Abstract :
To the Board Directors: It is now generally recognized that progress in science and industry depends largely on research. Electrical engineering in particular must trace practically all its advances to some form of research, whether it be pure or applied. Accordingly a complete report on research in this art must necessarily involve practically all the developments in its various branches such as communication, machinery, transmission, etc. Inasmuch as this is particularly material for the Institute committees involving these branches, an attempt is made in this report merely to mention the various research bodies and their work in general, and to list briefly the outstanding achievements in engineering and physical research during the past year.
