Our Monthly Journal

Loyd A. Jones

At various times during the past six or eight years it has been suggested that the Society of Motion Picture Engineers should publish a monthly journal in lieu of its semi-annual or quarterly Transactions. The Board of Governors has discussed this proposal from time to time but not until recently has it seemed wise to commit the Society to an undertaking involving the necessarily increased financial burden. Within the last year or so, however, the membership has increased to such an extent that the Society's income is appreciably enhanced. About a year ago, President Porter appointed a committee to consider the desirability and feasibility of the Society undertaking the publication of a monthly journal. The committee was instructed to report its findings to the Board of Governors in order that that body might take some definite action on this subject. The personnel of the committee appointed was as follows: Messrs. P. M. Abbott, J. W. Coffman, W. B. Cook, W. C. Hubbard, P. A. McGuire, H. T. Cowling, and L. A. Jones, Chairman.
