Before and after Arthur Morgan. Messrs. H. A. Morgan and David Lilienthal were heard. Said H. A. Morgan: "TVA is a good thing."

...corporation which TVA evangels never include in their critical remarks about power corporations is the TVA itself. Like RFC, FDIC, Commodity Credit Corp., TVA is Government corporation in business. In its buying and selling, making contracts, filing suits, its status as an incorporated concern relieves it of much red tape. Last week Dr. Arthur E.

The Teletypesetter performs its operations by the use of a perforated tape rather than a photocell. Not only can either of these devices be used to receive dispatches from long distances quickly convertible into type; their inventors claim that, used to set up local copy within an office, the machines are far more efficient than manual operation of linotypes. Stories are accumulated either on the Semagraph code copy or on the Teletypesetter tape...
