invited all the District Officers of the territory to submit reports. Twenty- 
eight of these District reports have now been received by the Committee, 
while only five remain to be sent in. Thus, by the acquisition of what 
it is hoped will soon be material for a complete review of the human 
geography of a large African territory, the Committee is enabled to enter 
upon the second stage of its work, that of examining, collating and making 
available to a wider circle the information so generously compiled by the 
responsible officers on the ground. 
The Committee gratefully acknowledges the courtesy extended to it 
by the Government of Northern Rhodesia, and hopes to make the fullest 
use of the results thus acquired as soon as possible, when it will make the 
proper acknowledgment to the individual contributors. 
FURTHER OUTLOOK. 
The Committee having received certain reports, as above mentioned, 
from other East African territories, hopes that the latter Colonies will in 
the near future yield more comprehensive material. It seems likely that 
this result may be hastened by the present visit to East Africa of Mr. S.J. K. 
Baker, a former member of the Committee. 
It is of course recognised that while the data now accumulating have 
their chief value as contributions to knowledge of specific geographical 
relationships, they will also possess considerable value to anthropological 
and ethnological studies. The Committee therefore intends to establish 
and maintain close touch with bodies which for any reason may be interested 
in the material accumulated, such as the Royal Anthropological Institute, 
the Royal Institute of International Affairs, and the International Institute 
of African Languages and Cultures. 
In short, it will be seen that the real work of the Committee lies before it. 
REAPPOINTMENT AND EXPENSES. 
The Committee therefore asks to be reappointed, with the addition of 
the names of Mr. S. J. K. Baker, Dr. A. Geddes, and Mr. R. A. Pelham. 
It asks for a grant of £5 to cover secretarial expenses in 1933-34, and it 
intimates that any profits accruing from sale of the pamphlet will be handed 
to the General Treasurer of the Association.
