Abstract :
THE INSTITUTE´S winter convention held in New York, N. Y., January 25–29, 1932, brought forth an official registration of 1,429 persons. This attendance was highly gratifying and definitely refuted the occasional predictions that attendance would be small. Of even more importance perhaps is the fact that interest exhibited in the technical sessions and other features of the convention was in line with the attendance. All in all the convention may be said to have been very successful.
