Abstract :
A. E. Kennelly: Turning to the paper by Dawes and Hoover, it seems to me that the great force of that contribution lies in the fact that a bridge has been developed which employs a vibration galvanometer, with all the delicacy and precision that the vibration galvanometer affords, so that instead of having to employ a relatively great length of cable dielectric for test, it is sufficient to have only, say, a couple of meters, provided that the particular couple of meters shall represent fairly well, the whole length of a cable under consideration.
