Economists agree that it is the use of power in great
quantities that has led to so wonderful an industrial
development in the United States. Because power is so
large an expense in industrial enterprises, whatever
lowers the power bill contributes greatly to the pros-
perity of these establishments and consequently to the
building up of the community.

Here again natural gas contributes another enor-

served, for internal combustion engines operating on nat-
