tors and external pressures which drove such policies and which deter-
mined their mode of operation.^26 A further meeting of the programme
committee was held on January 14, 1938, in Paris, a meeting that was
augmented by the presence of Kittredge and observers on behalf of the
national committees of Austria, Bulgaria, Belgium, Romania, Poland and
Yugoslavia. On this occasion, there was no Italian representation, how-
ever, Germany was represented in the form of Berber who would also
attend on January 15 a meeting of the ISC’s executive committee of
which Davis was the chair.^27
The executive committee meeting heard that the Rockefeller
Foundation had decided to extend the funding of the ISC and that it
had voted to the IIIC the generous sum of 100,000 dollars for the years
1938–1939. This sum was intended to cover the costs of the confer-
ence’s secretariat, to fund the work of the various national groups and
to ensure that the study conference’s next general rapporteur was able
to carry out the reforms to the conference that Condliffe and others had
recommended.^28
