The Interval meetings, which showed an increasing aliveness and more active participation by members and candidates of the Institute, focused on problems of psychoanalytic therapy. This year's Karen Horney Lecture was given by Professor John C. Witehorn. It was preceded by a dinner in his honor in the New York Academy of Medicine.
Emphasizing the significant role of the analytic relationship, the Association organized a Round Table Discussion on “The Doctor-Patient Relationship in Therapy” at the A.P.A. meeting in St. Louis. Chaired by Dr. Alexander R. Martin, the panel included Dr. Harold Kelman and Dr. Bella S. Van Bark of our Association. They were joined by Drs. Camilla A. Anderson, Judd Marmor, Norman Reider, Edith Weigert and Carl A. Whitaker. The Round Table attracted wide interest at the convention. Members of the Association gave lectures at state hospitals and to scientific societies. The Association continued to cooperate with the Karen Horney Foundation in the creation of a Karen Horney Clinic for Psychoanalytic Therapy.
