favor of a compulsory licensing or "working clause" along quite different lines from the McFarlane Bill, and it might be possible t o substitute a bill such as we supported at t h a t time just as our old bill was substituted by Senator Johnson, then chairman of t h e Patent Committee, for t h e original Stanley Bill. A copy of this revised Stanley BUI and a memorandum by Mr. Potter pointing o u t t h e defects in t h e McFarlane Bill are on file in the Secretary's office. Acting on instructions from t h e Board of Directors, Charles L. Parsons appeared before the Patent Committee of the House and spoke most forcefully and effectively in opposition to II. R. 9259. There is also on file in t h e Secretary's office a digest of the bills which have been introduced in Congress since our last report of March 26, 1937, which was kindly prepared by Mr. Potter's office. Your committee recommends t h a t : 1. We favor t h e passage of t h e McAdoo Bill providing for a single court of patent appeals; 2. We oppose t h e McFarlane Bill for the compulsory licensing of patents. H E N R Y HOWARD,
Chairman
T h e committee's first recommendation was held for further study; t h e second recommendation was adopted unanimously to read as follows: " W e oppose the McFarlane Bill for t h e compulsory licensing of patents and equivalent bills."

Preparation a n d Publication of a List o f R i n g S y s t e m s U s e d i n Organic Chemistry (Joint -with t h e N a t i o n a l Research Council) HE manuscript which, including new forms reported in 1937, will contain approximately 4000 known ring systems, is over 9 0 per cent completed, except for considerable final editing. I t h a s beenv offered t o t h e Board of Editors of tne A. C. S. Monograph Series and is under consideration by them. T h e Reinhold Publishing Corp. has examined the manuscript and obtained estimates, and has expressed its willingness to publish the work, either a s a monograph or independently. Lithoprinting would probably be used. Estimates of the eventual market vary between 1000 a n d 3000 copies. I n its capacity as t h e American Committee on Organic Nomenclature of the International Union of Chemistry, this committee has been unusually active in preparation for t h e meeting of t h e Union in M a y . Topics discussed have been: numbering and naming of ring systems, naming of deuterium compounds, naming of radicals, and naming of cyclic compounds containing functions a n d side chains. T h e rules adopted in Lucerne in 1936 have been published in Science, 87, 215-16 (1938). I n view of t h e fact that Marston T. Bogert will serve a t Rome a s a substitute for the chairman in t h e meetings of the International Committee, t h e chairman recommends that D r . Bogert be made an active member of t h e American Committee (Committee on t h e Preparation and Publication of a List of Ring Systems Used in Organic Chemistry) and that E . E. Reid be transferred from active membership to t h e consulting list. Both gentlemen have agreed t o this arrangement, which h a s also been confirmed by the National Research Council.

Standardization o f Biological Stains HERE was no meeting of t h e Executive T Committee of the commission during 1937, a n d there was no addition t o
the committee. One member, John W . Churchman, who had been inactive b e cause of illness for four years, died on July 13, 1937. A t t h e time he became incapacitated he was professor of experimental therapeutics a t Cornell Medical School and acted as t h e representative of t h e American Medical Association on the commission. E. V. Cowdry of S t . Louis has been appointed by A. M . A. as its representative to replace Dr. Churchman. Louis Gershenfeld of t h e Philadelphia College of Pharmacy* and Science has been appointed b y t h e American Pharmaceutical Association a s its representative. T h e commission also suffered a serious loss in the passing of F . P . Garvan, president of t h e Chemical Foundation, who died on November 7, 1937. H e not only was responsible for t h e financial backing the Chemical Foundation has given, b u t at t h e outset was one of the main sources of inspiration in organizing the work. T h e publication of t h e commission's journal, Stain Technology, was originally t h e idea of Mr. Garvan. Stain Technology, which is published quarterly, is now being sent t o about 660 paid subscribers—almost 200 more than in 1936. T h a n k s to this increase in t h e subscription list, an increase in advertising, a n d t h e large sale of t h e third edition of t h e book "Biological Stains," the publication profits for t h e two years exceeded those of any other two years since t h e work began.

Supervision o f Chemical Engineering Catalog HE annual meeting of t h e Committee T on Supervision of t h e Chemical Engineering Catalog was held on April 7. According t o a report submitted b y t h e publishers, t h e 1937 edition, published in September, represented a substantial gain over t h e 1936 edition, not only in t h e total number of firms represented b u t also in t h e number of pages of catalog information furnished b y them. I t is particularly pleasing to note t h a t t h e 1937 catalog represented definite progress towards t h e ideal of a reference catalog. After t h e presentation of t h e report there followed a n extended discussion of ways and means of making t h e catalog more useful. E. K. BOLTON, A.C.S.

The
increasing
a m o u n t of correspondence which reaches t h e chairman's desk is evidence of t h e useful function of this committee. L o i s W . WOODFORD, Chairman T h e above reports, with t h e exceptions noted, were accepted a n d approved. T h e following resolution was passed a t t h e Rochester meeting, September 8, 1937:
Resolved, that the Council instruct the President of the SOCIETY to appoint a standing committee composed of individuals selected from various local sections geographically near state capitals. Each member of this committee shall report to the Business Manager the introduction and progress of all bills affecting t h e professional status of chemists and chemical engineers introduced in the legislature of his state as such events occur. Said member, in order to secure recompense therefor, should make prior arrangements with the Business Manager covering any limited expense involved. In view o f t h e fact t h a t this group is really n o t a committee b u t a group of members w h o a r e voluntarily keeping t h e Committee for Improving t h e Professional Standing of t h e Chemist informed through t h e Business Manager so t h a t t h e y m a y take proper action when necessary, a n d t h e further fact t h a t some of these individuals expect t o be called together for committee action, which is manifestly impossible, T h o m a s Midgley, J r . , chairman of t h e committee, moved t h a t t h e resolution b e changed s o t h a t it reads as follows: Resolved, that the Council instruct t h e President of the SOCIETY to select individuals from various local sections geographically near state capitals to keep the Committee for Improving the Professional Standing of the Chemist informed as to the introduction and progress of all bills affecting the professional status of chemists and chemical engineers introduced into t h e legislature of that state, o r states, a s such events occur. Each member of this group shall report to the committee through the Secretary and Business Manager. Any member of this group in order to secure recompense therefor should make prior arrangements with t h e Business Manager covering any limited expense involved. This resolution was passed unanimously. Under t h i s suggestion t h e resolution remains essentially unchanged except t h a t t h e group is no longer called a committee a n d h a s no d u t i e s except t o keep t h e C o m m i t t e e for Improving t h e Professional Standing of t h e Chemist informed covering legislation t h a t m a y seem detrimental t o t h e chemist's welfare, leaving all action o n such information t o t h e committee i t self.

AWARD. T h e committee considered t h e names of some 20 women suggested as nominees for t h e G a r v a n Medal Award, a n d unanimously agreed t o submit two names t o t h e Committee on Award. One of these, Professor Carr, was selected to receive t h e award for the year 1937. T h e committee concurred in t h e decision to postpone t h e award of t h e medal until the meeting in April, 1938, since Miss C a r r would be unable to b e present a t t h e September, 1937, meeting because of her projected t r i p t o Australia.

The
arrangement of t h e program for t h e women chemists a t the general meeting was placed in t h e h a n d s of t h e local representatives, Frances W . Brown a t Chapel Hill, a n d Ethel L. French a t Rochester. I n each case t h e formal feature of t h e entert a i n m e n t was a dinner followed b y a brief program. T h e large attendance a t these functions indicates their usefulness in promoting t h e interests of t h e women chemists. T h e committee extends its t h a n k s t o t h e local representatives through whose efforts a satisfactory planning for t h e comfort a n d pleasure of women chemists attending t h e meetings h a s been evolved. CORRESPONDENCE.
The
increasing
a m o u n t of correspondence which reaches t h e chairman's desk is evidence of t h e useful function of this committee. L o i s W . WOODFORD, Chairman T h e above reports, with t h e exceptions noted, were accepted a n d approved. T h e following resolution was passed a t t h e Rochester meeting, September 8, 1937:
Resolved, that the Council instruct the President of the SOCIETY to appoint a standing committee composed of individuals selected from various local sections geographically near state capitals. Each member of this committee shall report to the Business Manager the introduction and progress of all bills affecting t h e professional status of chemists and chemical engineers introduced in the legislature of his state as such events occur. Said member, in order to secure recompense therefor, should make prior arrangements with the Business Manager covering any limited expense involved. In view o f t h e fact t h a t this group is really n o t a committee b u t a group of members w h o a r e voluntarily keeping t h e Committee for Improving t h e Professional Standing of t h e Chemist informed through t h e Business Manager so t h a t t h e y m a y take proper action when necessary, a n d t h e further fact t h a t some of these individuals expect t o be called together for committee action, which is manifestly impossible, T h o m a s Midgley, J r . , chairman of t h e committee, moved t h a t t h e resolution b e changed s o t h a t it reads as follows: Resolved, that the Council instruct t h e President of the SOCIETY to select individuals from various local sections geographically near state capitals to keep the Committee for Improving the Professional Standing of the Chemist informed as to the introduction and progress of all bills affecting the professional status of chemists and chemical engineers introduced into t h e legislature of that state, o r states, a s such events occur. Each member of this group shall report to the committee through the Secretary and Business Manager. Any member of this group in order to secure recompense therefor should make prior arrangements with t h e Business Manager covering any limited expense involved. This resolution was passed unanimously. Under t h i s suggestion t h e resolution remains essentially unchanged except t h a t t h e group is no longer called a committee a n d h a s no d u t i e s except t o keep t h e C o m m i t t e e for Improving t h e Professional Standing of t h e Chemist informed covering legislation t h a t m a y seem detrimental t o t h e chemist's welfare, leaving all action o n such information t o t h e committee i t self.

Unless otherwise specified, the papers shall be sampled and tested according to the standard methods of the Technical Association of the Pulp and Paper Industry. These are designated a s follows: sampling, T400m36; bursting strength, T403m-36; basis weight, T410m-36; folding endurance, T4?3m-36; opacity. T425m-35; acidity (pH), T435m-34; fiber composition, T401m-30; thickness, T411m-36. (Copies can be secured from the association a t 122 East 42nd St., N e w York, N . Y., for 2 5 cents each.) T h e papers shall be conditioned and tested in an atmosphere of 50 per cent relative humidity and 7 0 ° F . The oil penetration is determined b y the oil drop method, which measures the time in seconds a t which a drop of c. p. castor oil produces a uniform translucent spot through t h e test specimen. T h e oil penetration reported is the average of not less than 10 tests. T h e vacuum t y p e instrument is used for testing smoothness. T b e specimen under test i s placed with the sides under investigation in contact with a polished glass ring of area, 10 s q . cm. I t is covered with a soft rubber plate, and is subjected t o a pressure of 1 kg. per sq. cm. The smoothness number or finish i s the time interval measured in seconds which is required b y 10 cc. of air to be sucked through between t h e lower plate and the paper surface a t a vacuum of 0.5 atmosphere. T h e smoothness reported is the average of not less than 10 tests. T h e w a x test i s made b y pressing the melted end of a stick of N o . 4 Dennison wax against t h e coating, allowing the wax to harden, then pulling t h e wax free from the paper with a quick pull made a t right angle to t h e paper. T h e paper coating i s considered satisfactory when t h e surface of the coating is not disturbed in all 10 tests.
