Abridgment of automatic stations: Annual report of the committee on automatic stations

To the Board of Directors: This terminates the second year of the existence of this committee. The field of action in which this relatively new committee finds itself is so broad and has so many inviting byways that it has been difficult to outline the work. The engineering connection with the application of automatic control is so fascinating as to result in so many new ideas being steadily developed that sometimes the fundamentals are almost overlooked. In the following report, this committee attempts to outline some of the development and offer suggestions which are intended to benefit this branch of the industry.
