COMMITTEE A — FEBR.-MARCH 1906 { 16) 
of principle the Bureau has always been of opinion that this would be by far the 
most regular and most practical method. It is a different thing, however, at pre- 
sent, as now the publication of arrears of material extending over more than three 
years had to be undertaken: it would not be an easy matter by any means to 
find at once the funds to undertake such a publication. If we take in considera- 
tion moreover: 
a. that far more than half of the summaries are already published or will be 
published independently of the Bureau; 
b. that financially it would be a pity to spend considerable funds on printing - 
a second time what has already been published; and 
c. that there can be no question of the Bureau publishing these summaries for 
some countries and not for all, 
the Bureau must consider it to be most practical, urgently to request those 
countries which have not yet decided to publish the material mentioned to do so 
at their earliest convenience. 
_ This report gave rise to no further discussion.
