Report of the Section on Criminology.

The chairman of the Section on Criminology for 1964 agreed to one Section meeting and one Association meeting, as meeting the minimal requirements for presentation of papers in criminology-bearing in mind that the Section will have one business meeting and one executive meeting. The chairman and other officers of the Section on Criminology have become impressed with the lack of room in regular sociological journals to accommodate the large number of papers and monographs which are being produced by criminological research. A new journal has entered the field, "The Journal of Research in Crime and Delinquency," which will be published twice a year by the National Committee on Crime and Delinquency and the Center for Youth and Community Studies. Three of the Section members are on the editorial board of this new journal. Manuscripts should be sent to the executive editor, National Council on Crime and Delinquency. There was some consideration, at the last business meeting of the Section, directed toward the possibility of the Section on Criminology being empowered by the Council of the Association to request to become a "joint sponsor" of the new journal.
