Functions of the American Committee
The Committee hopes to serve as liaison with the International
Committee and to disseminate information originating with the international
organi 'Gation to scholars in the United States. The Committee will endeavor
to keep itself informed regarding meetings, books, collections, and research
related to the history of the Second World War. From time to time it will
disseminate such information by means of a newsletter which will serve not
only American historians but, via the International Committee, foreign schol­
ars as well.
This first newsletter includes some information regarding these
matters. Suggestions for future issues, names and addresses of those who
would be interested in receiving the newsletter, and corrections, may be
sent to the newsletter editor, Arthur L. Funk, c/o Department of History,
University of Florida, Gainesville, Florida, 32601.
International Committee on the History of the Second World War
The following summarizes part of the by-laws of the International
Committee:
(1) The Committee is formed to promote historical research on
this period of the world's history, in all its aspects.
(2) The Committee is made up of representatives of research groups
or of historians studying the Second World War, with one group
per state and one representative named by the group in question.
(3) The Officers wil consist of a president, two vice-presidents,
a secretary-general, and a treasurer. (At the May meeting a
provisional set of officers was chosen: M. Parri [Italy],
President, M. De Tong [Netherlands], Treasurer, and M. Michel
[France], Secretary General. The office will be the same as
that of the French Comite d'Historie de la 2~me Guerre Mondiale:
32, rue de Leningrad, Paris, VIII.)
(4)
The International Committee is to meet at least once every five
years, at the same time as the International Congress of Histor­
ical Sciences.
The officers meet when conv oked by the President.
Between sessions, the Committee delegates its powers to an
Executive Committee made up of the officers plus 8 to 12 elected
members.

Norway, Rumania, Yugoslavia, and Greece. Inquiries about affiliation
have been received in Paris from India, Japan, Canada, and Turkey.
Meetings
At the meeting of the Southern Historical Association in November,
1968, at New Orleans, a session will be devoted to Resistance movements
in World War II. M. Henri Michel has been invited and has indicated
that, if unanticipated conflicts do not develop, he will attend.
The French Comite d' Histoire de la 2eme Guerre Mondiale is
organizing at Paris, April 14-17, 1969, a colloquium on "The War in the
Mediterranean, 1939-1945." Seven sessions are planned, emphasizing
the role in the Mediterranean of Great Britain, the United States, Germany,
Italy, France, the Soviet Union, and North Africa. Arthur L. Funk, Pro­
fessor of History and Humanities at the University of Florida, and Martin

been named as the American participants.
At Moscow, in August 1970, during the sessions of the Congress
of Historical Sciences, the International Committee on the History of the
Second World War will sponsor a one-day session on "Manpower in the
War Effort." Albert A. Blum, Profes sor of Labor and Industrial Relations

This first edition of the newsletter contains a list of doctoral
research in the general field of the second World War. No attempt has
been made to ascertain whether a given dissertation has been published,
although it is clear that quite a few are in print. It is hoped that a later
bulletin will correct this list, indicate which have been published, and
provide lists of new books in World War II history.
The list reveals that the most active institutions, so far as
World War II studies in history are concerned, are: Columbia, Harvard,
Georgetown, Wisconsin, NYU, Stanford, Duke, The Fletcher School,
