To Buy ELECTRIC POWER care of the needs of shops and stores, 30 billion for homes, 13 billion for public trans- portation, street lighting, and other uses. These are t•'me of the accomplishments of the electric light and power industry and of the elec’s, d manufacturers who build rhe equipment used to generate, distribute, and utilize electricity working together with the teamwork so typically American. How We Helped POWER GENERATION. More than one hall of all the electric power generated by electric light and power companies in the U. S. is pro- duccd by generators manufactured by General Electric. And such has been the improvement in the efficiencies of turbine-driven generators that if the electric power used in 1942 had been pro duced with the machines of 1924, it would have required more than a million extra cars of coal and one hundred and forty thousand men just to mine and haul this extra coal. POWER DISTRIBUTION. To have ample power available wherever new war plants have sprung up requires large and highly efficient transforming and switching equipment and the solution of highly intricate engineering prob lems General Electric has had a hand, and a head, in the development and manufacture of much of this equipment. POWER UTILIZATION. Building ma chines, lamps, and appliances that put elec tricity to work more efficiently in factories and homes is one of our most important jobs. The United States has more of these electrical helpers than any other nation. In 1942, the average home used twice as much electricity as in 1930, and in those 12 years the average price per kilowatt-hour decreased 40%. ★ • • This is only • small part of the story of America’s elec trical industry. When the full story becomes history with the passing of the years, it will reveal a group of men who, with s determination which now seems providential, kept on— co-operatively developing new and better equipment, increas ing generating capacity, lowering costs, expanding service, planning always to be ready for the demands of the future. It will be a story of remarkable vision and courage—for it all had to be planned, and the work started, years ahead of the need. The next time von meet a man from your electric service company, be he the local manager, or meter reader, or spurred lineman carrying out his assignment in rain, sleet, or heavy winds, give him a word of encouragement— for he is the man who is making it unnecessary for you to stand in line for electric power.
