American Engineering Council

The June issue of the Monthly Labor Review, published by the U.S. Department of Labor, contains the first summary of statistics on the “Survey of Engineers´-´ conducted in August and September 1935, by the Bureau of Labor Statistics in collaboration with the committee on engineering and allied technical professions of the American engineering council in co-operation with more than 100 national, state, and local engineering societies. More than 50, 000 questionnaires were returned to the Bureau of Labor Statistics for classification and codification. This is the first professional survey undertaken by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, and the returns are said to represent the largest sampling of the engineering profession ever made. An abstract of this report appears elsewhere in this issue.
