Reports on 14 technical conferences held during the Summer convention at Ithaca

An innovation introduced during the recent A.I.E.E. summer convention at Ithaca, N. Y., June 24–28, 1935, was the holding of a series of informal or round table conferences on technical and educational problems of the electrical engineering profession. These conferences were scheduled primarily for the benefit of specialists and the younger members, and were, in general, sponsored by subcommittees of technical committees. They afforded an opportunity for an interchange of ideas, regardless of whether or not the individuals interested were members of technical committees.
