The reports of the proceedings of the various interstate departmental officers' associations contain valuable comparative information as to departmental problems and methods. The Journal of Proceedings of the International Association of Factory Inspectors of America has been published since 1900. The National Association of Railway Commissioners, whose membership includes state and territorial railroad commissioners and members of the United States Interstate Commerce Commission, has published its proceedings since 1889. The first conference of the chief school officers of the several states and territories with the United States Bureau of Education was held in Washington, D.C., February, 1908. Various organizations interested in taxation meet and publish their proceedings, for example, the Bulletin of the International Tax Association (Columbus, Ohio, 1907); the Addresses and Proceedings of the Annual Conferences of the International Association on State and Local Taxation; the Proceedings of the National Conference on Taxation, 1901 to date. The Highway Engineers and Commissioners meet in conventions, as indicated above, and the discussions of comparative methods and progress are published.
