At that time the Festival of Britain was attracting an unusually large number of visitors from abroad, and in order to maintain liasion between the Society and the many film technicians amongst these visitors, the Committee was reconstituted on a more active basis. Under the new title of " International Relations Committee," it has extended its activities into many territories which had previously been neglected. The Society has members in practically every film producing country in the world. In order to maintain close touch with them, local representatives have been appointed in the major production centres through whom information of achievements in technique and equipment design will be disseminated. As well as being responsible for the exchange of information, when desired the representatives will contribute informed reports on local or regional conditions affecting film production. These will, from time to time, be published in the Journal. The nucleus of a world wide network of technicians willing to participate in Society affairs has been formed and the Committee is anxious to consider any suggestions as to how this organisation may be used more effectively to assist members in all parts of the world.
