Over a period of years members have been asking why the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics is not a department of the National Education Association. The Board of Directors has been studying the question since 1935.

Changes in the plan for the editing and business management of The Mathematics Teacher recently adopted by the Board of Directors, the affiliation of the Council with the National Education Association, and the formation of a delegate assembly made changes in the By-Laws of the Council advisable. The Board of Directors therefore authorized a committee to study the By-Laws and propose changes to be voted on at the business meeting of the Council to be held in Pittsburgh this spring.

One of the ways in which the National Council can contribute to the improvement of mathematics teaching is through the promotion of and participation in co-operative and constructive planning among teachers of mathematics and of other subjects and school administrators within a school system and on a county, state, regional, and national scale. The fact that National Council programs and many of our publications, as well as the programs and publications of the Affiliated Groups, are planned for teachers at all levels of instruction is continuing to assist in improved understanding among elementary, secondary, and college teachers of mathematics. In the May, 1951 number of The Mathematics Teacher a report was made on the co-operation and affiliation of the Affiliated Groups with education associations in the areas which they represent. The advantages which can come to the National Council through affiliation with the National Education Association will be reported on this page at a later date.

Constructive Criticism

The winter meeting of the National Education Association was held in Chicago in February, 1919. In the speeches and papers of that meeting, there were many sharp criticisms of mathematics. There were, however, no programs for the fr iendly discussion of content and method. There were no meetings provided where constructive criticism could be offered and reorganization attempted.
