“Electric Power
Is the Life Blood..

-«l
‘Electric power is the life blood of war production. Re
gardless of the availability of materials and labor, modern war
production would be impossible without power. ... It is
reassuring to know that electric power will not be a limiting
factor in all-out war production, and that whatever war loads
must be carried, electric power will be there in adequate quam
titles...
“The power men ... should be proud of the job that has
heen done in providing power supply. Power has never been
‘too little or too late’. There is to day no shortage of power.
This is in sharp contrast to the situation as to many other vital
necessities. I do not know of a single instance in which the
operation of a war plant has been delayed by lack of power
supply. Every single piece of complicated equipment... has
heen in place and ready to operate when the new war plants
were ready for use.

‘I repeat, the power men of the country can be proud of
the iob that they are doing.’’—J. A. Krug, Director, Office
of War Utilities.
