Abstract
THE World Power Conference to be held at Wembley on June 30-July 12, and the Empire Mining and Metallurgical Congress held on June 3-6, cover between them a very wide field in the production, distribution, and utilisation of power. If we ignore the fascinating but remote possibilities of the utilisation of atomic energy, the future of power production in Great Britain means the future of coal production and utilisation. The great increase in the cost of coal during the last decade has brought the question of its more efficient utilisation into prominence, and the present is an appropriate time to review the situation, in order to see what scope exists for economy.
