humanity:
The General Electric

cess in scientific research and engin-
eering development.
Its tremendous laboratories in
which world-famed experts are com—
missioned to experiment on new lines

tiOn in the public mind.

535.000.000. Now its stock is 3184.-
000.000. Its sales have increased
from 312.000.000 to $243,000,000 au-
