WHITEFORD ROSEMARY WITTSTADT KLAUS WUST Editorial Policy: The Society for the History of the Germans in Maryland is dedicated to the preservation and dissemination of materials pertaining to the history of the Germans in North America, particularly the state of Maryland and the mid-Atlantic region. The Report provides a forum for the discussion of scholarly issues which are central to the Society's purpose and invites articles which deal with any aspect of the history and culture of the German element in North America, from materials which support genealogical research (the Society itself does not under- take such research) to studies which examine the sociological, historical, or literary aspects of the German-American experience. Articles which focus on the Germans in Maryland are especially welcome. Manuscripts are accepted at any time and should be directed to the editor at the address listed below. All submissions should be made in triplicate and should contain no information which identifies the author or would otherwise prevent an anonymous review of the manuscript by members of the editorial board. Authors should include a single separate sheet identifying themselves and providing other relevant information. All submissions will be read by at least two members of the editorial board. Authors will normally receive notice of the outcome of the review process within six weeks of receipt. Accepted articles will be published in the next issue, and authors can expect to see their work in print within eighteen months of the original submission. Manuscripts should be in English and follow the form suggested by the Modern Language Association. Non-English quotations should be accompanied by an English translation. Manuscripts should be directed to: Randall Donaldson, Editor The Report Modern Languages and Literatures Loyola College in Maryland Baltimore, MD 21210-2699 -4- MEMBERS AND OFFICERS OF THE SOCIETY FOR THE HISTORY OF THE GERMANS IN MARYLAND 1990-1992 CHARLES T.
