The Printing Establishment of the Institute. 



One method of reducing the cost of printing, and at the 

 same time enabling it to be done more conveniently and 

 rapidly, was to instal a printing establishment in the building. 

 Being able to offer free accommodation and to guarantee a 

 considerable amount of work, we were in a position to obtain 

 a diminution in the charges. The contract that we have 

 made with Mr. Armand di Fabio ensures a reasonable 

 decrease in expenses and binds us to nothing. If, in our 

 opinion, the contractor does not serve the Institute in a satis- 

 factory manner, we can require him to vacate the building 

 on giving him three months' notice. 



The printing establishment is not yet completely installed, 

 but it is hoped that the contract will prove a good business 

 undertaking both for the contractor and also for the Institute. 



Gentlemen, I have the honour, in concluding my Report, 

 to beg of you to convey to your Governments the thanks of 

 the Permanent Committee for the sympathy which they have 

 exhibited towards the Institute in sending to our Assembly 

 such eminent men as yourselves. The Institute has, as I 

 have said, undertaken in the course of the period under review 

 great and multifarious labours. We hope to be able to obtain 

 your approval and that of your respective Governments.
