Thousands of food canning plants like ours—and our silent partner, Gz Electricity— are doing a real defense job nowadays! * Today no industry has to worry about its power supply, no matter where it is ... ★ National Defense is a many-thousand-sided problem. N o body knows it better than the plants that are busy with rush defense orders— in Pennsylvania, Michigan, California, the Great Northwest or anywhere else. But no mannfacturer, anywhere in the nation, needs to worry today about his pow er service. The vast network o f high- voltage power transmission lines that you see on the map is a defense system in itself. America’s power systems are ready to supply power wherever in your own home.
