The Industrial Program and The Engineer An Address' by Dr. L. E. Young, former Director of MSM and nowlVice~President of the Pittsburgh CO:LL Company , Delivered at Mass M eeting, October 25th

In 1828 civ il engi neering was defined in th e ch a rter of the Ins titution of Civil Engineer s of London as the a rt of directin g the g r eat so urces of power in nature fo r th e use and conven ience of ma n . I:n later year s en gin ee rin g h as been d e fin ed (New Intern ation a l Encyc lopedia) as th e practical application of science and scientific m e thods to industry. In some of the more r ecent works on special fields of en gi neering the comm er cial or eco'n omic aspects h a.ve been given g r eat prominence. One eminent en gineer says that eng in eering is "th e art of d Oing well with on e dolla r ,,,hat an y bun gler can do with two d ollars after a f ashi on."

It is proposed to show that in our industria l program the fi eld of the. engin eer will be in c r easingly broader. In dustria l r esear ch has opened new fields. Th e engin ee r m ay be asked n ot on ly to find n ew methods of prodUCing goods but ma)' he ch a llen ged' to find n ew uses for prod ucts, to find s ubstitu tes, to d etermine costs of production, a nd to s tudy the hum an elements involved in s uch industria l problem s.

The economist ha s pointed o ut that in th e g reat m a r ch of progr ess the fl U-powe rful, dri vin g motive in li fe is th e d es ire to sati sfy hum an w a n ts. One of th e ,,"orld 's g r eatest th ill ke r s Igineerin g. sn id: "1'he in centiv es of progress I have ne yer been sorry, ala re t he d es ires inh eren t in hu, .ough I fo ll owed eng-in eerin g m ~ n nature-the clesire to gr atify r o nl~' ten years, that I h ad the wnnts of t he an im a l nature, 1 engin ee rin g education.

Really , an en gineer is s hort of in finit~', ca n ne,'er be Ie who tak es m atter a nd mak es satisfi ed, as th ey g r ow by wh at ..neth in g out of it. Enginee rt hey fee d on." g has become so di versifi ed If we r efer to th e old d efiniti on tat practica ll y e verybody no,.... is of en i-;in eerin g we note that we, ore or Ie. s an en ((in eer of som e as engin eer s, are wo rkin g to .nel. I learned oni y three thin gs satisfy so m e of th ese wants a nd. , en gi nee rin g wh en I was at we kn o\\' t hat t h ese wants a re Ie Sch oo l of Mines. Those three changin g ami are incr eas ing in tin~s we r e as follows: nu mber. Industri es a r e being I ' learn ed that the shortest tran s fo r m ed contin ually due to .stance between two points is a cha nge in the markets or , in r a ight line. othe r word s, du e to our chan gI learn ed that a circumfe:'ence Som etimes these in g wants. a rin g drawn a r ound a cenchanges a r e onl y in q ua n tity a nd lal pOin t eq ually di st a nt from scmetimes in quality and d esig n. lat centra l point at eyer y point In orde r to meet these chang: the cir c le. in g condition s it i s important Prof. C.

Monroe "Cosmic Ravs" was the title of a lecture given at Parker November 25, by Dr. Robert Andrews Millikan, chairof the board and director of the Norman Bridge Labfor Physics of the California Institute of Technolrecipient of num erous m edals and honorary degrees, 1923 Nobel prize winner in physics for his m easuret of the charge of all electron and investigations in the aviolet. . l\!illikan presented the evidence as to the form ation of ese r ays in interplanetary space during the -formation of helium, nitrogen, oxygen and silicon from elemenry h ydrogen.

McLennon and Rutherford observed in 1903 that an elecI rro~,,('m p in an air-tight metal box lost its charge s lowly ; and Kolhorster in 1912, that it lost its charge several as fast at an altitude of several miles, indicating ' a coming from outside the earth. Millikan started in 1914 on the construction of an electroscope, baroand thermometer, using a photographic film and m echanism to get an automatic, continuous record three. This instrument, of a total weight of only ounces, was carried in a flight in 1922 to it height miles and temperature of-{)O C. in 115 min utes by each of 18 inches dia m eter deflated. At this burst, the other enabling the descent to be made safely in 76 minutes. The discharge of the electro scope was much greater at high altitudes a t the earth 's' surface, althongh only one-fourth that from K olhorster's results. Experiments in capand airplanes in 1922 and 1923 and on se, e r a l showed there was a ya riation in the inten sity with altitude only. . next performed a series of experim ents in snowlakes it hig h altitudes. As 10.3 meters of water h as same absorbin g capacity as the ea rth 's a tmosphere, he ed data at the 'equivalent of a number o.f different es by immersion of the electroscope to different these lakes, which, being snow-fed, are not r a Data obtained at Muir Lake, 11,800 ft. altitude, ead Lake, 5,100 ft., in Ca lifo rnia, and at two t lak es in the mountains in the Andes, and in the a nd airplanes, when compared at the sa me altiagreed ni cel y, indicating the cosmic rays a r e independent of th e geographical location of t he t es ting apparatus. As r eadings taken when the r a diation wa s coming f rom the plane of or normal to th e plane of th e Milky \Vay wer e the same, and the r eadings were the same in the day as at night, the startling fact cam e out that th e cosmic rays \"ere not produced in Still S but were produced uniformly in interplanetary space, wher e the temperature is ,ery' low and the den sity of matter minute.

In going through the atmosphere, the equ ivalent in absorbing power of 10.3 meters of water, the intenS ity of the radiation was r educed .22 each time it went through enough atmosphe re to be equivalent iu absorbing p ower to one met er of water, while in gOing do\vn one meter more the ab sorption coefficient suddenly dropped to .11, and, on going through three more meters of water, it dropped to .05. 'l'h e sudden change in ab sorption coeffiCient to .11 indicated that at that point a band of long wave length, of r elatively la.r ge absorptiol! coeffiCient , cosmic rays, have been about completely absorbed, a nd , as the r ays left cause Ii r elatively s low fall in the electroscope leaves, practically all of the cosmic ray energy is concentr ated in the long wave length bands. The d ata indicate three bands of cosmic r ays, of absorption coefficients .35, .08 and .04 from which th e physics stud.e nt can calculate the shortest wave length to be 8x10· 13 cm., which may be compared to 10·10 for the gamma rays from radioa ctive di ~integrations, 10. 8 for X-rays, and 10. 4 for visible light.

Four times the atomic weight of h ydrogen is .029 g rams more than that of h elium ; this number multiplied by the

squar e of the velocity of li ght gives the en er gy into w hich this mass h as been converted, acco rdin g to the well tested equation of Einstein; this di'i.ded by t he number of atom s in one atomic weight may be equated to the quantum constant h times the frequen cy of t h e emitted en er gy, from which the frequency, and ther efor e t he a bsorption coefficient u of the r ays may be calculated to be .30, agr eeing quite well with the experimenta l value of .35. ~he building of an oxygen atom from '1 6 H atoms wo uld gIve cosmic rays of u .074 and in building N from 14 H would give u .086, the mean of th ese being in exact 'c oincidence with the u of .08 found. The spectr oscope shows the presence of these elements throughout interplanetar y space.

Cr eation of 0 from 4 He would giYe 'ri se to a gamma radiation detectable in th e upper atmosph ere, som ew hat indicated by th e high balloon-flight data. Combin ation of 28 H . to give one s ilicon atom would g ive a ray of u .041, arrreeing with the experimenta l va lue of .04. The formati~n of iron a toms in interst ellar space wa s indicated al s o.

As the building ,of Ca and K would give rays of u only a little different than that for the rays from the formation of Si, which would be a lso less in ten se due to their relative abundancies being less. and th e formation of ca rbon from h ydrogen would Similarl y just slightly affect th e .08 value, and the relative ab unda n cies of oth er atoms in the heavens is small, evidence a s to th e formation of H e, N, 0 , Si and Fe in interplaneta r y space 'is' rathe r gOOd. The building up of an atom by addition of a h ydrogen or helium nucleus to the nucleu s of another atom, as , in formation of carbon from boron or oxygen f r om carbon would not liberate these highly 'penetrating rays, but gamma r ays, so that Millikan's evidence is again st the probability of occurrence .in space of this atom-construction process.

Millikan points out that, as atomic hydrogen is beiu g u sed up in interstellar space in forming these atoms, the condensation of radi ant ener gy into the positi'-e and negatiYe electrons, (and combination of a pos. with a n eg. electr on to form a hydrogen atom) appa r ently occurs in space, as otherwi se long ago this h yd r ogen would have been used up.

So we haye the conversion of m a tter in a s tar into r adi ation, maintaining the tempera tu r e of the ~ tar, and th e conver sion of r adiation back into matter in space.

Cosmic rays, detected even below 58 meter s (190 ft.) of water, are extr emely penetrating compared with X-rays and the gamma rays f rom. r adioactive material as radium. which are stopped by a few me t er s of water, All possess t he property of ioni zin g mate rial they come in con tact w ith, a s , for exa mple, th e cosmic r ays ioni zed th e air s urronndin g the leaves of Millika n 's electr oscope, caUSing di sch a r ge and falling toge ther of the leaves. Th e medi cal effects of X-ra~'s and ga mma r ays, \\"hich are due to their ionizing characteris tics, are we ll known . Simil a r effects of th e cosmic r ays would be expected, although the in ten sitv of s uch rad iations is extrem ely small compa r ed \Tith th~se n ear an X-ra y bulb. Th e total ener gy of th e cosmi c ray s comin g into t h e earth is n ea rly exactly one-tenth the total energy (light and heat) of sta rlight. 'l;he effect of continu ous exposure to these ra:l' s, (and th e possibility they may ha ve penetrated to th e ea rth' s s urface at tim es in the past with a greater ' intenSity, tak en in conn ection with experiments as Muller 's on th e change in type of flies on exposure to X-rays) m ay have been important on the develop ment of a nimal a nd plant li fe in our world. 'l'he r eader d eSirin g furth er in fo rm a tion is r eferred in particular to a series of l)aper S by Millilm n and co-wo rker s in the Phys ical R ev iew .

Homec<?ming A Successful One Th-e continu ed in crease in interest in the Homecoming was manifested this year by a splendid attendance-perhaps the .best of any Homecoming the s~hool has held in a number of year s. The old grads, takmg ad,a nta ge of the splend id road s~'stem which has been de,eloped through this section, showed up to greater extent than they ha,e in a long time.

I The morning of October 19 was spent in ,isiting old acquaintances and .making new acquaintances on the c~ m­ pus. At 2 :30 in the afternoon the a lumni met at Jacklmg Field to watch the Miner football team take McKendree into camp to the tune of 73 to 0. The evening of October 19 was spent at a very en joyable banquet h eld at the new Pierce-Pennant Terminal. After the banquet, with · Pem Gordon actin ~ as toastmaster, many of the old grads displayed their forensic ability for the delight and e~i1ication of the visitors. Among the orators of the occaSlOn were President 'J. K. Walsh, '17, Webster Groves; Robert L yon s, ex '17, K ansas City; V. H. McNutt, '10, San Antonio; Ch as.

During the last few year s more and more a ttenti on h as ' heen paid to the p.evelopment of n ational" industria l poli-and' a s yo u a ll know, the engineering profession h as an important part in this development. our personal view of indus try is ver y indiviWe sh ould endea'i'or to take a broad view and true relation of' the fa ctor s in national industr y. note a few striking Illustrations of progress of in1 programs as r eco rd ed in histor y, for sever a l counhave gi"l" en serious consideration to industri a l probon ,a national scale.

In German y, ' following the Franco-Prussian wa r , there ,ca m e to the a tiona l leaders a vision · of what Germany might become, though her n atura l resotirces wer e. In order to achieve these ends a far' sig hted .program was und ertaken; thi s in cluded general 'and technical ' education; thorough di Scipline, r ecognit ion of labor and socia l problems, and in tensive r esea r ch directed to utilize the n atura l r esources ill and a dj a cent to Germany. Although German y was misguid ed by Mili ta ri sts, the industria l policy formulated ha!f a cen tur y ago i s now bringing r esults that astoni sh her neighbors.

An eminent French sociologist said: "It is technical education, patiently pur sued; con scientiously aSSimilated, which has been for German y a n arm more powerful than the spirit of enterprise of the .English and the artistic , feeling of the French, She owes to it h er admirable co mmercial and industrial advance."

Recently Dr. H. C. Parmelee, Editorial Director of the McGr aw-Hill Publishing Compan y, called attention to th e organization in Germany sin ce the war of the " I. G." or the In teress en Gemeinschaft ·w hich means "community of inter ests" . This- corpor a tion h a d its origin in the close il1terrelation of a group of ch emical industries, H e says the finfs h ed product of one pla nt ' often becomes. t he material fo r another while its product may in turn u seful to a third pla nt. " This common inter est in Is, processes, and products h as led t o the estabof a mammoth industry ' ca pa ble of supply ing 35 ,cent, of the world's . n eed s for d yes and synthetic f ertilzer materia ls." .

The leaders

of Japan had a Vl SlOn for t h eir cO lln t r y,- th ey appr oached their problems on a national basis.

In our own land som e of our industri a l a nd economic problems wer e considered from the n ation a l viewpoint I;ly the lea de r s of the earl y ·periods. If t ime were availab le it would be worth while to re,iew our n ational policy w ith r ega rd to the disposition of la nds of the public do'm a in, with the la nd grants to railroads, pub~ic schools a nd colleges, and the sale of tracts to individuals at nominal prices; the d evelopment of our ' immigr ation p olicy which permitte('l practically unliI;l1ited admission origimilly I!-nd h as r estricted a dmiss ion in r ecent year s; our policy in r egard to public work to r elieve un employm ent ;- the tari~ system and the s ub sidizing of -industries. vVith a ll of these you are more or less familiar.

The platforms of the leacling political parties h ave set up specific programs _ which if enacted into legislation would con s titute a n actual industrial policy. Normally legisla tion - r epresents a compromise and is based upon condition s that have d eveloped. As en gin eer s we a r e in'teres t ed in designing, if you please, programs a nd policies which should be forerunners of legislation. While we a r e intel:ested in iooking forwa rd we can work succeSsfully only as we use ad van t ageou sry the experience of this a nd other generations: • ' There has been publish ed within the last f ew month s a two-voluPle work entitled "ReCent Economic Changes in the Uniteel States." ,A reviewer says : " In the swelling , tide of literature about American life a nd industry we ' know of no ', more concise a nd compreh en sive statement tha n here appears." ,The work is a n outgrowth of th e President's Conference on - Unemplo.,lI1ent of i921 which was r espon sible for several n ationa l s urveys in cluding those on lllle.mployment, business cycles, and seasonal operation in the construction industries. 'J'he survey of recent economic changes, begun in J a nuary 1928, is d escribed as an "analysis of post-war d evelopments in American economic life, particularly, those s ince the d epreSSion of 1920 ~ 1921."

Undoubtedly your instructors on many occasions' will r efer you t o these authoritatiYe volumes a nd certain of the chapters should be r ea d a nd disc ussed by the upper classmen, The title " R ecent Economic Ch anges" suggests two questions-first,-" IVh a t ch a n ges other than . economic m ay occur?" and second- " What great economic changes ha ve occurred that h ave not been r ecent ?" In contrast w ith economic ch a n ges there h ave been socia l, political a nd r eligiou s ch a n ges. Probably you h ave r ea d a g r eat deal about the so-ca lled Industria l R evo lu tion which followed th e fir st u se of stea m as a motive power.

L eis ure a nd prosperity of one class a lways meant t he slaver y a nd d egr a d a tion of th e r emainder of society. Th e building of the pyramids was possible only on acco unt of the m a nua l labor of sla"l"es; the Greek philosoph er s called the workm a n a livin g m achin e, h e was liter a lly a machine a nd he was genera lly a -slave; Aristotle defended s laver y d escribing the slave as an a nimated tool a nd claiming that slaver y wa_s necessar y in order that the ruling class might h aVe leis ure for stat ec r a ft , a rt, and liter ature. The con-s truction of the great t emples and the building of the Roman highways a nd aqueducts wer e the r esult of slave labor'; the fe udal system, with its attendant s u b jugation of labor likewise m a d e possible m any beautiful buildings in . Europe. Prior to this present industria l age the poets, , th e a rtists, and others m a d e their contribution s to civilization becau se leis ure was m ade possible by the cheap labor of s laves and peasants. The honrs of labor were . long and th e st andard s of living for this labor wer e lowunbelievably low as compared with those of today.

atartled the industria l world in 1914 with the a nn oun cement of a minimum wage that seemed to be impractica l, there was surprise an d amusement in some quarters. This ann oun cement cam e, not on account of a strike or labor difficulties but as the r esult of' a decision to attr act to the Industrv ~en who were good workers ana who wer e amtious •to earn more mon eY and thus improve t heir stan<lard of li vin'" and a lso lJ eca use Mr. -Ford r ealized t hat the ,Ilreatest llnd:v'eloped market for a utom obiles in the United States was the wage-earning group.

It has been said that .Hfoi-tune. will a wait him w ho can tap th e new r eserv oir s of spending m on ey by producing and selling what t h e masses wilL .buy. All our n ew conspicu ous fortunes are built up in this way .a nd not ~y caterin g to the rich . In this country th e power to buy IS In the pockets of the masses." Ford r ealized that if there was to be mass productIon there must be a sales program adequate ' to move t h e outpu L " ' . . .

'I'he effect of the Ford wage policy ha s been natIOnal III scope anq with a r ed uction in the number working h?~I:S week and t he r evi sion of -the budget of many fa mIlIes h as been an increased {lemand for: low-priced cars. a mbition of the Ford COPlpany to provide :'Economical -Transpoi:tation for All the P eople" appar ently is now extend ed to include the French and oth er Europeans. . .

In a recent editoi-ia l in the J>hiladelphia Press the st ateis made that France is indignant because H enry }i'onl, 0to establish factories in · Europe, has asked the ternational La bor Office of the League of Nations t o in-vestigate living costs in the cities, so that .he may know how much to pay his worker s on a scale eqUlvalent to that h olds in hi s American plants, in t erms of "r eal" The Industria l J ournal of P a ris r esents our "inal imperia lism". In .reply the edi tor of the Philadelphia Press says: "The fast turnover of mon ey and g~o d's in America means a high level of living for alL Inv rted to a place on an American-plan payroll, the worke.rs · of other co un t ri es will be devoted indeed to "their old n atlOn a l·Ism if t h ey show preference for h omel a nd culture at a cost of forerroing the ch eap and abundant products of m ass production~ The F ren ch econ omists are not fighting American industria l ingen uity a lone. They a r e trying to stave off the universal desire fo r the most comf ort and 'pleasure fo r the least money."

Having succeeded not only in making people h er e want low-priced ca r s but in making it possible for t hem to ~)Uy cars Mr . Ford shrewdly a ppear s to ha ve ta ken the fir st step~ towa rds saying to European labo r "if. you will bu?

Ford cars, I will help you get wages suffiCIent to permIt you to o'yn and oper ate a car ."

It should not be infe rred th at our manufacturers can go into European countries and magically r evolut ioni ze E1uropean markets and labor conditions. L. D. Ricketts III a recen~ 'adclress said: "If Amed can capital sh ould buy and establish. a European enterprise could It at once in t r oduce ()ur methods and through capita l inyestment dispense with half or mo·r e of t h e labor formerly employed ? Surely n ot nntil frn . outlet could be provided for t he labor liberated lest it" be destr oyed . . Surel~T fir st, or at least in parallel, come incr eased demand and t he establishment of new industries to absorb the liberated labor. Improvement in effi cien cy in Europe 'must com e more slowly a nd th e con.suming ' capacity or the power to purch ase the increased output must move in parallel with an incr ease in labor efficiency.- The maintenance and increase ·of a verage output per. man is all-important to th e attainment of our m a terial comfort becau se it i s a measure of the mat~rial -comfort of the average individual."

Without doubt the m O~'ement to improve the standard of 'livin g of the working class in the Un ited States r eceived its first and gr eatest impetus from H enry Ford: Not only h as h e had the coui'age of hi s convictions bllt he has dem o onstrated th e soundness .of hi s doctrine. In J a nuary 1929 gave employment to 130,131 men at the River Rouge, Highland Park, and Lincoln -plants. To thi s army of m en and their dependents h e ha s brought in many cases a n ew

and larger opportuni ty in life and a high er standard of li ving. According to Mr. Ford "th e family life is h ealthier, workm en go out-of-door s, go on picn ics, have ti.me to see their children and play with th em. 'l'hey have time to see more, do m ore,-anrl, incidenta lly, buy nior e. This stimulates busiIless and incr eases pr osperity, and in gener a l econ omic cycle the mon ey passes through t h e 'industr y again a nd back into the workman 'S pocket. " :Mor eover, the methods established by his Comp any have r esulted in ' many changes in Americap industr y . So m an y tim es we think of it all a s a wondel:ful manu.facturin g process in the produCtion -of a good' ca r : "It includes t hi s of course; but the outstancling .thing t hat i s causing a r evolution which may be called properly the "standard of living r evo lution" is the far-sighted policy in esta blishing an industrial system that is aimed to wipe out poverty and improve standa rd s of living. .

It should be k ept ·in mind .that thi s m ovem ent was started

by Ford in 1914. The 'W orld ,Va l' stimulated it in two ';ays,-first by the tremendous demand for goods, the . incr eased u se of machinery, · and high er wages fo r the time, and second,-beca u se som e of t h e m en who enter ed th e servi ce had created In them a destr e for a higher standard of living ' due in part to f acilities placed a t their di sposal at t raining camps, ' partly .to the actual training at these ca mp s, and partly on account of association with .men accustomed to a. higher standard of living than "they themselves had enjoyed previously.

'I'he purchase' of automobiles, gasoline, and tires h as n ot impoverish ed the country, Mr. A. R Erskine, President· of ·the Studebaker Corporation, ·stated r ecently ·that in the period between 1921 and 1927, when a u tomobiles increased r egistry from 10,463,000 to 23,226,000 the savings d ep osits rose f r om $4,726,000,000 to $24,096,000,000, w it h bUIlding a nd loan association assets jumping from $1,137,000,000 to $6,334,000,000, and ordinary and ind u stria l insuran ce advancing from a total of $20,520,000,00"0 to $74,492,000,000.

Some. of our statistician s p oint with fear t o t he number of units of this or that device we a r e installing and warn producers that there i s a "saturation point". In "Recent Economic Changes" th e statement is m ade that "we seem only to have touch ed the · frin ge of our potentialities" for in 1928 apparently a la r ge percentage of t he h omes wired for electriCity h ad electric fl at-irons; less than on e-third had washing m achin es; slightly over one-third had vacuum cleaners; less than 5 per cent 'h a d electrical r efrigerator s.

On J a nuary 1, 1928 there were 7,500,000 r a dio sets in u se, yet about 70 per cent of American horiles a r e still without t he radio. 'l' he saturation pOint is still fa r off in many lines and human demands a r e increasing eyer y day.

'I'h e Commer ce Yearbook points out tha.t in our advan cing industri a l efficien cy a r e largely huinan factor s, as di st in guish ed fr om natural f acto r s, an d en umerates amon g these human f actor s ed ucation and resear Ch, mach iner y and power, mass production, elimination of waste, high wages, a nd the attitude of l ab~ r. With t he · foundation now being laid at Washington for sympath etic a nd in telligent cooper ation between government and business the industrial ' outlook is brighter than ever.

The engineer: is playing an importa n t part in t he industrial world today . . In an y nation a l progra m that lllay be undertaken, the procedUl'e of getting ' the facts, analyzing the d ata, fo rmula ting a plan, a nd then executing it in a for ceful, logical way will be fo llowed. In his book Oll t he "New Leader ship in Industry", Lewissohn r efers to the "industrial m elodrama". From the engineer 's point of view there is much less of melodrama in industry than former1y"; there are well-established principles and laws in science 'and engineering, ther e are well-ordered plans of bUSIness procedure, and there are r ecognized prinCiples of lllanagement. The ' en gineering p~ofess ion has done much to or ganlze ·industr y. The studies in scientific m anagement and of waste in industry, the budgetting a nd sch eduling of construction a nd production" ur.e contribution s of the highest type and have established : engineering firmly in the industrial world. . .

goyernment, the organization of industry and the right of the individual to own property. At the present time our \v orkmen are recei\'ing communistic literature from val" ious sources. The following quotations are from the con· stitution of an organiza tion which is sOliciting membership a mong American workers: " W e feel the need of a powerful, militant, and class· conscious organization that will embrace every wag e ea rn er. Our organization declares that the interests of the employers and those of the workers have nothing in common but are diametrically opposed to one another. The history of all of the workers of the country, i s that of an incessant struggle between these two classes-the class struggle. This organization rejects th e policy of collaboration with the bosses and will pursue a policy of militant struggle to attain its objects.

This organizlltion shall affiliate with the class-conscious labor movement of the world, and declare ' adherence to the -program, principles, and statutes of the Red International of Labor Unions. All members shall -recognize May Day (first of May) as International Labor Day, -and shall celebrate this day with the cl:;tss-conscious world proletariat."

These doctrines have been imported from Europe where so-called class-consciousness has been developed.

They mu st be heard and answered thoughtfully. In this country with limited immigration there is a <j.ecreasing likelihood that the conditions which brought about the present situation in certain countries in Europe can ever develop here . .

One of our leading business journals carries the following at the top of its editorial column: "All the wild ideas of unbalanced agitators the' world o,er in their ignorant and pitiable quest for happiness through re,olution, confiscaticm of property, and crime, cannot overthrow the eternal truth that the one route to happiness through propert~' or goveniment is over the broad and open highwa3' of service. And service alwa ys means industry, thrift, respect for authority, and recognition of th e rights of others."

To r eview the Situation, it -tional progra-m has changed face problems which require cooper a tion of v ari o n ~ cies. Our federal government is showing comm ,'11 leadership in organizing such cooperation.

The -engineer who proposes to tak e an active part ill industrial progTam -must be trained thoroughly in th e a amentals of engineering, but he should be versed a business p:t:actice and the theories of economics and i try in ordel' .that he may take his place in the ' r anks of profession not simply as anoth er man on the pay-roll a s one who expects to contribute something in the p:larch of progress.

An eminent European statesman said man y yea r s fi llM · "But by material mean s alone a nation can neither III II I , tain' its place in the world n or advapce it. Physical, m nr"l~ and mental health are still the greatest nation al riches. state is not a commercial comiJany,-it must sub ordill'" its economic policy to national policy as a whole, mu t n.f so that not only - the present industrial welfa r e of lino ·nation . is increased, bltt th a t, above all, the future sO lilld development of the nation is a ss ured. " The engineers have played an importa nt p a rt in f ortU Itlating the industrial policies of thi s gen erati on. You hilI' chosen to enter the engineering profession when the wh(,I" \vorld is expecting from it leadership of the high est tYI'"' you are to be congratulated on your choice and on YOll f opportunity.

Generally we subscribe to this sound advice. The thinking citizen believes that libert~T and prosperity can be p erpetuated only by the loyal support of our government, laws, and institutions.

The idea th a t ever ything must be reformed is losing its popularity in thi s country and revolutionary doctrines are not m eeting with a general respon se fOI' three very important r ea sons; (1) the American workman and the farmer a r e h om eow n ers, and a ny who are not hope to be, (2) in r ecent years the policy of encouraging employes to own s t ock in a corpora tion ha s resulted in developing a spirit of kindly inter est in the management problems of a cOl'pora tioll in stead of indifference or ho stility, and (3) th e cheapenin g of good s through m ass production has m a de it possible for th e lo west p aid workman to impro.ve his standard of living.

During th e ,Vorld War a s a r esult of cooper a tion of . the leaders of industry and the worker s with th e government as tounding increa ses were made in productivity . 'Vher ea s prev iously there may -have been a holding back of some of the fa ctor s in production , when th e appeal was m a de on th e basis of patrioti sm th e worker s at home gave th eir best eff orts just the same a s the ' m en at the front gave th eirs.

worth your while. The m an who follows the circumference of a circle a nd i s a lways th e sa me dista nce from that centra l poin t does not amount to ver y much because he does not stand for an ything in the world. And the fel low who travels that zigzag line is just as crooked as it is, a nd the less yo u have to do with him, the better off you a r e.

I have a pplied these principles to politics. 'l'he politicia n who goes a long the shortest line between two poin ts is oue in whom you can put your trust. The politician who follows' the circumference you ha d better let alon6< and of course, the fellow who fo llows the zigzag line is ver y lia ble to be put in J effer son City at the other end of Capitol Avenue from th~ Capitol, before he gets through. So the man in politics must be som ewhat of an engineer in order to find ou t just exactly how to keep away "from the circumference and to dodge the crooked line. People talk about politicians and they say that it is a term we use in a derogatory way. Politicians are just as essentia l to this world as engin e~ rs. If we did not h ave an y politicians we would not have ,any politics, and if we had n o politics, we would not have any government. The better the politics, th e more interes t each of us takes in politics, and the more honest effort we put into politics, the better things come out of it in tile sha pe of governmen t f or the people. '< You know they ,generall-y talk about an en gineer as a man who surveys things. , Ever ything in t he ,world now has come to be surveyed. 'You survey your gi rl before you marry her , and you survey how fa r you can keep away from home after you marry her. The fact of the matter is it keeps you busy all the time s urveying somethin g.

Unfortunately for me, the Governor appointed me on the Commission that 'he called the - Survey Commission . I never could imagine' why he appainted me except that he needed an engineer, a nd some fellow told him that -I was an engineer. That is the only way I ha ve been able . to figure out how I got on. We have been surveying ever since I got on that Comm{ssion. We surveyed the School of Mines, the State UniverSity, the T eachers Colleges, the eleemosyna r y institutions and the penal in stitutions. We have surveyed 26 institutions in the State of Missouri, and I am afraid tonight that if I would tell you the r esult of that survey in so me of these instituti ons, you would blush with shame beca use you are Missourians and love Missouri. I a m gOing to give you just a few little instances in tha t survey.

At St. Joseph, we have . State H ospita l, Number Two. There a r e 2200 people in that hospita l. The hospita l was built to accomodate 1500 people. These poor unfortunates can not help themsel'es. They are put there, and if those in ch ar ge keep crowding more and more into the rooms, they cannot protest because if they do, nobody would hear them. The only thin g they can do is do the ver y best they ca n. We pride ourselves that we are the greatest state in the union , and yet · that condition exists in Missouri.

There are nurses sleeping in the basement of that hospital in places that if you had an old-time "Cha mp Clark" h ound dog, and he was worth $50, you wouldn't let him sleep in those r ooms. These are real facts. I see a gentlemen in this a udience, who, I believe could corroborate these statements. - Ther e 'is the same condition at the Fulton asylum, a nd at Nevada and Farmingtori. When our lo,ed ones happen t o go to one of these asylums they are just about locked up for life. They tell 'me that about thirty per cent of these cases are _curable, but Misso)lri does not spend one dolla r to try to cure th ese unfortun ates who' are sent ther e. The state survey showed that a nd other things I migh t call to your attentian tb a t are equa lly bad.

The gentleman who has charge of that particular part of the survey was befor e his appointment never in one of these asylums in his life, but h e is one of th e prominent business men in St. Louis. H e owns an equity in the Famous-Barr building in St. Louis. H e was · shocked. H e said, "Why didn't I know this years ago-?" It is not my

11

fault and it is not yours that he did not know it. H e was awakened to this fact, that Missouri, with all her wealth should provide some way so that our loved ones thus afflicted could be placed under the .obser vation of doctors who d esire to cu r e them and r eturn them to th eir homes. instead of .keeping them a ll their lives. We a re gOing to propose two hospita l buildings, one on the east an d one on th e west , a nd a n effo rt will be made on the part of l\fisso uri to cnre and r etul'll these people to their homes. We are told that about thirty per cent of these cases a re caused from se me bodiiy defect tha t mig-h t be cu r ed. They cannot pay any attention to this at St. J oseph or Fulton, a nd little at Farmington and Neva da. They are doing th e best they can. Somebody else is at fault. Four docto rs have charge of 2200 patients at St. Joseph . Out .of that comes t he Superintend ent, who , has charge of th e business of th e institution.

Yo'u know, if you talk to Dr. Fulton a little while, he will talk to you about the needs of this institution. I have heard it so much that th e Doctor thought I thought it was ap old story about his troubles. H e does not look at it · ' with the same eyes I d o. . I look a t what tlley have !lOW and what they h ad wnen I was h ere. I say that it is so , much better than when I was her e, but the Doctor and I do not look at things just alike. The Doctor says he does not talk much, but he has talked to me so much he h as talked me into belie'l'ing what he believes, and I am trying to picture the School of Mines as it will be ten year s from now-Qne of th e gr eat est- institutions of learning in the United States. I want to see it really stand up at the top, and this Survey Commission h as r ecommended a lot of good things that will come to th e School of ]\1:ines if their progl'alli is carried out.

One of th e great things th e commission is studying is an equal opportunity to ever y boy and girl in the state to secure a fair education. Some people say that we ought to give ever y boy and girl a n eqna l opportunity. We cannot give tlle boy in the country' the sam e opportunity as the boy in the town of R olla, or the City of St. Louis, because these schools are built on a higher plane ' a nd the people are paying out gr eat sums of m one~' to make them better .

R olla does not stand on the same scale as st. Louis, a nd K an sas City is ha rdly . on the same plane as St. Louis yet these cities are dOing everything th ey can. In K~n sas" City, five million dollars worth of bonds were voted a few days ago. K an§as City is g rowing so fast that they ca n 't build buildings fa s t enough to take care of the new children who a re coming in.

H er e is Missouri starving the Univer Sity, T eacher s Colleges and the School of Mines-h olding them down to the lowest. notch. Dr. Brooks, Presid ent of the UniverSity, is w~rrYlllg about how he can get along on what he has r eceIved, and yet that is all the Legislature could give him.

The Legislature h as only a cer ta in amollllt of money. I have been on the Appropriations Committee in the Senate for t he last fo ul' sessions, an d it is a hard job with tha t Committee to take t be m oney th ey h a'l'e a nd spread it out to t a ke car e of a s man y places a s th ey must. We cannot take it and give it a ll to one place. 'We have to scatter it out a nd when it gets to the outer edge, it is so thin you can hardly see it.. The institu tions ha'l'e to live on that a nd get a long on it. 'l'hey came up two yea r s ago and wanted m oney to do certa in things. I tbought then they should have it, - and still thinl~ they should, but I did not kn ow where the money was to come f r om. Dr. Fulton a nd Dr. Brooks coulcf not t ell us where the mon ey was to come from. Things h ad to go undone, This Survey Commission is trying to look ten years into the future. The program now calls fo r a n expenditure for school buildings-amo untin g to forty-four million dollars.

'This is not a very staggering sum. It would be a blessing if they had it tonight. It is an impossibility, we a ll kn ow that, to levy a tax to get forty -four million dolla r s in one year. We are not going to try i t. That is just in buildings alone that I am talking about in the ten year period. A little over f OUl' million dollars a yea r. During some of these yea r s, the sum would be a little larger and some a little smaller.

MSM ALUMNUS The Engineer

and Politi~s ,

(Continued from Page 12) Did you ever r ead in the Good Book that t his wa s m ade by God, but nothing in it was ever finish? NOt1ling \yas finished-this world is not finished. You ow, that is one thing abo lIt an engineer , nothing that an ever do es is finished. He , lays out a railroad e, they put up the grade, they put on the ties, ane! the and then the trains come _along, they 'build the stations. and the first t hing you kliow, t!ley. find they need hea,ier steel, ties and new engines and cars, and so this thing that the engineer has laid ont is never finished.

The sa m e thing is true about our road s.. I rod e over number forty, which is supposed to be the "brag" road in ~so nri, t he other day, a nd I later told some of the p eoe at home that number forty was an obsolete road. Onr highway department would not build number forty. as it was built if they were building it today, and yet It has only been down about jour years. Progress and pushing Il.head, that is the beauty about an engineer. He bores a hole in the mountain and it is never finished . The goal [s just a foot or two ahead of ):linl. In performing expedIll?nts in chemistry, they a lways think, "Tomorrow I will find it! " No matter what -kind of an engineer, it is always tomolTow, I am going ' to' find the thing that i s caiu;incr this trouble. That makes it so fine for the engineer.

H~ lives in hopes that tomorrow is the great day in his life, wh en he is going to discover something. I talked to lady doctor who is here at your school trying to find the bu cr that causes trachoma. SlJe said she would find it tom;'rrow: I hope she I hope the great things in life will be foimd tomorrow. .

Just in my short life what wonderful things the engineer s ha,e fOlmd ! I sit at h orne at night and hear the voices fr om New York coming' through the air. I look up at the electric lights. I r emember: the first fellow who had a light in our town. It was a dandy. A brass can with a lamp chimney on it. After it burned five minutes, you had to light a match to find where it was. It is wonderful what has been done. Somebody' is actually afraid that automobiles are go ing out of style in the next four or five yea r s. I r ead a few days ago where a fellow in Germany says ' he has invented a plane that won't come down . If I can get one that won 't fall , I will get one, but I ,va nt to be sure that it won' t,fal l. But it is coming.

I saw a feUo",' the other day who is the smartest fellow and I think the biggest fool I e"er saw. He is gOing to t ry to ' locate sta tic. I said, "All right, I will give ' yo u four dollars mos t any time YOll will find static." I have an idea what static is. I don't .know but what th at comes from away over there. It may be the Great Engineer of the Uni,erse talking to us in a way that we have not learned yet how to ca tch. It may be that it comes from heaven I do not know. Wouldn't it be great if we foi.md that that was God's way of talking to u s !

You do not know what is going to happen in the world.

I do not .. I th ought fifty years ago that I was goin g to be one of two things. I thought fir st I wa s going to be the greatest engineer in th e world. About that tim e Eads built the bridge in St. Lonis, and the jetties at New Orleans, and I thought Eads would ha,e to take a back seat in three or four years. Next -I thought I wou lel like to be Professor of Mathematics at the SChool of Mines. I wanted the job only for a bout three or four months. I , wanted to lick about a dozen fellow s 'on the campu s. But the Board of curators didn 't think I would fill the job, and they got somebody- else: Perhaps it was just as well. Then I wanted to help build a railroad a nd I did h elp ' build it.

They have improved it- since.

Then I went out surveying one day (I wish I could tell you all this story). I saw a girl and I thought she was about the p r ettiest thing I ever saw . and she was. I said, " Now, lOok here, I am going to keep surveyin g you until I get thin gs fixed up some way or other." I persuaded her after a long time, and so we got married. Then here was the question. I had been thumping around on t he railroad and nevel: kne,,, where I would be any night, and I said, "Wouldn't a nice little home with that girl be the fine st

will.

thing on earth?" I thought, "I believe it would ." So I go t a little h om e and I quit en gineering, except that I a m still su r veying. I am not telling you that now so you boys won 't m a rry, becau se I think that is the greatest thin g in the world. I don ' t wa nt to say anything to stop any of the weddings, but that was m y conclusion , and that was what I did.

'Th en I got into it. I did th e biggest foo l thing you ever heard of, I got mixed up with a newspaper. I don 't know whether Ch arley Woods -i s h ere or not, but h e could tell you that is a pretty foo lish thing to do. Then I did S9mething that was another fooli sh thing to do, . I got mixed up in politics, and actually ran for office. 'l'hat is the biggest fool thing anybody ever die!. But the people of ' Missouri were nice to me and elected me to office, and then I got to thinking they must think I was somebody. I got through with that, a nd about that time we got a n ew Goverom', and he did the funniest thing. He put me in the -penitentiary and kept me there for four and a half years. I ' was sur,eying all that time-surveying men , m en, men! There is nothing better in this world than men.

OI:ooked men, dirty m en, m en to wh'o m it didn ' t m ake much difference \,'h eth er th ey would shoot you or say how-doyou-cio. I had a nice time th er e, and got alon g very well.

But Goyernor Gard'n er ·was about the hardest task master I ever saw. The' penitentiary h ad been lOSing money, and he wanted it to .pay for itself. I got thi'ough with it and made 'a little money for them in the four yea rs I was tl1er~.

I ' went h ome and tho ught I was going to stay with my wife and have a good time, and th en played the fool again and ran for the Senate. It is a nice place. You have a. good time 'sometimes, and sometimes ~' ou don't. I would not advise an yone to run for the Senate or any oth er office.

That is my observation of years. Some think it is a nice job, but ther'e is a good deal of gri ef attached to jt. You try to be nice to your friends and ever ybody, and make friends with everybody. You can't be the man on the circle because if 'you do, you are always in trouble. You can't be th e man on th e zigzag line because you will alwa~' s be in trouble.

You have to go the straight path and be honest with everybody. If you are not, you had better not be in anything, politics, business or whatever it might be.

I have now worried yo u for oyer ·an hour, and 'scattered aroun d through a little of everything, but I would like to sav a little more. I a m a native born j\Hsso urian and very, ye;:y proud of my state, very, very proud of ·my h ome county and m~' home town-I \Ta S born in th at town , and expec t to die a nd be buried in th at town. Each one of us ought t o love Missouri. If \Te do, let u s a ll j oin together in eyery way that we can, under eyen' condition, and under a ll circumsta nces, to t r y to make her th e greatest in a ll the galaxy- of . states. It takes tea m \\"ork. IVe ha,e to make a suney of things and find the thin gs to do. You lmow, just the other day I r ead how the President of the United States called in h elp. H e started to make a surTev of what the railroad s and th e business m en could do, a n'd has been at it all thi s week. Why? He is an engineer. The President of Mex ico \vho "\Vas elected last week is ·an engineer. :Mexico need s surveying, and the United States n eeds sur,eying, and Misso uri n eed s surveying.

But after the suney 'is m a de, we should all join hands together with one long pull and let Missouri be up on the highest place, so that ever y Missourian may be very proud of his state. You know that great expression that· we h ea r so often, that God is the architect - of the ·world. I do not like that expression . An a rchitect is a man who has put a plan on paper. Some contractor has taken the plans a nd built the house. and completed it-put on the topmost brick. I would rather think of God as the Great . EngIneer, and h e ha s taken ' this ma tter-I do not know wher e it came . from~and form ed the earth , and from that day to this, it h as been cooling and spreading and dOing thi s and that, and He ,put man h er e that he might help a t this work that H e had ·to clo. I love to think of Him as an Engin ee r finishing the j ob, ilDd we the servants who are laying out this pI-an an d that plan until some day in that millennium we will have a great finished work, and God as the En gineer will say, " Well don e, my good a nd faithful servant."
