THE NAME THAT MEANS

EVERYTHING

IN ELECTRICITY

Many people say Westing- house is "the name that means everything in electricity”—a reputation carned by Westing- bouse through more than fifty years of service and accomplish- meat in the electrical industry. Today the Westinghouse

name means motors, meters, controls, circuit breakers, giant focomotives, heating, lighting, and X-ray apparatus, household products of every sort. It also stands for equipment needed to make and distribute electricity; steam turbines and water wheel

generators, transformers, re- mote control systems-the list seems endless; some 30,000 products.

You will also find that "the

name that means everything in electricity" has a double mean- ing when applied to Westing- house; a source of supply for practically everything electrical; and a concern so thoroughly identified with electrical achievement that anyone, any- where, may buy Westinghouse electrical products with utmost confidence.
