 It is the Society, for instance, which publishes this Journal, which will push matters of importance to welding and which will open out new fields for its use.It holds regular meetings to discuss matters relating to welding, to act upon the recommendation of the Bureau and to initiate further activities.This division of the work, while it has created some confusion on account of the similarity of the names, is a logical one, and will be found effective in operating as was clearly indicated by the experience with the old Welding Committee."
