A.S.M.E. holds annual meeting

Economics shared honors with engineering as a subject of major interest at the fifty-second annual meeting of The American Society of Mechanical Engineers, held in New York, N. Y., November 30 to December 4, 1931. While the registration, approximately 2,000, fell somewhat behind that of last year, there was no falling off of interest and significance nor in the broad extent of the program. Statistics indicate that there were scheduled some 25 technical sessions, 72 committee meetings, with 80 technical papers and reports presented, in addition to 6 special lectures and numerous other activities of a social and professional nature.
