Beating the power crisis. With most firms in Britain only allowed to use electricity

Beating the power crisis. With most firms in Britain only allowed to use electricity on three days a week due to the power crisis, all sorts of ingenious methods are being used to keep business going. At the Chrysler U.K. car plant in Coventry, its a case of driving on dipped headlights as the girl typists work by the light of car headlamps connected to car batteries. And down in Chatham, Kent, a hairdressing saloon has provided its assistants with battery-powered " head-lamps", similar to those used by miners. Girls in the car despatch department at Chrysler, working by the light of a car headlamp connected to a battery. January 1974 P018765
