A Gateway—Electrical
NLY a forty-foot gateway bounded

way in the entire world,
For back of it is the General Electric
Company's main office building, accom.
modating 2300employees. And justnext
door is its main laboratory with the

products are made by the thousands of
electrical workers who daily stream
through.
Through this gate messages and repre-

every hour—an endless chain of co-ordi-
nated activities carrying on and enlat
ing the scope of over a quarter century's
work for the betterment of mankind.
‘What a story this gate would tell, if it
could, of the leaders of the electrical in-
dustry and of ambassadors from other
industries and institutions—and from

tory of electric lighting, electric trans-
