many “leading eitixens," bankers,

CONFIDENCE
Last year, thousands of persons invested more than
$850,000,000 of new capital in the electrical industry.
This steady flow of new capital, in spite of general
business conditions, clearly demonstrates the faith
of the American public in the electric utilities and
their managements. Without this confidence, the
industry would be unable to keep pace with the con
stantly increasing demands being made upon it.
