Excerpt from Papers and Transactions for 1919 and Proceedings of the Thirty-Sixth Annual Meeting at New Haven, February 17 and 18, 1920 I will say all used by our troops except a little purchased from the F rench - were manufactured by our laboratories at West Street. So far as I know the matter of sound-ranging equipment dur ing the active period of the war was the most closely guarded secret of the war.
