APPENDIX E

175 Trade ASSOCIATIONS WITH A SPECIAL INTEREST IN TECHNICAL RESEARCH

The 175 national trade associations listed below are typical of those especially active in encouraging research in their industries by various means, such as (1) keeping their members abreast of current research in their field (2) holding frequent "clinics" on technical problems; (3) financing research fellowships; and (4) in some cases engaging in actual laboratory work.

Not included are the special-project organizations where a limited number of companies in an industry set up a small research agency to deal with a special problem. Examples are Drilling Research, Inc., and Fractionation Research, Inc.

The names italicized had larger than average staffs in 1956-57. Those marked with an asterisk (*) had staffs of less than 4 persons.
