Following the nrocram. the meet- “
“How much electricity is there, Dad?"
You can answer that question—as well
as Jimmy’s dad can.
The answer is pretty clear—there’s
plenty of electricity.
Just look around your house. Elec
tric lights—radio and television—re
frigerator, dishwasher, range, washer,
dryer, clocks, freezer, vacuum cleaner.
You’ll be able to think of many other
electric helpers at work or standing
ready to serve you.
There’s plenty of electricity because
America's electric light and power com
panies keep the supply ahead of your
needs. Today you’re using twice aa
much electricity as you did in 1915.
In 5 or 10 years you’ll be using a lot
more. The new pow er plants and equip
ment to bring you that additional elec
tricity are already being built or on
the drawing boards.
This is a good thing to remember
when you hear people say that the
federal government ought to build
more electric power plants. That is
unnecessary—and a waste of tax dol
lars. In addition, government-built
power plants present the threat of a
socialistic U. S. A.
