PLANS Ole THE ORGANIZATION.


AS can readily be perceived, the business
OF supplying burners for the whole of the
United States will be gigantic enterprise,
too large for any one concern to properly
handle in all its details; therefore il has been
thought advisable by the lparties interested
to divide the business into various nanqs,
and the system adopted is to cOnfine the
Welsbach Incandescent Gas Light Company
parent Company to the manufacture OF the
burner, the acquisition of patents, and the
granting of licenses under them to territorial
and whose functions will be the
promotion of the business in the
cities and towns of their respective
districts. and the distribution of the burners
to the actual sellers Of them, who will prob
ably be either the local gas companies or lo-
cal companies organized especially for the
purpose. By this distribution of the differ
ent branches of the business it is thought
that more efficiency will be obtained in each
department than should one concern at
tempt to conduct and oversee all details,
from the manufacture Of the fluid to the sat-
isfaction of the purchaser of the burner Fol-
lowing out his policy, two territorial compa-
MES have been organized, the first STYLED the
"Welsbach lncandescent Gas Light Compa-
nv of the State of New York." owning the
license for that State only, and the second
the "Welsbach lncandescent Gas Light
Company of Pennsylvania" owning the Ii
ware, Maryland, and the District of Column
bia, Local companies are now about 10 be
orqanized for the sale of the burner in the
lilies of New York and Philadelphia, which
