Abstract :
WITH a technical program enlarged to include 17 sessions, at which 82 technical papers were presented, two general sessions, and five technical conferences, the AIEE 1939 winter convention held in New York, N. Y., January 23–27, closed with a total registered attendance of 1,610 — the highest since 1924. This enlarged program, together with the careful planning and execution of the program as a whole on the part of the hard-working winter-convention committee, is believed to be largely responsible for the increased attendance. More detailed statistics on registration and attendance are given in accompanying tabulations. Included on the program were the usual entertainment features and inspection trips. A special evening program was devoted to presentation of the Edison and John Fritz medals to Past Presidents D. C. Jackson and F. B. Jewett, respectively.
