Abstract :
The committee appointed by President Dunn in March to collect funds for the Joubert memorial recently held a meeting for the purpose of formulating a plan for carrying on its work. The chairman of the committee, Mr. C. O. Mailloux, during his recent visit to Paris attended a meeting of the French Committee, which has been formed for the same purpose, and he also conferred while in London with the President of the Institution of Electrical Engineers, who has promised to take up the matter and appoint a similar committee. Similar committees will also be formed in Italy, Belgium and other countries. The American Committee will be considerably enlarged, and its appeal to members for subscriptions will be issued simultaneously with similar appeals in the other countries.
