he said. The oil industry wntil
achieve it by having no devtl Zumfc

phasized.
“Most people define consent
as cutting down on the consump
of their existing energy,” explai
the general manager. “Conserv
is much more. It is redesigning
factories, homes, plants and
buildings to use energy as effide
as possible. Engineers
technologists are and will be nee
in this field, as we have onlyk
to learn how to conserve.”
With conservation, scienti
must proceed with the develop®
of alternative sources of energy
added. The United States need
the energy it can find, and
every source. All promising
must be explored, whether
coal, nuclear power, or
energy.
