Almost â€" without: exception © the American public has agreed with the inherent justice of, the ruling which gives to the army of postal .employes some of the holiday privileges enâ€" joyed by others, but so long denied them. W The old "home town" plant of the | "early" days was mentioned by the speaker as the first step in the deâ€" _| velopment of the industry, but it was generally a small affair, financed by local business men who wanted their dividends but who didn‘t look forward to extension ‘of, service. Hence, the «old companies were necessarily weak, their owners had Jittle or no experâ€" ience in the field, and insufficient fiâ€" nancial <backing to meet increasing demands of patrons. It was, in the "old days,‘" a matter of peakâ€"loads on the plant when the lights went on in the evening and small business durâ€" ing daylight hours. Each little comâ€" | pany was of itself and for itself, Mr. Insull gaid, and hence the spread of ‘ business was small. . C ‘ Alternating System j Then came the alternating current system, the installationâ€"of wires that linked great power plants with many communities, the use of electricity for motors and for many other purposes, The old system, he pointed out, had to give way, as the people more and more were demanding electricity for light and power. Even the houseâ€" wife with her electric iron and wash> ingâ€"machine had to be takeén into acâ€" countâ€" who would want to disapâ€" | point an American woman bent on | getting out the washing and ironing in time ? i . Widespread approval has greeted the recent announcement of the Postâ€" master General that there will be no mail deliveries on Christmas day. GENERAL APPROV AL FOR DRY CLEANING & DYEING RUG CLEANING & CURTAIN _ ~ Al these demands meant greater plants, and larger plants meant inâ€" creased capital, and increased capital necessitated careful and conservative financing. This brought the soâ€"called "holding company" into being and at this junécture the speaker said he deâ€" ploredâ€" the term, as some people do not quite understand what a company with such a misnomer is, Mr. Insull described it in simple language as an investment company, organized to fiâ€" nance many coâ€"operating electricity manufacturing units in a certain secâ€" tion of the nation, to join these comâ€" panies into a confederation of sympaâ€" thetic units, to supervise their busiâ€" ness in all its branches, to extend it when required and to live up to the motto; of first class service at as low cost as practicable. fek 1 ‘OF POSTAL HOLIDAY Public Wants Post Office Em: ployes to Enjoy Christs mas; Must Help â€" STRETCHING THE RELIABLE LAUNDRY PHONES 178â€"179 8 . How systematic organization of the electric light and power industry, the linkingâ€"together of many small local units into a closelyâ€"knit corporation which can serve the most people at the smallest cost,â€"how these developâ€" ments of the last fifteen years in the United States have resulted in excepâ€" tional service to the people of Ameriâ€" ca, were told last week by Martin J.
