Annual technical committee reports

The work of the A. I. E. E. Technical Committees has been growing for the past several years until it has now become an important function in the activities of the Institute. When these committees were first organized their chief and almost sole function was to pass judgment on such-contributed papers as fell within their respective fields. This work as a rule was done by the chairmen of the committees and there was, at first very little real committee activity. Later, the chairmen were made members of the Meetings and Papers Committee and in this way they obtained a broader insight into the work of the Institute which lead to the cooperation of all the committees in producing well balanced and timely programs for the various Institute meetings and conventions.
