CITY PROPERTY for RENT or SALE "Electricity: Keeps Modern Civili zation Going" Says Ernest Greenwood in his new book, "Aladdin, U. S. A." "If it were possible to visualize our complex daily life of today suddenly set down in the midst of conditions as they were a a hundred or even fifty years ago, totally lacking in mod ern resources which keep things moving, we could, perhaps, get some idea of the confusion and even hysteria which would be the inevit able result if our electric light and power in dustries should cease to function." Electricity, first a curiosity, then a novelty, then a luxury, has now come to play so vital a part in every process of manufacturing, selling, trans portation, communication, and our ordinary dally living, that Interruption to its efilcient generation and distribution would paralyze the nation. Electric light and power companies do much more than merely care for the day-by-day demands of their cus tomers. Otherwise, the price of electrical service would not have steadily declined while other costs were going up. The modern electric utility Is run on plans made years In advance. The entire structure af America's unparalleled elec trical development has its or igin in the stimulation given to the greater use of electric ity by having an abundant. supply always ready at the lowest possible cost To plan ahead, to keep eter nally on the watch for better methods and new economies, requires a type of manage ment not unknown to Amer ican business men. But it re quires one condition without which it can niether function nor exist that is the freedom of the individual to plan, to execute his plans and to pros per as he wins success. With public regulation of Its rates, its services and its earnings, the electric light and power Industry thus far hns been able to hold the in dividual type of management within its ranks. The contin uance of this principle of In dividual initiative will assure the maintenance of economy and efllclency in public service.
