Electrical Living
Standards

Few industries touch our liKes at
SO many points as the electrical
manufacturing industry, 1t is divid-
ed into nine primary branches: Ap-
pliances, refrigeration, construction
material industrial apparatus,
roughing-in material, installation
devices, generation apparatus, trans
mission and distribution equipment,
and insulated wire and cable for
light and power.
Your home, consequently, like
your place of business, Is closely
linked with the products of this in
dustry-all the way from the shell
of the house itself, to the convent
ences that make life happier, less
laboriOus, and more efficient. And
these conveniences are not restrict
ed to the city home. Electrical
equipment, such as water systems
and power appliances, are found on
thousands of farms, where they con-
tribute materially to raising the ag-
ricultural standard of living and the
agricultural income.
A(hh me thS PiOohNoo vi ACNONCtyg
with the national income rising,
there have been remarkable advan-s
ces in the sales of all types of cleo
trical home equipment-refriger
tors and fiatirons, air-conditioning
units and toast-makers, and hun
dred other appliances large and
small. This is a natural trend. The
American people realize that moth
ing can do as much to lessen work
and add to domestic comfort as
properly selected electric labor saw
ing devices-even as no dollar buys
so much service as the dollar spent
for the electricity that operates
them. The electric light and power
industry and the electrical manufac-
turing industry have been revolu-
tionary factors in American life. To
them belongs much of the credit for
the American standard of living,
which is ineomparably the highest
in the world.

Two Weapons Held Best
Defense; Inland Sea
Tension Continues
pasSiOnate ludRment.
By PETER c. RHODES
United Press Staff Correspondent

PARIS, Dec. 4. (UP)-France
has issued orders to speed up
program of construction Of de-
stroyerS and airplancs destined
for the navy as a result Of con-
tinued tension in the Mediterra-
mean, it has been learned here.
Commercial shipping, figures
show, has been hard hit by recent
attacks and the fear Of crews to
take to the sea without protcc-
ton. Following the double attack
Of a freighter and an Air France
dispatch boat on October "a, elev-
en- freighters anchored in the
Mediterranean port of Sete have
refused to sail. The crews demand
effective defense measures before
they will venture on any trips. 1t
is understood that the majority Of
these ships were intended to car
ry neutral cargoes Of food and
goods to Barcelona, short run
Of only ~ hours from Sete.

tual protection Of Frances mer-
chant fleet in case of open war
fare have been made since the
Mediterranean tension began a
year ago.
Experience from the World war
period and from the Spanish war
have provided the background for
most suggestions now under CON
sideartion. There are three forms
OF defense which the French in
tend to coordinate: airplane pa
trolls both for defensive and Of
fensive action in guarding COM
mercial ships, armed naval patrols
along commercial routes and sup
plemented by anti-aircraft and
light artillery on board merchant
vessels themselves, and armed
convovS Of ships.
AIRCRAFT DEFENSE

From Spanish experience, the
French have learned that unarm-
ed craft are easier victims of aer-
ial attack today than they were

offensive action in conjunction
with larger squadrons and for de-
fensive patrols that few can be
spared from normal naval squad
rons. The French have Il large
number Of destroyers today, but
not enough to spare for conveys.
Besides this they have % modern
torpedo boats, 8 small torpedo es-
cort ships and q number of old
torpedo boats and Seagoing
launches.
TORPEDO BOATS RUSHED
Since 1882 France has been
busy building most modern tor
pedo boats Of the liardi type.
None has yet come off the ways
and orders have gone TO all ship
yards to rush production and fin
ish all ships now overdue by
spring. Similar orders have been
given for bombing planes to join
naval patrols.
1t is reported here that already
an important number Of mystery
speedboats has been concentrated
in the Balearic waters. These
ships, known as the MAS type,
carry two torpcdocs in the prov,
are said to attain speed Of 60
knots and to maneuver better than

during the World war from SUBJ
marines. However, land warfare
in Spain has also taught that al
though anti-aircraft guns are
rarely effective despite modern
improvements in bringing down
enemy planes, that this fire does
force enemy craft TO such high
attitudes that effective bombing
is almost impossible. Above 1000
feet altitude enemy airplaneS
rarely have a chance to sink such
a small target as a moving ship.
The placing of experienced gun
crews with anti-aircraft batteries
aboard merchant ships, it is be-
licvcd, would be a fairly safe de-
Tense against air attack. However,
if mass bombing attacks are made
il is not believed a merchant YES
sci could carry enough guns to
ward off all attackers. Thus there
sstill an element Of vulncrability
in isolated defense Of merchant
men by themselves.
Against the possibility Of COM
bined attack from warships, SUBJ
marines and planes, even an
armed merchantmen is not con-
sidcred to have the slightest
chance. Normal patrols along trade
routes, such as those in operation
for q time after the Nyon accord
are not a real defense in case OF
serious warfare either, in expert
opinion. Provided an enemy has
air or sea bases within striking
distance Of such trade routes
(and this is the situation in the
Mediterranean today the patrols
need only be avoided at the mo-
ment of an attack to achieve sue
cess.
From past experience the
French are inclined to place their
defense Of merchant vessels in any
future conflict on the convoy sys-
tenn. During the World war only
| l-2 per cent loss was suffered
when merchant ships sailed under
convoy.
1t took the French a long time
to get their convoy service INTO
operation during the war. There
are many problems to solve III
using this system. II is necessary
to have sufficient ships available
to carry out a real escort. BE.
cause of the varying speeds OF
merchant ships it is always hard
to get a homogeneous group to-
gether. The slowness Of a convoy
leads to real delays which mean
heavy losses.
Today France has not sufficient
ships to meet its needs in war
time for the immediate establish
ment of conveys. Such ships must
be small and fast, for 1t is Il naval
waste TO use any ships larger than
destroyers. Destroyers, on the
other hand, are so necessary Tor

RFC HEAD WARNS
GOVERNMENT WILL
UMPIRE BUSINESS

NEW YORK. Dec. !. (UP).---
Chairman Jesse Jones Of the Re-
construction Finance corporation
last night appealed for coopera-
ton between industry and gov
eminent to end the business
slump and said that III we can't
manage to get along. we should
give the country back to the In
dams"
He told guests at the 52nd an
nual dinner of tn" New York
Southern society that u balanced
budget, however desirable, can
never be achieved until business
and government come TO 4 better
understanding.
in my opinion, the key to the
situation confronting us today Is
intelligent, cordial, friendly de-
termined cooperation between
government and business --- gov,
eminent and all the people"
Jones said.
at cannot be achieved if we
let ourselves believe that our gov
eminent is our enemy. Govern
ment must be the friend OF bust
ness, but BUSINESS must learn,
and is rapidly learning, that gov
eminent is the ,umpire--the SEN
Tor partner-and that it il the
governments responsibility to see
to it that business plays the game
squarely, and does not charge
too much for its service"
