JO H N D EERE <fc C ATER PILLA R ANOTHER»^ value in 'C A TE R P ILL A R *’ D IF S E < Electric power service is one of the FEW industries that was able to take care of sudden national defense demands in its regular stride. It needs no more than a telephone call to supply more service and more power to manufacturing plants, big or little, anywhere, any tim e! But think back to 1918! There were no interconnected trans mission systems covering the industrial map of America. Iso lated systems couldn’t transfer power from one to another, hundreds of miles away. They had no central sources of money and management and top-notch engineering skill. They had capacity to produce less than one-fourth as much power as America has available today. The power system groups— the so-called ‘'holding com panies”— supplied the essential element of interconnection that makes power service in America so vastly more efficient than it was' during the W orld War. Thty^have given American industry and the American home the finest power service in the world. And the American taxpayer need not take one dollar— let alone hundreds of millions— away from REAL AND UR GENT defense needs, to finance amateur political experiments with the world’s most efficient power service in this time of nationaTcrisis.
