The direct current is the old way of operating, and is more expensive, while the alternating is the new way of harnessing electricity and one that is very much complicated. In fact, the qualities of alternating current are not all known of. as it has only been for a few years that its use has been established. There are but five or six interurbans in the United States that use alternating, and it has been a perplexing "question to many of the manufacturers of car equipments as to how to construct the .electrical mechanism of the car in order to receive the heavy voltage characteristic to the new system.
