Of current interest: Ways of conserving critical material to aid wartime electrical industry

The subcommittee on conservation of materials, of the AIEE committee on cooperation with war agencies has assembled from information coming to its attention, examples of things that have been and are being done by the electrical industry to conserve critical materials. The subcommittee has obtained this information from many sources and, of course, has had no opportunity to investigate the various measures. Such of the items as have appeared in publications available to the industry as a whole are so credited. Others have been developed at recent meetings at which conservation was the principal theme. Still others have been brought to the attention of the subcommittee informally by engineers well-known in the electrical industry.
