ficnoral Palmer In Philadelphia, whero
Chnrles P Donnelly, long afflllnted with
the Old Guard clement, has been rec-
This 'situation, it was explained, was
due to the necessity of Palmer's friends
holding the Pennsylvania delegation
rolidlv for the attorney as a cnntlithttc
fro the presidential nomination. It
appears that Mr. Palmer was confident
of winning the nomination if only he
could hold his own variegated delega
tion together.
Affording to the delegates, Pnlmer
averted thnt Scnotor Walsh, of Massa
chusetts; Wilbur Marsh, of Iowa; 1'retl

stand with him at tho convention, pro
a ided he could control tho Keystone
group of delegates. In thin situation.
Sterling jumped In the delegation and
"rounded up" delegates who nnttirally
would have been delighted to leave Pal
mer nt the earliest opportunity. This'ls
the reason, it is said, why Sterling is to
take the plneo Id the state organization
which hai been held by Palmer and Mc

deal will come, according to the dele

be made over the question of awarding

who heretofore have been left out in

THE chief engineer of a $5,000,000 plant in one of St. Louis new indus
trial: districts prepared plans and specifications for an $800,000 gen
erating station to supply electric current. He figured that an immense
quantity of refuse which could be used as fuel in the generating station would
be provided in the daily operation of the plant.
Inquiry developed that St. Louis has a dual supply of cheap hydro
electric current and steam-generated energy in plentiful quantity to serve
alUndustrics that locate in St. Lpuis. The company found that St. Louis is
girdled with an interlocking transmission system between the two sources of
suPPly, Btvmg interconnection through eight substations strategically placed
throughout the city.
The company was convinced. The engineer tore up his blueprints. The
plan to build an $800,000 generating station was abandoned. The company
found that it could dispose of its fuel refuse in other wuvs and buy its power
current here in St. Louis cheaper than it could generate it's own supply through
the use of the refuse.
St. Louis Has Abundant Electric Power
One of the essential factors in industrial' development these days is an
ample supply of icjiublc- electric energy sold at rates which enable manufac
turers to use it in large blocks economically. St. Louis is in a remarkably
advantageous position in (his respect. It has a large capacity of electric cur
rent fromvthe Keokuk Dam and a local steam generating plant located directly
on the Mississippi River.
ImmMr'
St. Louis has not permitted its
electric supply to become depleted
by war conditions. During the war
the management of the light and
power utility foresaw a big perma
nent industrial development in St.
Louis and kept ahead of the demand
for current.
St. Louis can furnish ample electric power for anv of the following sixteen
industries for which there is need and a profitable market in the St. Louis trade
territory:
