Abstract
THE French National Union for Prevention of Depopulation and the French National Demographic Institute are organising a three-day conference on scientific research on ageing in the population of France, to be held in Paris during April 22-24. The programme of the conference is comprehensive : it includes sections of (1) demography, (2) economic and (3) social aspects of the problem, (4) physiology, psychology and pathology of old age, (5) organisation of work and occupation for old people, (6) rejuvenation of population. The conference will not be an international one ; all reports will be by French workers, and discussions will be in French. Although only a few foreign specialists in demography, social and economic sciences, and gerontology have been invited, specialists in these subjects can attend the conference without a special invitation and, provided they will speak in French, take part in discussions. The president of the Organisation Committee is M. F. Boverat, 217 rue de Faubourg St. Honorè, Paris, 8e.
