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.
