...power in the world is hydroelectric; the cheapest labor is foreign. The Aluminum Company has many power prop- erties in the United States, but others in foreign countries, and the largest power of all is now being developed in Canada.

If the present tariff on aluminum is maintained, developments for the expansion of domestic business will be made in the United States.

...oilmen were not, however, cast down by any vision of a great market lost to them suddenly of in the proximate future. Chemist Audibert's process had indeed been shown commercially practicable, but only for a nation with coal in sufficient abundance to permit the diversion of millions of tons annually from furnaces to carburetors. To supply France with synthetic gasoline by the Audibert process would require three or four million tons of coal per annum, All this would have to be imported as France has not enough coal as it is. In terms of coldest economy, the logical...
