is now proposed to consider means of making the contents of the publications more valuable to the membership. It is felt, for example, that the JOURNAL would be more widely read and referred to if in addition to the present contents, special features were added in the hope that they would be of general interest to the entire membership.
