Twenty-three turbine^ generators, with a combined capacity off more than 960,000 kw, were completed front Jon through April.

Addiqri production of amatler turbine* at GE Riv^j Work*, Lynn, Mas*, and plant at Fiick'l burg, Mast.. the total is more thut 1,000,000 kw. . "The Scheneciady turbine plant definitely! set a record (or production up ihrourijj April, and other company plant* are near-record levels now," Mr Belanger ecta-^j ments. Looking ahead, he say* the eea.j pany la optimistic. "It production continue*.] at the present rate, (he Schcneeledy pUat[ alone will produce more than 2,600,090 kv> of turbine-generators before the year's tail Most of the steel needed for the acts eehed^j uled lor tho remainder ol this year biy already been procured." The wide use of compressed air in industry focuses sharp attention on the problems of efficiency and economy of operation. Both problems ore' frequently controlled by the proper grade and type of lubricant used. - Regardless ol the site or type ol youT compressor, the oils used must be carefully selected and skillfully opplied. A Cities Service Lubrication Engineer will recommend up-to-date compressor lubrication methods. Cities Service Air Compressor Lubricants Now--you can purchase an axial flow compressor which can deliver from 2000 to 300,000 cfm and pressures up to 100 psi may be obtained in a single unit. This Flader Compressor introduces an entirely new principle of industrial compressor design. It provides operating efficiency up to 88% and saves up to 20% power consumption in the larger sizes. Floor area and general space requirements are less than 10% those needed for other type compressors and the weight is less than 10% of other type com pressor weights. Drive may be either electrical, steam or gas turbine. Gas turbine drives are manufactured by us.
