Seed Money
There's only one thing more foolish than killing the goose that
lays the golden eggs. That's living up the money that has been
put away to buy the seed for next year's crops.
Although G-E turbines and lamps and refrigerators don't
grow from any seed you can buy at a seed store, yet any manufacturer-no
matter what he makes -has a seed problem juft
the same. For next year's models, and improved designs, and
new products-all these cost money. Money for research, and
engineering, and new tools, and advertising to tell the public
v'where a product can be obtained, and how much it will cost
And the only place this money can come from is out of past
'earnings, or borrowing on the promise of earnings in the future.
iln other words-from seed money.
From the seed of research and engineering, planted in years
past by General Electric, have come some pretty amazing
crops. Incandescent lamps five times as efficient as Edison's,
'vacuum tubes that made radiobroadcasting possible, refrigetw
ators for the home and electric machines for industry to make
'important jobs easier.
Right now the crops we're growing are all of the "Victory
Garden" kind-weapons that are serving with our armed forces
on land and sea and in the air.
But we mustn't neglect the seed money for the future. WeTe
looking forward to the continuance of the industrial system
that will allow us to open up and cultivate other new and prom
'ising fields. So, tomorrow, look for important developments in
television, fluorescent lighting, plastics, electronics. These will
be familiar words in the post-war world. GENERAL ELECTRIC
