(orporote members Not only do the corporate members of the American Oil Chemists' Society provide dues payments which are used to support the various professional programs of the Society, they do so in spades by paying the larger corporate fees of $200 a year. In addition, these firms also give invaluable support by paying individual A O C S dues of some employees, by sending their staff members to AOCS meetings and conferences, and by providing time for their staff to work on AOCS programs and committees. The Society is obviously very appreciative of their support and takes the opportunity to thank all of the current corporate members for these efforts. Others are, of course, encouraged to follow the example of the firms listed below by adding their support to AOCS efforts. Aceite Casa S.A., Fracc Industrial Vallejo, Mexico, 16 D.F., Mexico; M.J.
