Joint Meeting of the Journal Management Committee and Editorial Board at the Annual Meeting

ABSTRACT

The Journal Management Committee met in joint session with the Editorial Board on June 16, 1959. The agenda for discussion had been presented to all members of these groups by letter on May 25, and the lively discussion in the meeting indicated that each member had given some thought to the problems outlined.

Ideas for review papers were solicited and the members provided enough working ideas to insure the continuous production of this feature in the JOURNAL. Additional areas for review papers were suggested and the members of the group were requested to suggest authors who could be invited to prepare the reviews.

The question was raised, Should we accept technical notes of research where negative results were obtained? The discussion which followed resulted in agreement that such contributions should be judged on the basis of the scientific value of the report. The project design and methods developed might well be worthy of publication as a scientific contribution.
