On the Walter Reed Memorial. 



At a meeting of the association held in Wash- 

 ington, a committee was appointed, of which I was 

 made chairman, to take such measure as might 

 be found wise for securing a permanent memorial 

 of Major Walter Reed, U. S. A., in recognition of 

 his important services to humanity. Acting 

 under this authority, it was at length found ex- 

 pedient, after several preliminary meetings, to 

 form an incorporation in the city of Washington 

 to hold such funds as might be contributed. This 

 incorporation is now endeavoring to raise the sum 

 of $25,000, of which the income may be paid to 

 Mrs. Reed and the principal may be devoted to a 

 permanent memorial of Dr. Reed. More than 

 .$13,000 has been subscribed already, a large part 

 of this amount coming from the medical profes- 

 sion. This is all in addition to the action of Con- 

 gress, which has given, on the representations of 

 your commiiuee, an unusual pension to Mrs. Reed. 



The effort is now making to secure the additional 

 sum of $12,000, and the cooperation of all mem- 

 bers of the American Association for the Advance- 

 ment of Science is urgently desired. 



Yours respectfully, 



Daniel E. Gilman, 



Chairman. 



On the Relations of the Association to the Journal 

 ' Science.' 



We beg to report that the arrangement by which 

 Science publishes the official notices and proceed- 

 ings of the association and is sent free of charge 

 to the members in regular standing on payment 

 of two dollars for each appears to give satisfac- 

 tion. We recommend that the contract with The 

 Macmillan Company be renewed for the year 1905.
