A world clearing-house for mathematical information and discoveries made by calculating machines was proposed to the United Nations yesterday by Howard H., Aiken, professor of Applied Mathematics and director of the University Computation Laboratory.
This "International Bureau of Computations" would compile and distribute data on the uses and work of mathematical calculators throughout the world, preventing duplication of research and extending the range of work. The Computations made by the machines would be published by the central bureau, and made available for reprint and distribution.
