Abstract :
SINCE the bimonthly publications were inaugurated in July and August 1952, there has been a considerable inflationary increase in the costs of printing, paper, salaries, and overhead for the staff to turn out the increased volume of these publications. Since these publications were first issued, Communication and Electronics and Power Apparatus and Systems have increased from 7,500 to 17,000 editions and Applications and Industry has increased from 5,500 to 13,000 editions. Also, the number of pages has increased from 2,068 to an average of 2,866 in a compact format over the past five years.
