Y. Vol. XXIX, No. 1 April, 1958 The Thirtieth Annual Meeting of the Federal Grand Jury Association for the Southern District of New York, held recently in the Warwick Hotel, was unusually successful and well attended. Members and friends heard a most interesting reort of the Association's prog- ress from our then President, Bernhard K. Schaefer, and a thought-provoking address on the subject of narcotic control from the Honorable Paul W. Williams, United States At- torney.
