Abstract :
The arrangements for the Panama Pacific Convention which is to be held on September 16th to 18th, the week previous to the International Engineering Congress, are being actively developed at the hands of the general Convention Committee and of the Meetings and Papers Committee of the Institute. The technical sessions will be held in the morning and afternoon of September 16th and 17th, and the number of papers already in sight will probably necessitate holding parallel sessions on both of these days. A number of papers has already been accepted for this meeting and it is expected that a tentative program will be published in the July issue of the Proceedings.
