* As a result of a number of requests from official agencies for information on the question of congressional reapportionment, former President Pollock authorized the Executive Director of the Washington office to appoint a special committee to prepare recommendations on this subject. On December 2 a committee, consisting of Messrs. Zechariah Chafee, Bertram M. Gross, John W. Lederle, Edward H. Litchfield, James K. Pollock, Robert S. Rankin, Laurence F. Schmeckebier and Walter F. Willcox, met in Washington under the Chairmanship of Professor Arthur N. Holcombe. The Committee's unanimous report, drafted by Professors Chafee and Holcombe, was made available to the White House, to members of Congress and to other official agencies which solicited it.
