Society for Altruism To Receive Charter

The International Research Society in Creative Altruism will receive a charter of incorporation from the State of Massachusetts within the next two weeks, its organizer and executive director, Pitirim A. Sorokin, announced last night.

Sorokin, Director of the University Center in Creative Altruism, predicted that the society would "develop into something quite important."

The head of the new society, who conceived the idea for the organisation last spring, said the group will publish a monthly bulletin and a quarterly report on results of the work. The association has not decided whether to accept students for membership. Over 100 industrial and cultural leaders have already expressed as interest in joining the society, Sorokin added.
