REPORT OF THE SECRETARY FOR THE YEAR 1963.

The final report of the 1963 meeting of the American Economic Association in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, indicated a total registration of 4,528, of which 2,651 were members of the American Economic Association. The net income from the meeting was $14,588.18. Of this amount, the American Economic Association received $7,477.77, based on the number who registered as members. Considerable progress was made in establishing the Association archives during 1963. All material, including correspondence and committee reports, dealing with major policy questions has been retained. It is planned to arrange the files in chronological order to facilitate the work of those interested in using the archives. As authorized by the Executive Committee at its March, 1903, meeting, the American Economic Association made a contract with the National Science Foundation to participate in the Foundation's National Register of Scientific and Technical Personnel. Data for the register will be obtained by sending out a questionnaire to members of the economics profession in mid-March 1964.
