In  1 91 8  the  Board  of  Trustees  authorized  the  publication  of  a 
supplement  to  include  some  new  remedies  and  some  of  the  changes 
made  advisable  by  the  continuance  of  the  war  and  the  shortage  of 
supplies.  The  sudden  end  of  the  war  eliminated  the  immediate 
necessity  for  a  supplement,  and  it  being  near  the  end  of  the  revision 
period,  the  Board  of  Trustees  withdrew  the  authorization  which 
they  had  previously  made  for  its  publication. 
The  Spanish  Translation  which  had  been  authorized  by  the  Con- 
vention was  placed  in  the  hands  of  the  printers  during  191 8  and  in 
December,  1919,  was  placed  on  sale  through  the  same  agency  which 
had  handled  the  previous  Spanish  Edition,  they  being  the  lowest 
bidders  for  the  privilege.  The  publication  of  the  Spanish  Edition 
can  never  be  considered  financially  advantageous  to  the  Conven- 
tion, but  it  should  be  continued  as  a  patriotic  duty  and  in  recogni- 
tion of  the  increasing  use  of  the  book  in  the  Spanish  speaking  Amer- 
ican countries.
