25 SEPTEMBER 1959, Page 6

I HAVE RECEIVED a brochure from the Bow Group on

its research activities. Nineteen study-groups are listed, with a description of the work-in- progress of each one. Thus, the Banking group is bringing out a pamphlet; the group studying the Role of the Technician in Society has almost com- pleted a factual survey; the Welsh group has just brought out a study of Work for Wales. But I particularly liked the comment on Group Six, which has been studying 'Conservative Principles.' The note on it says: 'This group is inactive at the moment.'
