The American Accounting Association held its annual convention in the Palmer House in Chicago on September 8 and 9, 1945. The change from the holiday season to the earlier date was made so that the problem of transportation and hotel accommodations would be less acute. On the evening of September 8, 1945 the regular business meeting of the Association was held in connection with the usual banquet. More than one hundred persons attended. Edward Kracke and William Charles, representatives of the American Institute of Accountants, spoke briefly. It was announced that more than hundred and fifty people were in attendance at the convention. The secretary-treasurer gave an interim financial report and announced that approximately two hundred and fifty new members had been secured in 1944. The chairman, presented a slate of officers for the calendar year 1945. The following were some of the members elected by the members present: professor Harvey G. Moyer, professor Geoffrey Carmichael, professor Ernest C. Davies. Copies of the financial report for the calendar year 1944 will be mailed to the members after it has been audited early in 1945.
