Electric network plan to modernize U S transport and industry
Secretary Wall briefs President on a Geological Survey plan to build a vast 320 kV transmission grid from Boston to Washington. The system would entail 970 miles of lines and five 110 kV feeder lines, with 1200 miles of current 33 kV wiring repurposed for local distribution, at an estimated 1930 cost of 104 million dollars and total investment of about 1.11 billion.

The plan aims to boost American labor productivity through electrification, appealing to financiers, railroad executives, utilities, and industrial leaders.
