“And I am with the doers” 
Time was when war called the ambitious and 
offered life’s great rewards. But the captains 
and the kings passed.The enduring conquests 
of our times are being made in industry. 
Through the wide open doors of General 
Electric plants and offices an army of 100,000 
men and women moves every day. Each of 
them, looking back over the road, can say: 
“Things worth while are being done in my 
lifetime, and I am with the doers.”
