Quarter Century of Engineering Foundation. A recent report of the Engineering Foundation points out that since its establishment in 1914 the organization has carried out 73 research projects involving expenditure of more than $3,000,000. Outstanding projects have included a ten-year study of alloys of iron, work of a special committee on cotton-seed processing, an arch-dam investigation, and research in the fatigue of metals. Of electrical-engineering interest are projects on welding and dielectric absorption; studies of personnel and engineering education have also been made.
