In 1908 he was appointed professor of railwaymechanical engineering and was given direct charge of theMaster Car Builders laboratory, which is located at PurdueUniversity. In that way he has had charge of the tests con-ducted on the brake shoe testing machine of the Master CarBuilders Association for the last 12 years. He has also con-ducted a great many tests pertaining to superheated steam, andhas presented papers relating to that work before the MasterMechanics Association. Mr. Endsley was in direct charge ofthe locomotive laboratories during the tests on locomotive frontends, conducted by the Master Mechanics .Association. He alsoconducted, some years ago, for the .American Steel Foundries. Cof^yright by Moffctt, E. Endsley some interesting tests on the construction of the freight cartruck as affected by the different degrees of curvature. Thenew department in which Mr. Endsley has become a professor,is under the direction of D. F. Crawford, general superintendentof motive power of the Pennsylvania Lines West of Pittsburgh. ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING RESEARCH AT THEMASSACHUSETTS INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY The activities in electrical engineering research at the Massa-chusetts Institute of Technology have developed very rapidlyduring the past year and a noteworthy extension of the organ-ization for administering the researches has recently been ef-fected. This has been aided by the co-operative agreement be-tween Harvard University and the Institute of Technologywhereby the departments of electrical engineering in the two in-stitutions were practically merged. By this new organization for the research laboratory there iscreated a research commi
