Congress. The date for the 17th Congress of the International Psycho-Analytical Association, to be held in Amsterdam (Holland) in 1951 has now been fixed for August 7 to 10. There will be an Evening Reception arranged by the Dutch Psycho-Analytical Society on August 6. Dr. Leo H. Bartemeier, President of the International Psycho-Analytical Association, has appointed an American Committee to arrange the programme. It consists of Dr. Phyllis Greenacre (New York) as Chairman, Dr. Ernst Kris (New York) as Co-Chairman, and of the following members: Drs. Lionel Blitzten (Chicago), Ives Hendrick (Boston), Maurice Katan (Cleveland), Karl Menninger (Topeka), Norman Reider (San Francisco), and Robert Waelder (Philadelphia) In addition the Dutch Psycho-Analytical Association has appointed its members of the Training Committee to augment the American Committee: Drs. van der Waals, le Coultre, P. J. van der Leeuw, Lampl-de-Groot, and Feith.
The programme, as at present envisaged, will provide opportunities for reading papers as well as for symposia. Papers offered by individual members will be read in the afternoon sessions. These papers will, as far as possible, be grouped according to topics. Each speaker will have 20–30 minutes at his disposal. The title and an abstract of the paper should be sent to the Chairman of the Programme Committee by March 15 (Dr. Phyllis Greenacre, 970 Park Avenue, New York City 28). The morning sessions will be devoted to symposia or panel discussions with selected contributors and opening discussants.
The business meeting will be held one morning, and the afternoon of that day will be reserved for recreational activities.
The organization of the technical side of the Congress has been entrusted to the Dutch Society who very soon will inform the members of the International Psycho-Analytical Association about reservations, etc.
