AT the sixth annual meeting of the
American Association of University
Instructors in Accounting held recently in
Pittsburgh one of the interesting topics

Correlation of Accounting Instruction in
Universities with the Needs of Public
Accountants" were read by J. Hugh Jack­son,

late of Harvard University, Paul E. Bacas,
Lybrand, Ross Brothers and Montgomery

in the respective firms. The papers were
discussed by Arthur E. Andersen, of A.

firms and ascertain if possible what
characteristics or qualifications the public

part of junior assistants for successful
entrance to the professional field.
