...closing, Mr. Rhodes mentioned the merits of installing the Tungsten lamps in all subway trains in New York, instead of increasing the size of the copper feeder which would be a very expensive step.

The superiority of the Tungsten lamp lies in the fact that its candlepower varies considerably less in proportion...
