The Corporation has authorized the establishment of a Bureau of Research in Government, which is to be maintained by a gift of $2500 a year for ten years offered by F. G. Thomson '97 and C. Thomson '99, both of Philadelphia, Pa. Professor W. B. Munro is to direct the work of this Bureau, and it is expected that it will be in operation at the beginning of the next College year.
The Bureau will arrange to bring together documentary data relating to municipal government, including charters, reports, and similar material from all the more important cities of Europe and America. This material will be available for use by students in the various courses devoted to the study of municipal government.

Dr. A. N. Holcombe, of the Department of Government is to be in charge of this collection.
