Report of the secretary
Article Abstract:
The Econometric Society's membership continues to grow steadily in the Far East, Latin America, Australasia, Europe and other parts of the world amidst the growing number of institutional subscribers to Econometrica. However, the number of members from North America and India-Southeast Asia are declining. In the wake of this development, the society is allocating more council seats for regions which have expanded their memberships. Statistics on the electing of fellows are given. Future meetings of the society are also listed.
