PROGRAM OF THE PHARMACY SECTION OF THE AMERICAN ASSOCIATION FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF SCIENCE Although a year has passed since the Elixir of Sulfanilamide incident with its traaic consecxuences. so far as we are aware there has been no attempt t o get tbgethk all that is known about the glycols, despite the fact t h a t perhaps no chemicals have been more widely discussed during this period than have certain memb e n of this relativelv simole familv of camoounds. I t has, therefore, kcu&ed to thbse resp&sible for the program of the Pharmacy Section of the American Association for the Advancement of Science meeting t o be held in Richmond during Christmas week, that a symposium on the glycols might be arranged that should prove highly informative and attract widespread interest. I t is with genuine satisfaction that we are able to announce that plans have now hcrn romplcrcd for such a qmpusiutn and. if c m i r d lhrouglt a.; providvcl for, will be nlntosr definitive ro far as knurlrdgr of rhe btttkr known glycols is ronrernrd. The, subject will bc discused under low general heads, and the men who have accepted ~ s s i m m e n t slor the symposium are acknowledgcd lradws in thcir rcspecrivr fidd.. 1)r. Frank C
