events in 1910 have placed added
responsibilities on the electric light
and power industry, declared Ed
ward L. Shea, president of the
North American Co, today.
During the year just closed, the
industry has taken on new Nation
wide Importance as the defense
program has gathered momentum.
The situation is giving the holding
company systems a further oppor-
tunity to demonstrate graphically
their economic vitality and use
fulneSs-their willingness to use
their financial resources, experience
and trained manpoWer in the
interest of the country at large.
Demands for electric power in
recent months have broken all
previous records. and still higher
peaks are in prospect. However.
advance planning Is anticipating
the problem of increased supply.
The North American system is
we'll along on its new construction
program which calls for additional
electric generating capacity of $40
900 kilowatts. This expansion
amounts to one-fourth of the sys-
TENS capacity at the beginning of
1910 and, together with other
facilities. means an outlay of ap-
proximately s1o4, 900 900. Such large
industrial centers as Cleveland, Mil

years. while those in the adjoining
residential sections continued to
climb sharply. New auto titles in
the District were ahead of last
year but failed to equal 1887 marks.
Visitors TO leading tourist attrac-

previous year. while hotels did the
best business since 1929 and in some
months exceeded those levels.
Living costs were moderately
