Abstract :
DURING the Convention held at Lake Placid in June, 1919, Dr. C. P. Steinmetz in discussing the work of the technical committees of the Institute expressed the belief that the annual reports of such committees should be planned to provide for the use of the entire membership of the Institute, a comprehensive record of the present status and recent progress of electrical engineering in the particular industry or branch of the art to which each committee had been organized to apply itself.
