Abstract
THE PIONEERS OF the electrical industry were more foresighted than I believe they realized in establishing medals such as the Edison to be presented today. The occasion makes us pause in our fast-moving pace to inventory the most important factor in our industrial progress — men. The occasion causes us to consider and recognize those who have contributed the ideas and leadership that have made possible this great rate of progress. Today is a very pleasant milestone in the life of the man we are honoring. It is equally pleasant for me to have the honor of briefly sketching the accomplishments of our 1951 Edison Medalist, Dr. Charles Frederick Wagner: pleasant for me because I have watched at close range and admired the work of this man over a 30-year period. During that time he has contributed much.
