The sixth annual meeting of the American Home Economics Association was held at Cornell University, Ithaca, N. Y., Friday, June 27, to Friday, July 4, 1913, inclusive. This was the first summer meeting of the Association and therefore the first meeting of such length. The meeting was the largest and the most enthusiastic ever held by the Association. The unlimited hospitality of the Home Economics Department of Cornell gave the note for the whole conference. The sessions were held in the Assembly Hall of the beautiful new Home Economics Building, the visitors ate in the cafeteria of the same building, and the majority of them were lodged at Sage College. The fact that for the first time the Administration Section forsook the beauties of Lake Placid to meet with the Association, made the meeting of wider interest and richer content. The weather was as warm as the Cornell welcome, but despite the heat, the attendance at meetings was uniformly good. It ran as follows: First session, 112; second session, 181; third session, 146; (reception and Sunday meeting not counted); fourth session, 208; fifth session, 177; sixth session, 186; seventh session, 189; eighth session, 192; ninth session (first of Institution Economics), 190; tenth session, 105; eleventh session, 150; twelfth session, 93. The official registration was 243, but of course this does not show everyone in attendance. An analysis of the registration does, however, show some interesting facts. There were representatives from thirty of

Excerpt from The Journal of Home Economics, 1922, Vol. 14 Most superintendents are willing and able to take the first steps, one of which is the equipment Of their schools with scales. Of the 59 cities in New York State, for instance, only 4 have no scales in the schools. Of the 58 villages in the state only 9 have no scales in the schools.

Excerpt from The Journal of Home Economics, 1914, Vol. 6: Complete in Five Numbers It took some time for the social workers to learn to use the house keeper's services and for the first few weeks the work was very much hampered by the fewness of the cases referred to it. At the end of the first six months we find that the work is really far heavier than one person can possibly manage, and already definite plans have been made to enlarge it in the very near future. We found at the outset that the referring of cases to the Visiting Housekeeper, by the different cooperating organizations, made it pos sible for her to gain a friendly entrance into the families. Perhaps the most valuable were the introductions given through our nurses and social workers, for they had already been of true help to the fam ily in question; therefore, when they suggested to a mother that she allow some one else to come in and help her in the matter of diet and home-making, the Visiting Housekeeper found that the way had al ready been paved, and she was sure of a more hearty reception than otherwise would have been accorded her.

Excerpt from The Journal of Home Economics, 1921, Vol. 13 We have now come to the break. Prices are falling. They must fall. We have the psychology as well as the fact of the falling prices. The consumer today refuses to buy, not for the opposite reason Of his willingness to buy a year ago - that he had money then and has no money now; that is not the primary motivation at all. A year ago the consumer believed that the trend of prices was still rising. Today the consumer believes that the trend of prices is falling and that he can accelerate that trend by refusing to buy. The consumer found to his bitterness a year ago that by his buying he hastened the trend of prices upwards, and he reasons now that in a Similar way by refusing to buy he can accelerate the trend of prices downwards. And this is correct. The only question is: To what extent is it wise to accelerate the curve of prices downwards? Now, a panic is little more than an accelerated run of price deflation. If prices are to fall, and they must fall, and then on the basis Of reduced prices consumption is to be maintained, it is apparent that the refusal of the consumer to buy cannot go to the point of lowering production so profoundly that it will be later unequal to the demand. In other words, the ideal method of price deflation is that it taper ofl gradually. If deflation occurs precipitously, it leads to such profound disorganization of the processes Of production that later when the demand comes supply cannot be maintained and prices again rise, or in any event exhibit startling instabilities.
