Modern Motive Might
1\/|' OUNTAINS, miles and minutes give
«LVJL way before electricity, the magic mo
tive power. Properly applied, it drives giant
locomotives across the continental divide,
tows ocean liners through the Panama Canal,
or propels huge ships.
Through good light, safe signals, and illumin
ated highways, it is making travel better and
safer and also is increasing the usefulness of
transportation methods on land, sea or in
the air.
In short, electricity is revolutionizing trans
portation, making it quicker, safer, more eco
nomical and reliable in all sorts of weather.
And back of this development in electric
transportation, in generating and transmit
ting apparatus as well as motive mechan
isms, are the co-ordinated scientific, engi
neering and manufacturing resources of the
General Electric Company, working to the
end that
serve mankind.
