It was a mean, bitter job, heading him off. It still is. And though he doesn't look it now, there was a time when he seemed to have the world in his pocket. What did finally stop him? First of all, fighting men. Then, among other things, American production something he couldn't begin to match! Production of ships and planes and food and munitions and what it takes in unbelievable quantities! You see, this country not only had the men and the machines. It had the electric power, too without which war industry could not operate! The business-managed electric companies, of which we are one, are proud of what they hare done and are doing to make Hitler a has-been. They are even prouder that, in the face of war's enormous extra burdens, all essential civilian needs have been met. It wasn't it isn't a miracle. It's simply a Job done efficiently by able and hard-working men and women, plus experienced business management.
