During the summer months the Society held no regular meetings. The first meeting, which was held on October 30, was given over almost entirely to the recent Lucerne Congress. Dr. Oberndorf presented a report on present activities and future plans of the Verlag. Dr. Lewin reported on actions of the Congress on matters peculiarly American, and on the proceedings of the Congress and of the plenary session of the Training Commission in general. To obtain some of the atmosphere of the Congress for those who had been unable to attend, Doctors Lewin and Feigenbaum were asked to repeat papers which they had read at Lucerne. Dr. Lewin's paper was entitled 'The Meaning of the Fear in Claustrophobia', and Dr. Feigenbaum's 'Morbid Shame: a Clinical Contribution to the Castration Complex in Women'. A very interesting meeting was brought to a close by Dr. Radó with a short summary of his impressions of the scientific sessions of the Congress.
At the regular meeting of the Society on November 27, Dr. Smiley Blanton gave a paper on 'An Analysis of the Symptom of Stuttering', and Dr. Fritz Wittels 'A Short Communication on the Signature of a Kidnapper'.
At the meeting of the Society held on December 18, officers for the coming year were nominated, to be voted on at the January meeting, The Scientific Session consisted of a paper by Dr. Margaret A. Ribble: 'Aggression and Regression in a Child with Petit Mal'.
During the half year covered by the report, there have been no additions to or subtractions from the membership.
