OTHER GOOD FEATUR ES
Let's all go smilin'
through Nineteen
Twenty-Two!

Thirty years' ago, the alternating current
system was but an infant, for whose life those
who believed in it were fighting daily and
nightly battles; today this same system is a
giant of almost inconceivable size, so capable
of defending itself that no one seeks to attack
it. For 95% of the electricity that is gener-
ated and transmitted today is alternating
current.
The story of the development of alternating
current is a story of courage and vision and
faith; of misunderstanding and misrepresen-
tation; of engineering failures and triumphs;
of commercial ability and organization. It
reads like a classic romance. In its chapters
are credit and honor for all who have deserved
it, but the central figure, the man whose
motives and acts furnished the basis of the
plot, was George Westinghouse, the founder
of the Westinghouse Industries.
When, in 1886, he brought over from
Europe the crude Gaulard and Gibbs system,
even he, great as was his foresight, did not
dream of the coming magnitude of the idea
which he was fostering. The development
work undertaken by the strong engineers
whom he put to work led at first into many
' serious differences with those who favored
direct current. Legislatures were even impor-

tuned to prevent the use of the "deadly
Westinghouse Current", as many extremists
described it.
That the little 50 horsepower generators of
those days have grown to sizes two thousand
times as large; that stations of a few horse-
power have been succeeded by stations with
a capacity of hundreds of thousands of horse-
power, while at the same time, distribution
voltages have grown from 1,000 to 220,000,
is due largely to the vision and the courage of
George Westinghouse, and to the qualities
of the engineers whom he called, character-
istically, to help him. By no means the least
of the achievements of this man was his
ability to organize the greatest aggregation of
engineering intelligence ever known, men of
analytical ability, consummate mathema-
ticians, great inventors; and to promote in
this great group the most harmonious, and
intelligent co-operation.
The same energy and courage and purpose
that forced the 'acceptance of the air brake,
the modern systems for the economic and safe
distribution of natural gas, and later of the
steam turbine, led and won the fight for alter-
nating current, which has grown to be one of
the. world's greatest and most necessary
commodities.
