EW YORK, May,16.—Electrifica- tion of the railroads’ of the United States is one of their most important needs, Gerard Swope, president of the General Electric Co., told the Ameri- can Institute of Electrical kEngineers at a meeting yesterday. Although ihe steam engine has proved an inval ble aid in the development of modern MAY 16, 1925. ' civilization, he said, the electrical en- gine in time must supplant it if great- er efficiency is to be obtained. “The yearly saving of coal, if only one-half of the railroad mileage of the Unitell States were electrified,” he “would be approximately 40, 000,000 tons, or at the pre\'alllng' mar- ket price, $120,000,000 per year. Secretary:'of Commerce Herbert Hoover, in_ a message read to the institute last night, urged that stand- ardized electrical equipment be adopt- ed by the power group of the United States in order that operating costs may be reduced and all railroads of the country eventually be electrified.
