FOREWORD This INDEX is the third to be issued since the Society began its publication venture in 1916. The first INDEX covers the 15-year period from July 1916 to June 1930. Copies are still available although in limited quantity and may be purchased from the Society by members and educational institutions. This early INDEX is unique in that it contains not only the customary Subject and Author listings, but in addition has a synopsis of each article that appeared in the thirty-eight copies of the TRANSACTIONS from 1916 to 1929 and in the first six issues of the JOURNAL for 1930. The second INDEX covers JOURNAL articles for the 6-year period from January 1930 to December 1935, and was issued in 1936. A limited number of copies of this issue are also available for purchase by members, schools or colleges. The current INDEX includes the customary Subject and Author listings for the 10-year period from January 1936 to December 1945, and in addition, lists back issues of the JOURNAL that may be purchased by anyone interested. American Standards on Motion Pictures are referred to as well in a separate section at the back of the INDEX.
