Where do young college men get in a large
industrial organization? Have they
opportunity to exercise creative talent?
Is individual work recognized?
4 T Conowingo, not far from
where the Susquehanna
River flows into Chesapeake
Bay, the Philadelphia Electric
Company is erecting a huge dam
Conowingo
and power house. This hydro
electric development, one of the
largest in the world, has an initial
capacity of 28 i ,000 kv-a. in seven
units and an ultimate capacity of
440,000 kv-a. The generators,
due to their very low operating
speed of-81.8 r.p.m., are much
larger physically than anything
yet built, each machine being
approximately 37 feet in diameter
and weighing over one million
pounds.
Only an organization of the
size and resources of Westing-
house can undertake the building
of such a large machine. Westing-
house offers great attractions to
young men of enterprise and
genius because it daily provides
facilities and opportunities which
smaller companies cannot offer.

I have worked like blazes and have
been worked like blazes; have been
drunk and gotten others drunk; lost
all I had and part of my furniture;
and because I won’t spend or lend all
of the little I earn, and go beg, bor
row or steal, I have been cussed and
discussed, boycotted, talked to and
talked about; lied to and lied about;
held up, hung up, robbed and durn
near ruined; and the only reason I
am alive is because I am anxious to
see what in the thunder will happen
next.
