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.
