Hands That Shape Modern Living
2011-May-21, 10:32 AM
Skilled hands that join glass and metal so that the human voice can reach millions of listeners. They first fashioned the high-power vacuum tube on a principle used today in every broadcasting station. They built the x-ray tube which has become an indispensable aid to the physician. They are the hands of craftsmen in the General Electric Research Laboratory, in Schenectady.

GE Engineer or Craftsman

They are the hands that enacted much of the thrilling history of the tubes in your radio, of phototubes that outperform the human eye, of sodium lamps that make night driving safer on many American highways. Skilled and experienced, these craftsmen built the first models of many of the new devices which now play an important part in modern civilization.

Research combines the abstract genius of the mathematician, the ingenuity of the experimenter, the practical skill of the craftsman.

The whole American system is built on the cooperation of many hands and minds to translate the findings of science into an abundance of the necessities, comforts, and luxuries we all desire.

More goods for more people - at less cost - is the goal of American industry. It is the goal toward which GE research has made and is making significant progress.

GE (General Electric) research has saved the public from ten to one hundred dollars for every dollar it has earned for General Electric.
