Other advantages held out are greater economy in production, stab- ilization of supplies and creation of larger reserves of power, increased efficiency In transportation through electrification of facilities, extension of power to farms, and a lightening of | labor requirements upon men, The northeastern superpower com- mittee, to which the report was sub- mitted, was organized here Jast Octo- ber after an informal eonference of | state utilities commission chairmen | garry Wetmore Concludes 42 Years from 11 states assembled hy Secre- . taty Hoover, and the sub-committee, comprising representatives of these | commisslons, the United States geolo- gleal survey, the federal power com- mission, and the war department, was | appointed to work out a method for state and federal cooperation in pro- moting power development, The sub-committee considered the resources and needs of Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachuselts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland and the District of Colum- | bia, and devoted some attention also to thoze in Ohio, Virginia and West % Virginia.
