His report precipi- tated f u r t h e r discussion by the Board on this subject. A motion to reconsider the Board's earlier recommendation concerning the sta- tistics was defeated. T h e Board then voted to transmit to LAD the Publications Com- mittee's statement concerning the J a n u a r y 1960 issue of CRL. A f t e r discussion of Mr. R a l p h Parker's recommendations f r o m the Committee on Organization the Board voted to recommend to the ALA Committee on Organization that ACRL's Committee on the Duplicates Ex- change U n i o n be transferred to the Re- sources and Technical Services Division.
