    Pursuant to the provisions of the Federal Advisory Committee Act 
(Pub. L. 92-463, as amended) notice is hereby given the National 
Council on the Humanities will meet in Washington, DC on July 27-28,

    The purpose of the meeting is to advise the Chairman of the

information that may disclose: Trade secrets and commercial or 
financial information obtained from a person and privileged or 
confidential; information of a personal nature the disclosure of which 
would constitute a clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy;
