Report of the Memltersliip Committee 115 Two years ago, we were faced with the choice between remaining a small relatively unknown scientific society or becoming a large internationally known technical organization. We have chosen the latter conrse; bnt this choice carries great obligations. To those already in the society, no matter what their standing, it carries the necessity for re-adjustment, to those joining us, it gives the privilege of contributing, to the most progressive movement in the motion picture industry. We find there are a large number of the younger technical workers in the motion picture industry who feel that the entrance fee and dues are rather high, and we believe that a reduction of the entrance fee should be made as soon as it is shown that finances of the society will permit. The advisability of having the same dues of active and associate members should be considered. There appear no particular reasons for discriminating against active membership. Membership Committee H.
