Reports
of Affiliates and Committees of The World Calendar Association,
International, presented at the Ninth Annual Meeting
16 January 1956, reflect the world-wide interest
in and need for calendar reform. Published highlights (JCR
Vol. 25, Dec. 1955 - Jan. 1956) for PAKISTAN:
During
the month of August a new committee for calendar reform was
established in Pakistan through the efforts of Professor colin
Jackson, who did promotional work for The World Calendar Association
while on a trip to the Far East. Professor Jackson was able
to secure the services of Mr. Sharaf Faridi of Karachi as
Chairman of this Committee.
Mr.
Faridi reports that he had had discussions with important
individuals on the subject and has been successful in arousing
the interest of the Pakistan Student council. He plans an
extensive program to introduce The World Calendar to the people
of Pakistan.
