Abstract :
The Winter Convention held in New York, January 28 to February 1 has the distinction of being the largest Institute convention in the number attending the various events, and one of the most interesting, technically. The technical sessions were unusually well attended and the 42 papers brought forth a great amount of discussion. A summarized report of the discussion will be given in the April JOURNAL and the complete report will be printed in the TRANSACTIONS. About 2000 were present during the week, and attendance records were broken, for the inspection trips, the Smoker, and the Dinner-Dance.
