ENDING JAN. 15TH SWEATEK29c Page Seven Questlwon: What is wrong in t� qs Answer: The light has been left burning though the room is unoccupied. And while that isn't serious in normal times, today such thoughtlessness means a waste of coal, transportation, manpower and other critical resources. All of these things are necessary to manufacture elec- tricity, and the Government has asked for voluntary conservation in your use of electric power. Every time you snap an electric switch, you have an opportunity to SAVE—in your home, store or office. Electricity is not rationed and there is no shortage in this area. But conserving fuel and critical resources is vitally important today. Con- serve wherever you can, as much as you can. The Detroit Edison Company.
