departments of major universities.
Among the members of the committee
are Hugh Hartshorn of Yale, Ernest
Chave of Chicago, and Harrison S.
Elliott of Columbia.
"Our budget is sorely curtailed,"
said Dr. Blakeman. "Therefore our
work is limited, but a recommenda-
tion has prevailed to coordinate this
section for the duration with the re-
search division of the Federal Council
of Churches and to join with the pro-
per organization in the federal gov-
ernment dealink with post-war re-
construction."

cial legislation.
