Edison General File Series -- 1918: (E-18-28) Edison Engineering Society
[E1828]

This folder contains documents relating to the Edison Engineering Society, an association for engineers employed by the Edison companies. The one item for 1918 is an undated three-page essay by senior experimenter and engineer William Walter Dinwiddie entitled "Objects of Edison Engineering Society." It is primarily a criticism of the group for drinking at meetings and paying too little attention to the declining role of engineers in corporate leadership.
