Abstract :
One of the outstanding features of the coming Winter Convention is the “Electrical Communication” session scheduled for Thursday morning, February 16. At this session greetings will be exchanged between the Institute and its sister society in London, England, by radiotelephone which will be heard by the members of both societies at meetings held simultaneously. Nothing could better illustrate the wonderful and spectacular advances in the art of electrical communication than a comparison of this meeting with one held by the Institute twelve years ago under the leadership of General John J. Carty, at that time president of the A. I. E. E.
