were approved subject to minor corrections.

DR. DUNHAM reviewed briefly the New York University proposal
relative to the New York Health and Safety Laboratory and also
discussed the proposed DBM reorganization. He also mentioned the

suggestion that has been made for the change in the name of the
DBM but it was agreed that at present there appears to be no
satisfactory title which would be descriptive and still be brief
enough to be useful.
In response to a question raised by DR. FAILLA
about the proposal that the ACBM be made a statutory Committee,
DR. DUNHAM stated that there had been some objection to this on
the part of the GAC.
