For several years the Bureau of Community Planning in the College of Fine and Applied Arts has been operated as a separate department under the supervision ot the Dean as Director. I t has been proposed that, in view of the unanimity of professional and service interests, this Bureau be merged with the Department of City Planning and Landscape Architecture, beginning September I, 1954. All concerned have concurred in this consolidation, and I so recommend.

On motion of Mr. Bissell, these recommendations were approved.
