coal begins to fail we may use the
water power Of the country as the
source OF energy, is, and must re-
main. a dream.
Because II all the possible water
power in the country were devel-
oped and every raindrop used. Il
would not supply our present de
mand for energy.
Hydraulic energy may, and should,
supplement coal. but IL can never
replace IL as a source OF energy.
Did you ever stop to consider how
much coal Is used in the United
States in the course OF a year.
Well. in 1918. the number OF tons
was S57. 900. 900. That may not mean
much TO you as il stands but let me
illustrate.
One OF the wonders OF the world
is the great Chinese wall, running
across China for hundreds OF miles.
Using the coal produced in one
year as building material. we could
build with II a like wall around the
United States. following the Cana
dian and Mexican frontiers and the
Atlantic and Pacific states.
And with the chemical energy
contained in the next years coal
production. we could lift this entire
wall up into space for a distance
OF 200 miles.
