Some of the earlyBell System installations, however,utilize gas as fuel and are cooled bycity running water. In order thatthese engines may be independent ofall supply services that might be inter-rupted in times of emergency, consid-eration is now being given to a pro-gram of arranging them for operationon gasoline, with radiator student of engine design will beinterested in comparing Figure 6,which illustrates one of the older gasengine sets installed about 20 years ago, with Figure 3, which shows anengine of about the same size buthaving five times the capacity. And so, if and when the continuedfunctioning of the central office bat-teries giving electrical life to tele-phone facilities is threatened, therewill be means readily at hand withwhi
