How to Plan Meetings: and Be a Successful Chairperson Joseph G. Glass Ph.b.

Mr. Joseph G. Glass, in writing this book, has performed a distinct service to the preservation of American Democracy. He is setting forth in this volume practical answers to a question that is in the minds of millions of Americans today: "How can we develop techniques that will enable us to find the right answers to the grave problems we face?" It is clear that Mr. Glass has had a great deal of first-hand experience in organizing and conducting a wide variety of meetings, the essential purpose of which is to help people arrive at sound conclusions about their common problems. In the days and years ahead we shall find increasing need for the practice of orderly discussion by all of our people. A former president of the United States has wisely said, "There is a proper urge in all Americans for unity in troubled times. But unless unity is based on right principles and right action it is a vain and dangerous thing. Honest difference of views and honest debate are not disunity. They are the vital process of policy-making among free men." I heartily congratulate Mr. Glass on his service to the American people in writing this book. George V. Denny, Jr.
