General Ramarks. The unexpectedly large number of contributions to the Conference and the fact that the majority of au­ thors, particularly of some of the most valuable papers, have partially disregarded one or the other of the conditions for contributions to the Conference, have made the work of the Editorial Board very difficult. Sinoe the majority of papers arrived after April 15th, and this volume had to be ready by the middle of May (to make it possible for partici­ pating members from Europe to reoeive their oopies before their departure), the resouroes of the Editorial Board and of its clerical staff have been taxed to the limit in preparing the volume for publication. The short time available made planograph reproduction the only possible method to use. The reader's indulgence is requested for mistakes that may have ocourred. The Secretary .of the Conference will greatly appreciate being informed of neoessary corrections. All corrections will be included in the last volume of the Proceedings. It was soon realized that it would he physically impossible to publish in so short a time all papers submitted. Therefore, it was deoided to print about one third of the contributions in a second volume, whioh is to be ready just prior to the Conference. Volume II will oontain the entire Seotion "A", whioh comprises all "Reports from Soil Meohaniss Laboratories on Testing Apparatus, Technique of Testing and Investigations in Progress". In addition. Volume II will include contributions which were delayed in their arrival, and papers which so grossly oonflioted with the condition» in regard to length or language requirements that it was necessary to request the authors to submit them in a revised form. Volume III, containing the Discussions and additional contributions of speoial merit, will not be printed before August of this year« The order in which the papers are printed essentially coincides with the order of arrival. In some instances it was chosen for technical reasons to facilitate and speed up the preparation of this volume. Papers whioh represent con­ tributions to more than one section, if submitted as one unit* are classified in that section to whioh the oontributian seemed to add most. The last section oontains chiefly papers which, for technical reasons, were not ready for printing at the time the respective sections were closed. In the editing of the papers only important mistakes in syntax or the use of words, whioh might lead to misunderstandings, were corrected. Discussions» This volume will reach most of the Members sufficiently in advance of the Conference to permit study of the contributions and preparation of discussions. It is particularly desirable that Members, (and also non-members)who have not contributed papers to the Conference and who have had extensive experience in one or the other of the subjeots covered by the Conference, participate in the discussions, either in oral or written form. Written disoussions must reach the Secretary not later than August 1, of this year. A brief introductory remark should clearly define the subject of the discussion. It should be stated whether addi­ tional information is furnished of a nature not yet presented in the contributions, whether the information supports and supplements material already presented, or whether the discussion oontains information that contradicts statements con­ tained in a paper. In the latter case all differences in the conditions, particularly as to the character of the soil, should be emphasized, to permit a reader to formulate his conclusions. All discussions should be specific, presented in a concise style, and must not exceed 1200 words. It is requested that generalities (complimentary remarks or otherwise) be omitted. Complete Papers have been submitted by only a limited number of authors. It is, at present, not possible to say which of the contributions, contained in this volume, will be available in a more detailed form. Authors were requested to send one copy each of their complete papers, in English, French or German, to the following addresses »

1) Professor F. Schaffernak, Tachnische Hochschule, , 2) Mr. Aage Bretting, Chief Engineer, Christian! k Nielsen, 77 Raadhusplads, Koperihagen, Denmark 3) Mr. G. Tschebotareff, The Foundation Research Laboratory, Egyptian University, Giza-Cairo, Egypt U) Dr. Oscar Faber, President of Structural Engineers, 10 Upper Belgrave Str., London S.W.l, 5) Mr. K. Langer, Laboratoire d 'Etude du Sol et des Fondations, Ministere de 1 'Education Nationale, 12 Rue Brancion, Paris XVe, 6) Professor A* Agatz, Technische Hochschule, Berlin, Germany 7) Mr. Giovanni Rodio, Corso Venezia ll|., Milano (3) 8) Professor N. M. Gereevanoff, Soljanka, 1. "WJOS", Moscow, USSR 9)àl0) Two copies should be sent to the Secretary of the Conferenoe, U. S. A.

These addresses represent the centers from which the full papers may be borrowed. It is evident that such oenters could not be established in every country. However, it is believed that their locations are conveniently chosen. It is suggested that Members and Absentee Members of the Conference or other interested persons who wish to borrow such papers, should send their request to the nearest of the above addresses. It is urgently requested that these pa­ pers should not be kept longer than one week, so that as many as possible may have an opportunity to study them prior to the Conference. Their primary purpose is to stimulate the contribution of discussions. Arrangements will also be made to permit the loan of these papers to interested persons after the Conference. Cost of Proceedings. In view of the faot that the printing costs for the entire three volumes will be more than double those estimated, the Committee on Organization has decided that the registration fee for Conference members applying af­ ter May 15, 1936 shall be ten dollars, and that this shall also be the price for sale of any sets of the Proceedings which may remain after all the members of, and contributors to, the Conferenoe have been supplied. Contributors of pa­ pers to the Conference, who are not members thereof, may purchase one set of the Proceedings for five dollars but must pay ten dollars per set for all additional sets desired. Reprints. Many requests for reprints have been received. On account of technical difficulties, particularly the large variation in number of reprints desired, they cannot be printed at the same time as the Proceedings, but will be ordered after the Conference. A notice will be sent to all contributors informing them of the cost of reprints.

Written discussions must reach the Seoretary not later than August 15, 1936, should be presented in a oonolse style, and should not exoeed 1200 words in length. No rest riction is placed on the number of neoessary tables and figures. It is requested that generalities (complimentary remar ks or otherwise) be omitted. A brief Introductory s tatement should clearly define the subject of the disousslon.
