After two years´ work a draft of specification and agreement has been prepared by the Joint Committee and is now offered for criticism by engineers or companies who may be interested in the subject. Members of the A. I. E. E. may obtain copies of this specification and agreement by application to the Secretary. All criticisms should be returned to Mr. W. J.
