THE recently published report of the Executive Council of the Universities Bureau of the British Empire announces preliminary steps towards bringing about an informal conference between some of the heads of universities in the United States of America and those of universities in the British Empire. In the course of a trans-Atlantic tour undertaken last spring, primarily with the object of cultivating helpful relations with the Canadian universities, tho secretary of the Bureau got into touch with the presidents of Harvard and Yale, the president of the Carnegie Corporation of New York and tho director of the Institute of International Education, and discussed with them the possibility of a visit to England of some of the heads of universities in the United States in 1941, when the sixth quinquennial congress of the Universities of the British Empire will be held in Manchester.
