Text Appearing Before Image:
of the former and would arrest the sleep ofthe latter. It is impossible to judge the future by thepast without making full allowance for the changedconditions resulting from the modern transmission ofinformation, power and products. The transmission and distributing systems aregradually covering the entire state, forming an elec-trical metallic screen over the country. This is ascreen of equal and constant potential under whichservice, opportunities, and rates tend to become equal.By building the transmission systems across andthrough the valleys of California, there is formed asystem which makes for the uniform and stable de-velopment of the state as a whole. Not only this, butthe hydroelectric companies use a waste to reduce awant. This gives us assurance for the future, for anincreasing population requires progress, progress re-quires profits, profits requires efficiency, and we mayclaim in all modesty that modern business could notbe carried on efficiently without electric power.
