Abstract
- The article presents information related to sociology. It states that the second International Congress is to be held in Paris, France, in 1950. Although the exact date has not been set, the Congress will follow the sessions of the International Psychiatric Congress. Professor H. Donnedieu de Vabres is Chairman of the Committee on Organization. The Congress will be particularly concerned with international consideration of research, with the problem of a distinctive methodology for criminology and with the proposal of establishment of an International Center of Criminology. Sociologist H. Donnedieu de Vabres is Chairman of the Committee on Organization. It also states that financial resources and leadership of Carnegie Corp. of New York, one of the largest foundations in the U.S., are being increasingly devoted to critical problems of human relations, world affairs and the revitalization of democratic values. Charles Dollard, president of the corporation, states in the Corporation's thirty-seventh annual report, that reflecting the corporation's growing concern with these problems, grants amounting to $3,421,000 were made in fields of social science and world affairs during the fiscal year, which ended on September 30, 1948.
