statement  to  the   Chicago  Housing  Authority 

by 

Henry  T,  He  aid 
President  of  Illinois  Institute  ol"  Technology 
May  1,1950 

Y/hen  Illinois  Institute  of  Technology  v^as  formed  10  years  ago  thjrough  a 
consolidation  of  Arm.our  Institute  of  Technology  and  Levels  Institute^  a  major 
initial  problem  revolved  around  the  location  of  the  new  institution. 

Armour  Institute  was  located  on  Chicago's  central  south  side,  once  one  of 
the  city's  proudest  residential  districts.   Years  of  neglect  and  the  shifting 
social  and  economic  tides  had  blighted  the  area  and  reduced  it  to  slioms,. 

But  there  were  advantages : 

luost  important^  it  was  centrally  located,  within  easy  reach  of  both  day  and 
evening  students.  It  could  not  be  isolated  geographically  from  these  for  v.'hom  its 
educational  progra:n  was  intended. 

It  had  a  m.uch-needed,  though  inadequate ^  rhysical  plant,  v/hich  could  serve 
as  a  core  around  which  to  build  an  outstanding  educational  institutiono 


Page  two  -  Chicago  Housing  Authority 

Its  location  in  the  heart  of  one  of  the  nation's  largest  slum  areas  pre- 
sented a  challenge  for  urban  reclamation  that  sparked  the  imagination  of  its 
trustees  and  staff. 

They  had  faith  in  the  future  of  Chicago,  and  they  saw  a  chance  to  contribute 
something  tangible, 

£o  Illinois  Tech  decided  to  stay  on  the  south  side,  and  it  made  its  deci- 
sion deliberately. 

immediately  it  began  to  rebuild.   In  a  decade  Illinois  Tech  has  built  11 
educational^  research,  and  housing  structures.   It  serves  8,000  day  and  evening 
students.   It  employs  a  staff  of  2,000  persons <,   It  has  expanded  its  campus  from 
7  to  8^  acre So 

It  has  becomiO  one  of  the  nation's  leading  centers  of  technological  education 
and  research,  and  it  has  done  so  without  public  funds,  subsidies,  or  financial  as- 
sistance from  city  agencies <- 

As  it  has  acquired  land,  cleared  slums,  and  progressed  on  the  job  of  re- 
building its  campus,  it  ha,s  stimulated,  encouraged,  and  cooperated  with  others  in 
remaking  the  south  side  of  Chicago. 

Illinois  Tech  has  been  in  the  forefront  of  the  city-s  slum  clearance  and 
development  program.   Its  record  of  accomplishiient  speaks  for  itself.   It  believes 
that  the  rebuilding  of  Chicago  is  necessary;  that  the  south  side  area,  and,  indeed, 
the  city  as  a  whole,  are  in  jeopardy  financially  and  socially  if  minimum  decent 
conditions  for  v.'-orking  and  living  are  not  provided. 

This  job  can  be  done  only  by  a  com.bination  of  private  individuals  ai^id  firms 
and  public  agencies  vforlcing  together  to  achieve  a  sound  long-term  pattern  of  land 
use  and  redevelopment. 

Moreover,  rehabilitation  of  slums  must  follov;  an  orderly  pattern  all  over 
the  city,  v.-herever  they  m^ay  be,  and  public  housing  sliould  also  be  built  in  an 


Page  three  -  Chicago  Housing  Authority 

orderly  manner,  dispersed  so  that  each  part  of  the  city  and  all  of  the  people  may 
benefits 

S>:cessive  concentration  of  public  housing  in  a  single  area  defies  sound 
neighborhood  planning  practices  and  principles.   It  establishes  economic  ghettos 
and  it  deters  private  developmento   Concentration  of  the  kind  proposed  creates  a 
city  within  a  city  in  v.'hich  a  large  number  of  people  are  forced  to  depend  upon 
the  largesse  of  the  r/hole  city,  T;ith  no  opportunity  for  association  vrith  persons 
in  higher  income  categories  and  consequent  discrimination  on  an  eccnor.ic  basis o 

Considered  as  a  group,  the  four  proposed  sites  along  the  Rock  Island  rail- 
road tracks  on  the  south  side,  are  unacceptable  because  they  v.'ould  result  in  an  ex- 
cessi'/e  concentration  of  public  housing  in  a  single  area  and  discourage  rather 
than  stimulate  further  private  development. 

As  a  vfhole,  the  current  proposals  for  location  of  public  housing  sites  are 
unsatisfactory  because  too  fev:  units  are  located  on  vacant  land  and  too  many  are 
located  in  a  limited  area  of  the  city. 

The  selection  of  these  locations  is  another  example  of  an  attempt  to  solve 
a  difficult  problem  by  the  methods  of  expediencye  It  completely  ignores  the  sound 
principles  of  city  planning  and  urban  redevelopment. 

Unless  the  officials  of  Chicago  are  willing  to  base  their  decisions  and  ac- 
tions on  facts  furnished  by  the  professional  persons  Tfhose  help  they  have  r.nlisted, 
there  is  little  hope  that  the  city's  housing  problem.s  v.'ill  be  solved.

CIIICLiG-0  --  Illinois  Institute  of  Technology  will  open  its  doors  to  the 
public  on  T.'Iay  I4.,   j,   and  6  during  its  raanirr.oth  Open  Hcuse-JuJiior  V/eek  activities. 

Students,  eager  to  show-off  their  scientific  knowledge,  have  spent  the 
past  month  in  laboratories  and  class  rooms  planning  exhibits  that  \vill  appeal  to 
the  non-scientific  visitor  as  well  as  to  the  engineer* 

This  year's  exhibits,  v/hich  include  more  than  200  special  student  projects, 
are  designed  to  shov;  the  accomplishments  of  the  engineer  and  the  methods  by  which 
he  is  constantly  -.i-orking  to  improve  the  comfort,  luxury,  and  safety  of  the  public-, 

They  range  from  a  kiss-o-meter,  which  gauges  the  potency  of  a  kiss,,  to  an: 
electronic  nan,  complete  with  neon  lights,  dials,  and  electric  brain-v/ave  transmitter. 

Among  some  of  the  other  unique  exhibits  are  an  electric  train,  controlled 
by  voice  rather  than  by  conventional  sv.dtches  and  control  panel;  a  strength  meter, 
operated  by  crank;  and  a  recording  of  your  radio  voice ,  which  will  be  played  back 
in  natuj-al,  base,  and  soprano  tones. 

And  this  year's  displays  have  not  slighted  the  housewife,  so  frequently 
ignored  in  the  shuffle  of  science.  The  wonan  who  pays  the  bills  v/ill  learn  the 
hourly  cost  of  using  any  of  10  electrical  household  appliances.  She  will  also 
observe  how  an  electric  iron  and  toaster  interfere  with  television  reception  and 
how  a  hot  do^'  is  electronically  cookedo 

The  housewife  v;ill  be  equally  interested  in  the  dramatization  of  common 
fire  and  electrical  hazards,  applications  of  mathematics  to  fields  completely 


open  house- junior  v/eek — Illinois  Tech,  page  two 

divorced  fron  matlieraatics,  an  ant  colony  portraying  comparisons  to  human  society, 
quicksand  demonstrations,,  and  model  table  s  ,.t tings „ 

Other  exhibits  include  aerial  gunnery  training  v;ith  visitor  participation, 
demonstration  shov/ing  ho\/  each  automxObile  carves  a  specific  impression  upon  the 
bridge  it  passes,  models  of  sewage  treatment  p^^ants,  tensile  testing  machines; 
and  electrolytic  polishing  •--  v/ith  etched  stainless  steel  bracelets  given  as 
souvenirs  o. 

Rumiing  concurrently  with  Open  House  is  the  forty-fourth  annual  Junior 
T/eek,  a  colorful  progx-am  of  student  theatricals,  sings,  concerts,  dances,  sporting 
events,  and  contests  which  will  be  clim-axed  by  the  Junior  '.Veek  prom  Saturday 
evening  (May  6)  at  the  Sheraton  hotelo 

Other  features  of  the  three-day  program  are  the  dedication  of  Gunsaulus 
Hall,  new  ten-story  apartment  building  for  married  students  and  staff  members  at 
3140  ocuth  Michigan  avenue;  dedication  of  nev/  carrillon  chimes;  crowning  of 
Illinois  Tech's  "Man  and  Vloiisn  of  the  Year"  as  selected  by  popular  student  vote;

dinner  at  which  Lt,  Gen.  Leslie  R..  Groves,  U.S^A,  Ret,,  will  be  principal  speaker. 

Besides  viewing  exhibits  and  special  events,  visitors  v.'ill  have  a  first 
hand  opportunity  to  see  what  has  been  done  in  Illinois  Tech's  program  of  slum 
clearance  and  redevelopment.-,   In  addition  to  the  apartment  building,  other  new 
buildings  including  two  dormitories,  a  heating  plant-,  and  fo-ur  classroomi  and 
laboratory  buildings  will  be  open  for  inspection,  as  well  as  the  recently  completed 
Association  of  American  Railroads  central  research  laboratory^ 

Illinois  Institute  of  Technology  was  formed  ten  years  ago  through  the 
merger  of  Lewis  Institute  and  Armour  Institute  of  Technology^   In  that  period  it 
has  recorded  a  phenomenal  growth.   Open  House  is  designed  to  shov/  that  development.

In  nuny  v/ays,    the  ^roup  that    ia  neetijig  here  tonif-ht 
mi^ilit   be  rti-^jardwd   us   ths  itioat   fortunate  group   In  the 
v./orlci's   hlf  tory.      \t'e  are  tho  technical  leaderB  of   a  great 
tachnloal  center   in  a  nutioii  which  has  v^on  its  way   to  world 
supremacy  by   technical  mastery  of  its   natural  resources. 
The   power   over  natural  v/ealth  and   huaan  destiny    that  is 
represented   in  this  room  would  have   been  tho   anvy   of  the 
kinfs   and   eriperors   of  a   fev/  hundred  years  agOc      iiven  iU.exander, 
who  conquerad   and   ruled   the  greater   part   of  the   civilized 
Vi/orld   of  ids   timej,  v/ould  .have  stood   in  awe  of  the  forces   that 
you  and   I  release  a   dozen  tiiaea   a  day  us  v/e  make  mere  routine 
decisions.      Surely  at   this   pinnacle   of   technical    pov/er   in 
a  mechanized   civilization,   we  nust   be  the  hapj^iest  men  and 
women  the  v/orld  has   ever   seen!

The   fixct   iflg   of  coursej,    tliat  v/e  are  nothing  of   the  i' 

kindo      Instead   of  thatj,  v/e  are   confused    and  ap})rehen3iV0c 
Many  of  us  look  backv/ard  v/ith  lon^in^,  to  a  time  v;hen  v/e  were  -■ 

much  less   pov/erful  but  much  nore   serenej,   and  wish  we  could  !: 

turn  the   clock  back   to  that   aiffipler,    happier  dayo      Most    of  i 

us   look  forward   fearfully  to  a   future    that   is  dark  with  be-  '[ 

v/ildermentj   doubt   and    possibilities   for  catastrophCo      The  f: 

fev;  of  us  v/ho  do  see,    or   think  v^e   see,   a  way   out   of   our  pre=  l 

sent  difficulties   know  in  our  hearts   that   there  is  little 
likelihood   of   our  \/ay   out  being  follov>?edo      I  was   araused   a 
fev;  days    ago,    in  looking  over  a  calendar  of  special  days   and 
v/eeks    issued   by   the   Uo   Tj.   Department  of  C^^mmorce   to  note  a 
juxtaposition   of  events   thet   seenod   to  mo   to  sum  up  our  sit- 
uation with   a  sort   of  desperate  humor o      The   calendar   shows 
/inerican  m-mea.   Fore  us  Day   coining  right   in  the  middle  of 
National  Pickle  l/oekJ      It   couldn't   be   said  quicker  J 


AS  v/e  contemplate  the  vast  social  and  political  com- 
plexity of  the  \/orld  today  j  it  has  become  commonplace  for 
us  to  say  "Isn't  it  a  trap^ody  -  that  we  have  concentrated 
our  talents  on  technical  problems  to  the  neglect  of  human 
problems.  But  for  most  of  us  this  is  just  an  expression, 
not  a  real  belief c  Me  donH  really  think  it  is  a  tragedy 
at  all,  because  we  keep  right  on  concentrating  on  techni- 
cal problems  and  neglecting  human  problems  «  in  our  in= 
dividual  lives,  in  our  businesses  and  professions,  and  in 
our  communities o  We  may  brood  about  politics  and  public 
problems  but  we  don't  do  anything  about  themo  Mostly,  we 
see   them  us   a  somber  backdrop  for  our  own  individual 


'2^ 


triumphwS  of  tKohnique.  "'e  thiril'  if  only  everybody  else 
v;ere  as  brilliant  and  onereetic  as  we  are,  the  problems 
v/ould  be  solved  o 

Perhaps  this  is  a  natin'al  attitude  for  us    to    takso 
To  each  of  us  his   ov/n  work,,   his  own  interest,,   is  the  most 
important    thing  in  the  world.     Aa   technical    people,,   we   are 
bound  to   look   upon  technical   progress   as   an   important   end 
or   objective  of  human  activityo      But   eventually  v/e  come    to 
the  questionK   that  many   of  us  keep  asking   ourselves  more 
and  more  frequently   these  days   -   the  questions   I'd   like  to 
discuss  with  you  here   tonit^ht;      Is   technical  progress   enough? 
Does   it    justify  our  activity?     If  notg  v;hat   are  the  other 
ends   or   objectives   we   should   seek? 

Of  coursej,    those  are  not   new  questions  o      Since  the   be- 
ginning of  our  civilisation  man  have  asked   themselves  these 
very   sarae  (questions.     The  French  philosopher »   RoussoaUg   for 
example,    put   the   question  in  a  different ^    and  challengingj 
foriic      He  asked?      iifia   the  progress    of   science  done  man  any 
real  good?      Obviously;,   we   think   the  answer   is   "Yes'"  and 
yet  it  may   be  worth  while   for  us   to   examine  the   answer   that 
Rousseau  himself   came  tOo     He  v/as   skeptical.      In  his  Dis- 
coui'se  on  the  Arts   and  iJclenceSj    Rousseau  recalled   the  words 
of  Socrates;      "Because  the  most   skillful   of  men  excel  others 
in  their   particular   jobSj    they  think    Uieiaselves  wiser   than 
all   the   rest   of  mankind;    this   arrogance   spoiled  all   their 
skill   in  my  eyos^"     In  Rousseau ''s   Judgment^    the  moral    effects 
of   science  may  have  been   so  bad  as    to  offset  its  physical 
advantages c 

These  are  hcirsh  words  p    and  I    doubt   that   many  of  us  Vi/ould 
acknov.'ledgt    that   they   are   true.,     But  certainly   it   is  a   fact 
that  skilliul  men   are   likely  to  become  self<=c entered  j,   and 
certainly   this    fact  has   something   to  do  with  the   political 
and   social  difficulties   in  v/hich  we  find   ourselves   todayo 

But   tliere   is  another  ^    and  more  important  ^   respect    in 
v/hich  our   technical   and   moial    interests  are   in  conf.licto      I 
think   it   is    fair  to  say  that  a   large  part   of   the    technical 
mastory   that  v/e  have  achieved    in  this  country  has   been    the 
direct  result   of  competition.      It   is   their  efforts    to  excel 
one  another   and   so  achieve   recognition   and  rewards    that  take 
men  to  the  top  within  a   profession  or  business,   and   it   is  the 
effort    to   excel   ojid   profit  that   takes   a  company  ahead  within 
an   industry,    and   an  industry  ahead   in  society o      Our  customs 
and  lav/3  recognize    the    value   of  competition  and   seek  to  pre- 
serve it,      Tet   the   emphasis    on  competition   in  our   economic 
lives  is   in   some  conflict  with  the  moral  rules   by  v;hich  our 
personal   lives  are  governed o 


-3-- 


Pluin.lys  the  pressures  of  technical  progress  have 
forced  us  to  abandon  many  raoral  doctrines  which  we  prog- 
ress to  believso   Is  this  the  inevitable  scoui'ge  of  our 
efforts  to  conquer  our  environment ^  as  Rousseau  believed? 
Or  is  it  rather  the  result  of  a  coffipetitive,  technical 
interest  that  has  becoine  so  intense  that  we  have  lost 
sight  of  other  values?  And  can  we  noWj,  hy   educating  our- 
selves and  our  children^,  achieve  the  kind  of  balance  of 
technical  and  spiritual  forces  that  is  essential  to  our 
happiness  J,  if  not  to  our  survival? 

I  think  it  is  encouraging  that  we  have  recognized  the 
need  and  are  making  the  effort <,   Let  me  present  some  of 
the  evidences  Our  engineering  and  technical  faculties  are 
awakening  nore  and  more  to  the  need  for  humanizing  the 
technical  curriculum,,  andj  what  may  be  more  significant^ 
students  themselves j  in  contrast  to  the  attitude  of  ;5^st 
a  few  years  ago,  are  Virelccming  and  even  denanding  courses 
outside  their  chosen  technical  fields,   Herej,  for  exaraplej, 
is  a  recent  statement  by  Dean  Paul  Herake  of  Rensseleajf 
Polytechnic  Institute;   "The  engineer  and  scientist  as  a 
professional  man  deals  with  people  as  much  as  he  deals  with 
things o  Because  of  his  profession ^  he  has  additional  re^ 
sponsibilities  as  a  citiaeno   The  broader  and  more  under= 
standing  his  outlook  upon  the  v^orld-  the  better  able  he  is 
to  perform  his  duties  as  a  citizenj,,  and  the  fuller  and  more 
complete  will  be  his  life  as  a  human  beings" 

Dean  Ileinke's  viev/s  are  echoed  in  technical  and  pro= 
fessional  schools  throughout  the  country,,   In  a  recent  sur^ 
veyg  the  ecucatlon  editor  of  the  New  York  Times  found  only 
an  occasional  engineering  student  who  felt  he  was  wasting 
time  on  language,  history  and  literatiu-e  courses o  By   and 
large  J,  the  Tiiaes  foun.dj,  science  and  engineering  students 
want  the  broadest  possible  nontechnical  educatiouo   They  are 
trying  to  squeeze  into  their  already  crov^ded  schedules  as 
many  liberal  arts  courses  as  they  are  permitted  tOo  At 
Georgia  Tech  this  year,  for  example ^  mors  than  10  per  cent 
of  the  entire  student  body  has  voluntarily  scheduled  modern 
language  courses  as  electives^  Many  liberal  arts  classes 
for  juniors  and  seniors  have  no  room  for  all  the  students 
who  wish  to  take  them! 

Here  is  a  confirmirig  report  —  from  Dro  Weller  Embler 
of  Cooper  Unions   "It  has  boen  our  experience/'  he  saidj, 
"that  technical  students  are  not  only  willing  but  very  often 
eager  to  read,  think  and  talk  about  humanities  ■=  especially 
ideals  and  problemiSo  If  there  remains  any  displeasure  on 
their  part  at  being  required  to  take  humanities  courses j,  the 
displeasure  stems  largely  from  the  fact  that  they  are  too 
busy  with  technical  studies  to  give  proper  time  and  thought 


to  the  humanities   coia.;.':o''      Contrast    thut  vlth  your  ov.n 
experience   as   a  teelinio;>l  stuclont? 

The  reasciiing  behind   these  chejages  reflects   the  chy.xig- 
ing  emphasis    in  our  te)ca.'jioal  society  «»  the  tiwakening 
realizatiou  that  techniciil   KEOv/»how  is   not  enough,,      The  dean 
of  engineering    at  Yale  University^   Dro  Vf alter  Woh.lGnbergp 
suiKEied   it    up  recently  in   these  words s      "The  Liberal  arts 
are   a  pert   of  the   cultural   and   educational   background  of 
the  human   racej,    as  much   as   engineering  and   science  areo      The 
problems   of  modern  society   stem  from  the  whole  of  h\iman   ex- 
perience j    to   urxderatand    and  help  in  their   solution   requires 
a  broad  educational   backgrovjid„" 

Perhaps^   the  students   of  this  changing  emphasis  in  tech- 
nical education  are  likely  to  be  less  keen   as  technical 
specialists   than  their  predecessors  have  been  but  maybe   ovir 
hope  for  tiie  future   is  based   on  the  expectation  that   they 
may  be  mora  keen   as   citizens  and   as   human  beingSo      As   special- 
ists ^  many  of  you  may  resent   the  implication  here    that  you 
have  been  less  than  you  might  have  been  as  citizens  and   human 
beings o      Look  v;hat  you  have  contributed  to  human  comfort  and 
wall-being  through   your  techiiical  accomplishments?      Look  at 
the  number   of  people   you  employ ^^   and   the  taxes  you  pay^   and 
the  civic    contributions   you  make  J      What    is   expected  of   a 
citizen  fn-5.  a  human  being  that  you  haven't  given?     You  may 
well  asl-jj   and  it   is  a  fair  question.. 

As  I   see  itj,    the  axisv/er    to  yoiu'  question  is    related  to 
the  ansvior   that   I  think  v;e  must  givg  to  Rousseau's  question j, 
"Has    the  pi\ogrsss  of  science  done  man  any  real  good?'*     If 
science  has  simply  made  man  more  comfortable ^   If   it  has  made 
him  stronger  and   sleeker^    and   evon  health?. or g    it  has  not   im- 
proved him  intrinsically  at  allj    and  we  have  done   all   that 
could  be   expected   of  us   as   hutian  beings o      But    if  science  has 
released  iirsi  from  the  demands    of  animal  existence   so  that  he 
may  turn  his  energies  toward  moral  and   spiritual  improvement, 
then  the  possibilities  are  as   great  as  the  accomplishments 
to  date   are  small ^   and  many  of   us  have   failed  in  our  chief 
re3pon3ibi3.ity  as  citizens  and  human  beings  » 

Is  this  just  so  much  Sunday  School  talk,  v/ithout  any 
real  meaning  in  a  world  of  H-bosbSj,  public  debts  and  ward 
commltteGmen? 

I  don't  believe  it    is.      In  fact,   I  think  it   can   be  shown 
that   ovir  failure  to  recognize  and  respond  to  our  broad  re- 
sponsibilities as  citizens  and  human  beings ,   our  failure  to 
understand  that  technical  progress  is  not    enough,    is   the  key 
to  many  of  our  greatest  difficulties   in  America  today.     The 
political  structure   in  v^|i:.ch  vie  take  so  much   pride  j,   our  great 
United  States   Constitution,   was  formulated,   in  its    own 
language,    "to  establish  justiccj,   insure  domestic  tranquillity 


-y- 


and  promote  the  general  V;?s  If  ere  o'   Is  it  reasonable  to  think 
that  these  ends  can  bs  achieved  tlirough  words  alone ^  Vi?ithout 
continuing f  re-inforcing  action  by  every  citizen  of  the 
nation?  Does  o\ir  conduct  as  individuals  and  technicians  always 
bear  close  examination  as  a  ccntribution  to  justice  and  tran- 
quillity and  the  general  welfare?  If  v^'e  had  devoted  as  much 
of  our  individual  effort  to  the  achievement  of  Justice  and 
tranquillity  and  the  general  welfare  as  we  have  to  technical 
progress y  is  it  unlikely  that  we  v/ould  be  faced  now  with  the 
many  conflicts  and  problems  arising  from  the  fact  that  we  have 
relinquished  to  the  Styte  many  functions  and  responsibilities 
that  we  should  have  kept  as  our  own? 

You  and  I  hear  and  take  part  today  in  a  lot  of  conver- 
sation about  hov/  ve   can  stop  the  trend  toward  socialism  in 
Americao   If  I  am  sure  of  anything^  I  am  sure  that  we  can'^t 
stop  the  trend  toward  socialism  by  talking  about  itj  or  by 
talking  about  all  the  evils  it  has  led  to  elsewhere  and  may 
lead  to  here*  Nor  is  it  certain  that  we  can  atop  it  alto- 
gether by  replacing  one  riet  of  elected  government  officials 
with  another  J  hov/evcr  desirable  that  may  be  for  ®ther  reasons, 
because  essentially  the  trend  arises  not  alone  from  the  will 
of  our  elected  and  appointed  officials  but,  from  the  will  of 
a  people  seeking  justice ^  tranquillity  and  the  general  wel- 
fare j,  and  not  knav'inii  hov-  to  find  these  dasired  ends,-. 

Actually,  of  Gours"?^  these  ends  cannot  be  achieved 
through  socialisrag  any  nore  than  they  can  be  achieved  through 
any  other  mere  doctrine o   If  they  can  be  achieved  at  all  it 
must  be  done  instead  through  effoxto   It  must  be  everybody's 
effort  J,  of  courses  but  tl:e  technical  leaders  of  a  technical 
society  cannot  escape  their  rssponsibility  for  leadership. 
Until  our  acts  reveal  dsvetion  to  these  great  causes  they 
can  never  be  realised  in  any  true  measure^,  and  this  means 
that  we  must  turn  some  of  our  attention  away  from  technical 
progress  to  insure  the  survival  of  our  economic  society  as  we 
know  ito 

There  are  a  few  hopeful  signs  that  this  is  being  donoo 
Increasingly  we  find  the  leaders  of  cur  technical  society j, 
people  like  yourselves j,  turning  away  from  their  professional 
and  business  lives  and  accepting  responsibilities  in  the 
education  and  welfare  activities  of  the  communityo   Increas- 
inglyg  tooy  v/e  see  technical  leaders  assuning  political  re- 
sponsibilities —  and  it  is  in  this  area.,  I  thinks  that  our 
failure  as  citizens  has  been  most  shameful.  Too  many  of  us  j, 
I  am  afraidj  have  failed  to  accept  even  the  very  minimum  of 
political  responsibility^  that  of  informing  ourselves  on  the 
issue  and  the  candidates  and  voting,   TJhtil  v/e  have  done  this 
and  much  mor©^  hoxt   can  we  expect  a  political  system  based  on 
the  sovereignty  of  the  people  to  work?  The  fact  is  that  it 
can't  possibly  work  very   well  until  people  like  yourselves^ 


technical  lead.ors^    are  \/illiiig  to  accept  the  high  responsi= 
bilitiea   of  office-holding  and  Ifc.w-iaekingo      The  system  de» 
pends   on  yoiir  active  participation  but   you  have   been  too  busy 
with  technical   progress   to  talce  part.      There    is    still  timej. 
if   you  have   the  vision  and   the   resolution  to  change  your 
habits  o 

Our   greatest   hope   for   the  future^    however^    lies    in  the 
evidence    of   still  another  awakaning  interest   in   our   technical 
society   —   an  interest   in  spiritual  and  moral  as  well   as   tech- 
nical values o      Church  memberships   ara  growing  as   people   reach 
out   for  sonething  they  are  aware  is  missing  in  their  lives,, 
Books  whose  message  is  a   spiritual  message  are  on  best=seller 
lists  for   the  first  time   in  our  history^   andj,   this  is  especially 
important   I  think ^    these  books  are  in  greatest   demand   on  our 
college  and   university  campuseso      Here  again^,    hov.'evers    it    is 
our   technical  leaders   on  vjhom  we  must  depend   to  give  the  move- 
ment   toward   spirituality  the  strength  and  vigor  and  endurance 
that  will  make  it  m.eaningfulo     Can  you  turn  aside  from  tech- 
nical  progress  to  contemplate  the  greatest  and  most  neglected 
admonition  that   has    ever   been  given  to  man;      ''Love   thy  neighbor 
as   thyself?"     If  you  oai\,    we  will  find  our  way   out   of  the  dif- 
ficulties  Vie  are   in  and   any  others   that   may  come   to  uSo      If 
you  cannot p    surely  we  are  doomedo 

What   each  of   us   needs   most,,    I  am  convinced ^    is   something 
that  I   cannot   describe  but   can  illustrate o      It   is   the  g)irit 
of    the  nursing  Sister  about  whom  this  story  came  back  from  tte 
^Nationalist  v^'or  front   in  China o      In  a  mission  hospital^    the 
Sister  was   tenderly  caring  for    a  dirty   Chinese  soldier  whose

"Sister 5,    I  \70uldn''t  do  your  work  for  a  million  dollars S"     The

CHICAGO  —  Elementary  school  methods  of  teaching  are  responsible  for  faulty 
practices  in  reading,  according  to  ¥nrs,   Elizabeth  Simpson  of  Illinois  Institute 
of  Technology, 

In  an  article  in  Education  magazine,  Kts.  Simpson,  director  of  the  adult 
reading  service  of  Illinois  Tech's  Institute  for  Psychological  Services,  blajned 
oral  reading  lessons  for  slov/noss  and  poor  comprehension* 

"A  child  cannot  read  faster  than  he  can  tal]\,  I.lrs.  Simpson  explained,  "and 
relatively  few  pupils  are  schooled  in  the  transfer  from  this  oral  training  to 
silent  reading,. 

"The  eye  is  capable  of  extremely  rapid  perception  and  recognition,  but  it 
must  automatically  adjust  to  keep  pace  with  the  much  slower  rate  of  speech* 

"This  type  of  training  also  leads  to  'vocalizing'  which,  in  its  most 
obvious  form,  can  be  seen  in  lip  readinge   In  a  less  serve,  but  still  improper, 
manner,  it  results  in  the  reader's  hearing  in  his  mind  the  written  words  as  they 
would  be  spoken^ " 

Another  handicap  to  faster  reading  is  the  belief  that  the  slow  reader  is 
the  one  vvho  gets  the  most  out  of  what  he  reads,,  Tests  liave  proven  that  the  slow 
person  tends  to  lose  the  meaning,  but  many  teachers  persist  in  the  erroneous  belief-^ 

"The  slow  reader  must  continually  be  binding  together  the  meanings  to  each 

individual  \7ord  into  phrases,  each  phrase  into  sentenceSc-  Because  of  this  he  may 

often  for<y,et   or  feel  unsure  of  what  he  has  just  road  and  read  it  again^ 

"Good  silent  readings"  I.Irs,  Simpson  concluded,  ''should  be  carried  on  at  a 
rate  at  least  twice  as  fast  as  oral  readingg."

CHICAGO  —   John  Pe   Makielski,    assistant   to   the  dean  of   engineering 
and  swiimning   coach  at    Illinois    Institute  of  Technology,    has  been  appointed  regis- 
trar.   President   Henry  T,    Heald,    announced  today,. 

The  25-year-old  Iilakielski,   with  a   staff  of  eleven,    is  believed   to  be  tha 
youngest  registrar   in  any  of  the  country's  major  educational  institutions^. 

xVs  a  Navy  V-12  student  at   Illinois  Tech,    he  earned  a  bachelor's  degree   in 
mechanical   engineering   in  January   1947  and   a  bachelor's  degree   in  industrial   engineer- 
ing the   following  June,     At   present,    he   is   completing  v/ork  toward  a  master's  degree 
in  business  administration  at   the  University  of  Chicago* 

While  an  undergraduate,   Makielski  was   president   of   the   Illinois  Tech  student 
association,    captain  of  the  varsity  swimjning  team,    secretary  and   treasurer  of 
Honor   I   (athletic   honorary  society),    chairman  of  the   Interhonorary  Council^   and 
president   of  Tau  Beta  Pi,    highest   engineering  honorary  societyj.

sented by  the  railroad  industry  is  alive  tc  the  continued  necessity  of  progress 
through  research  to  provide  better  service  to  the  American  public." 

"The  alliance  of  the  Institute  and  the  railroad  industry  in  a  joint  effort  to 
further  the  progress  of  one  of  the  nation's  great  enterprises  demonstrates  the 
soundness  of  a  closer  association  between  industry  and  higher  education,"  Dr, 
Heald  saido 


page  two  -  MR  dedication 

"No  two  groups  in  the  American  political,  social^  and  economic  system  are 
more  closely  allied  or  more  dependent  upon  each  ether  than  education  and  industryo 

'■From  the  institutions  of  higher  education  come  the  industrial  leaders  of 
tomorrov;,  and  out  of  the  laboratories  come  the  discoveries  which  Y/ill  enable  in- 
dustry to  produce  more  and  better  goods  and  services  for  an  increasingly  higher 
standard  of  living, 

"Closer  cooperation  between  industry  and  education  ivill  help  close  the 
imaginary  ,gulf  which  som.etimes  separates  the  two  and  build  better  understanding 
and  a  better  life  for  all  of  the  people,"  Dr„  Heald  said. 

The  railr-cad  research  building  is  one  of  the  campus  structures — ^including 
educational,  research,  and  housing  units — designed  by  Ludwig  Mies  van  der  Rohe.  one 
of  the  foremost  living  architects  and  head  of  the  Illinois  Tech  department  of

It  is  located  along  the  Ne.v  York  Central-Reck  Island  right-of-way,  at  the

The  Armour  Research  Foundation  of   the  Illinois   Institute  of  Technology^ 
Chicago^,    Illinois,    has  been  selected  as  the  technical  Research  Center  of  the  StruO" 
tural  Clay  Products  Research  Foundation,    it  was  announced  today  by  the  latter 'a 
Director  of  Researchj   Robert  B,   Tayloro     Here  the  initial  phases  of  the   industrji  ^s 
long-range  $ls,250y000  Research  Program  will  get  underwayo 

"The  Research  Program  to  be  conducted  at  Armour  will  be  devoted  prinarily 
to  end-use  research   in  brick,   tile  and  other  structural  clay  productSj*  I/Ira   Taylor 
declared,      "Lov/er  in-the-wall  itasonry  costs  will  be  the  main  objective.     Studies 
will  be  made  of  the  effect  of  unit   size,  weight,   assembly  techniques^    etc»,    to 
determine  combinations   that  will  allow  walls  to  be  built  most  economicallyo 

"New  clay  products,   of  a  non-wall  type,  will  also  be  evaluated  to  determine 
their  practicality  and  marketability,    so  that  additj.onal  sales  potentials  for  clay 
can  bo  developedc. 

"Armour  Research  Foundation  was   selected  after  a  detailed  survey  of  a  group- 
of  nationally  known  universities  and   industrial  research  organizations*     Armour 
has  had  considerable  successful  experience  in  the  fields  of  building,   and  building 
material  research.      In  addition.  Armour  can  assign  trained  men  from  its  present 
staff  to  the  Structural  Clay  Products  Program  immediately,   thus  reducing  the

'start-up  timfr*  of  getting  the  program  into  operationj  It  is  well  supplied  with 
research  and  testing  equipments  and  sufficient  space  is  available  for  present  or 
contemplated  needs," 

!.&"»   Taylor  also  revealed  that   the  Structural  Clay  Products  Research 
Foundation  will  conduct  research  on  efflorescence,    insulation  and  condensation- 
along  with  fundamental  clay  research.      The  final  decision  as  to  where  these  studies 
should  be  carried  on  V7ill  be  made  short  lye 

The  Research  Director  v/ill  establish  an  office  in  Chicago  to  devote  the 
major  portion  of  his  time  to  personal  direction  of  the  researche     He  plans  to 
continue  his  personal  survey  and   study  of  the  brick  and  tile  industry  and   its  users,-, 
in  order  to  keep  research  needs  evaluated  arji  up-to-dateo 

Utr.    Taylor,   who  was   formerly  Assistant  Dir^jctor   of  Research  for   the  Owens™ 
Corning  Fiberglas  Corp*,   Newarko   Ohiot    took  over   his   nev;  post  with   the  Structural 
Clay  Products  Research  Foundation  in  January  of  this  year^   after  the   nation's 
brick  and  tile  manufacturers  had  subscribed  to  a  five-year,    long~x'ange  research 
effort.

CHICAdO  --There  will  be  a  shortage  of  engineering  gT^aduates  in  the  United 
States  before  present  high  school  seniors  can  coinplete  four-year  courses  in  any 
branch  of  engineering* 

This  prediction  was  made  today  by  Dro  L^  Eo  Grinter,  professor  of  civil 
engineering  and  mechanics  and  former  vice  president  of  Illinois  Institute  of 
Technology, 

"High  school  graduates  are  completely  mistaken  in  fearing  that  the 
temporary  slight  excess  of  engineering  graduates  will  crowd  the  profession  four 
years  from  now, "  he  said» 

Estimating  the  current  (I930)  engineering  graduates  at  ii^s^OO}  he  forecast 
a  sharp  reduction  next  year  and  in  1952o 

"Because  of  the  sm^ll  birth  rate  in  the  early  '30s,  the  present  pool  of 
high  school  students  is  rapidly  becoming  smaller  than  in  pre-war  yearso  And  a 
snaller  percentage  are  choosing  engineering  as  a  career^" 

"It  is  clear,"  he  said,  "that  the  number  of  engineering  graduates  by  1954 
will  be  smaller  than  in  1940^.  But  the  job  opportunities  for  graduates  in  1954  are 
expected  to  double  those  of  1940cf" 

This  will  produce  an  employment  picture  in  which  young  men  who  enter 
college  as  engineering  freshmen  in  195^  and  I951  can  expect  employers  to  seek 
them  upon  graduation^

grinter-- Illinois  Tech,,   page  two 

Dr..  Grintei'  noted  that   one   state   university  now  has   only  3OO   freshmen 
in  a   total   encineering  eni^ollment   of  2,200,   and  an  even  smaller   freshman  class 
is   expected  to   enroll  next  fall,. 

"If  this   trend   continues,    the   enrollment  will  be  less  than  900   engineering 
students  by   195^5   and   the   number   of  graduates  nay  be  expected   to  drop   from  750 
this   year   to  2^0   in  1954," 

There   is  misunderstanding,    too,    he  said,   as   to   the  purpose   of  engineering 
education, 

"It  has  a  dual  purpose^.  It  serves  first  as  professional  education  for 
future  engineers,  but  it  also  furnishes  to  large  numbers  of  young  men  the  best 
education  available  for    living  and   earning   in  a   technological  vrorld* 

"Thousands   of   engineering   student   will  becom.e   industrial  salesmen, 
supervisors,   managers,    and  representatives   of   corporations,    .for  which   their 
education  as  engineers   is  more  valuable  th.in  education  of  a  more  general 
character,"   he  pointed   out,. 

"Not   even  one-third   of  all  engineering  graduates  remain   in  professional 
engineering  over  an  entire  lifetime,"  Dr..  Grinter  saidp.

CHICAGO  —  John  Langrehr  who  never  went   to  high  school  a  day  in  his   life 
will  receive  a   college  degree  at  8  p^m*   Friday  (June  9)  during  Illinois   Institute 
of  Technology's  spring  commencement  ceremonies    in  the  Civic  Opera  House. 

The  3C-year-old  graduate,   who  will  receive  a  bachelor's  degree   in  industrial 
engineering,,  was  forced  to  drop  school  16   years  ago  following  graduation  from 
eighth  grade.     He  and   his  wife  and  5-yGar-old  son,   Richard,    live  at  31^0  South 
Michigan  avenue, 

"As  a  child,"  Langrehr  explained,  "I  was  fortunate  even  to  have  finished 
eighth  grade »" 

His  father,    Henry  Langrehr,    owner  of  a  360-acre  farm  near  Parker,   South 
Dakota,   tried  to  keep  John  in  school  but  the  severe  drought  of  the  30*3  made  it 
impossible.      Instead  of  attending  the   local  public  high  school,   John,    ninth  in 
a  family  of  10  children,    helped  on  the  farmo 

"I  was  never  fond  of  farming,"  he  admitted,    "I  always  preferred  puttering 
around  nachines.     So  at   I99    I  left  the  farm  and  came  east  to  see   if  I  could  find 
some  way  to  study  machinerv» 

"First,  I  went  to  Barrington,  Illinois,,  and  worked  two  years  on  a  fox  and 
mink  farm»  Then,  in  1938»  I  managed  to  get  a  job  as  an  apprentice  at  the  Barber- 
Coleman  imchine  tool  manufacturing  plant   in  Rockf ord» " 

While  attending  St..  Paul's  Lutheran  church  in  Rockford,    he  met  the  parson's 
daughter,  MisS  Dorothy  Brunn,     On  J&irch  7,    1943,    'the  bride's  father,  Dr.   F..  A,  Brunn,

officiated  at  their  wedding, 

A  year  after  his  narriage,  John  joined  the  navy  and  served  as  a  motor 
machinist's  mate  aboard  an  1ST   in  the  Pacific  theater. 

Upon  returning  to  Rockford  in  January  of  1946 »  he  learned  of  Illinois 
Tech's  cooperative  education  program  at  Rockford  college  which  enabled  students 
in  tlhat  area  to  \vork  alternating  semesters  in  local  industrial  plants  while 
studying  for  a  degree. 

After  two  years  at  Rockford  college,  students  then  transfer  to  Chicago 
where  they  continue  their  five-year  work-study  program  at  Illinois  Tech, 

Professor  Harold  L,,  Ivlinkler,  co-ordinator  of  the  program,  suggested  John 
take  an  aptitude  test  to  determine  whether  a  high  school  education  was  necessary, 

"For  years,"  Langrehr  said,  "I  had  been  haunting  libraries  and  studying 
by  correspondence  to  compensate  for  my  lack  of  formal  education*"  Thus,  Langrehr 
not  only  passed  the  entrance  examinations  but  ranked  among  the  highest  of  those 
who  took  the  testSc- 

A  month  after  his  navy  discharge  Langrehr  vras  attending  classes  at  Rockford 
collegeo   In  accord  with  the  program,  he  studied  at  Rockford  four  months  and  them 
spent  the  next  four  at  Barber-Coleman  company  where  he  applied  in  fact  what  he  had 
learned  in  class, 

MeanTifhile,  through  a  GI  loan  he  pruchased  an  $8,000  six-room  home  in 
suburban  Loves  Park  and  he  and  his  wife  spent  evenings  redecorating,  landscaping, 
and  gardening.  However,  before  transferring  to  Illinois  Tech  in  Septemier  of  1948» 
they  sold  their  home  at  a  profit  to  help  meet  expenses,   "Because,"  Langrehr 
explained^  "it  was  a  pretty  tight  squeeze  on  $90  monthlyo" 

When  the  Langrehr  family  arrived  in  Chicago  that  fall,  they  buckcsd  the 
housing  shortage  during  their  first  year  by  Dorothy's  v;orking  as  a  maid  while 
John- served  as  butler  for  a  socially  prominent  north  side  family.   In  exchange

they  received  room  and  board  which  tided   them  over   until  Illinois   Tech's   ten-story 
apartment  building  for  irarried  students  and  staff  members  was  completed. 

After  moving  into   Illinois  Tech's  nev?  apartment  building,    they  both  found 
work  at   the   Institute,  Mrs«   Langrehr  as  a  secretary,   and  John  as  a  laboratory 
research  assistant. 

Follov;ing  graduation,  the  Langrehrs  v;ill  return  to  Rockford  where  Johm 
will  resume  v/ork  at  the  Barber-Colerran  company  as  an  industrial  engineer  in  the 
production,    control,   and  methods  department, 

Inspite  of  his  heavy  program  of  work  and  study,  Langrehr  has  maintained 
a   straight  B  average,   but  doesn't   consider  his   efforts  unusual, 

"It   was  well  worth  the  struggle,"   he  said;    "it's  taught  me  one  thing» 
Our  son  will  have  a  college  education  but   he  won't  get  one  this  way.     Already 
he's  filled  three  piggy  banks   labled    'for   college  only'   and  that,"  he  said, 
"is   just   the  beginning,"

CHICA.GO  --   TV'o  young  women  who  defied  precedent  by   invadi-ig   fields  of 
engineering  at    Illinois   Institute  of  Technology  will  receive  their  bachelors'

Breaking  a  ^O-ye'^r-'Oldi  tradition  is  no  easy  task,   they  both  admit,.     As 
lone  women  among  men,    they  simply  learned   to  push  a  slide  rule  as   quickly  as   their 
fellow   classmates,   arrive  at   the  same  answers  to   calculus  prcbleiiis,   and,    in 
general.;    study  long  hours   to  keep  pace  with  more  mechanically-minded  m.ale3.. 

At   times   it  meant   intrusion  where   Illinois  Tech   coeds   liad  ne'er  before 
treado. 

For  Miss  Bey  that  was   last  month  v.'hen,    in  tribute  to  her  superior   scholar- 
ship,   she  was  awarded  a  woman's  badge  to  Tau  Beta  Pi,    highest   engineering

I  Sponsored  by  Armour  Research  Foundation  of  Illinois  Institute  of  Teclinologyj 
the  program  vj-ill  include  four  panel  sessions  led  by  outstanding  authorities.  The 
formation,  geom.etry,  structure,  applications,  and  problems  of  thin  films  will  be  . 
discussed. 

Co-chairmen  of  the  symposium  are  Charles  F,  Tufts,  associate  physicist  at  the

lems in  such  industries  as  paint,  metals,  plastics,  and  petroleum  will  be  discussedc 
According  to  Tufts,  thin  film  techniques  are  important  in  product  control  and  in- 
provement  since  these  films  constitute  the  finish,  of  any  product. 

A  new  Icvf-cost  RCA  electron  microscope  will  be  seen  as  part  of  an  instrument

li  ±3   frequently  rsma-^ked  in  these  dajs  that  our  mastery  of  natural  science 
h'T'.o  far  outstriy-ped  car  r.iasber/  of  social  science.   It  would  be  n^cre  correct  to  say 
that  the  technology  of  inert  or  passive  riaterials  and  unchanging  natural  forces  is 
much,  siiri^jler  thaii  the  technology  r-rhd-ch  will  organize  and  direct  the  not  enslaved 
actions  of  infinitely  dj_ff erentiated  human  oeings — aspiring  and  rebellioas^  competi- 
tive, and  cooperative  J  to  some  extent  conditioned  but  to  a  great  extent  A'nimsical., 
The  aemano  for  individual  education  and  for  personal  and  group  sej_f-dis-:ipline  is 
something  which  has  no  counterpart  in  the  v/orld  of  natural  sciences, 

Tcday,  our  country  stands  at  a  crucial  stage  in  its  own  history  snd  in  the 
life  of  the  world,  Y/ith  alraost  fabulous  resources  in  our  hands,  we  are  confronted 
by  a  fateful  responsibility  to  employ  those  resources  so  as  to  enrich  life,  preserx-e 
liberty,  and  accelerate  the  pursuit  of  happiness  not  only  ameng  our  own  people  but^ 
in  reasonable  measure,  throughout  the  society  of  free  nations.  Many  of  those 
coiir.tries  have  been  less  favorably  situated  than  we  and  some  of  them,  have  m»ade 
greater  sacrifices  in  pioneering  and  in  preserving  h'oman  liberties  than  we  hax'e 
ever  been  called  upon  to  make, 

A  voice  booms  out  from  the  grim  towers  of  authoritarianism  to  say  that  free 
peoples  will  never  discipline  themselves  and  work  to  a  common  purpose  in  developing 
the  strength  that  is  potentially  theirs «  Thus  far,  we  have  not  decisively  refuted 
that  challenge,  l"e  have  not  shown  that  we  can  use  freedom  to  pursue  our  own 
economic  interests  as  we  see  them  without  abusing  that  freedom  so  that  individuals, 
companies,  or  groups  overreach  their  proper  place  in  a  vrell  balanced  productive 
economy  and  thereby  tlu-ow  it  into  disorder  and  Imoair  its  prcductivityc

The  complex  and  delicate  problem  of  economic  adjustment  in  a  free  society 
makes  high  demands  not  merely  on  the  intelligence  but  on  the  attitudes  of  those 
human  beings  v/ho  are  its  directive  agents.  Some  of  these  directive  agents  occupy 
exalted  and  strategic  posts  in  the  economy,  Kany  ai-e  stationed  at  posts  that  are 
miinor,  but  these  as  a  total  are  no  less  important.   To  be  sound,  the  adjustments 
in  the  economic  process  made  by  all  these  people  must  be  undertaken  in  the  objective 
spirit  of  engineering  or  of  underlying  science.   Ultimate  trouble  is  invited  -vhen 
action  is  that  of  the  slick  trader  or  bully  "thi-oving  his  vreight  around."  All  these 
business  functionaries ^  corporation  executives,  officers  of  labor  unions,  farm 
leaders,  and  officials  of  government  need  to  realize  that  it  is  a  complex,  inter- 
connected, and  highly  sensitive  economic  mechanism  v;ith  v.'hich  they  are  dealing, 
Ihey  must  not  think  that  they  can  build  up  group  pov/er  and  use  it  to  miake  whatever 
adjustment  seems  at  the  moment  desirable  or  profitable  to  themselves,  without  con- 
sidering the  long-term  effects  and  the  v.'idespread  repercussions  of  each  particular 
action. 

The  practicing  engineer  is  quite  aware  of  the  importance  of  the  human 
directive  factor.  He  ]-mov.-s  that,  besides  having  a  v/ell-designed  plant  and  vrell- 
considered  adjustm.ents  of  the  several  parts  of  this  machine  to  each  other,  Y;e  miust 
have  Y/ell-trained  and  conscientious  machine  tenders,  v.'ho  know  how  to  feed  material 
in,  how  to  manipulate  the  machine  in  its  every  operation,  and  what  to  do  when 
trouble  develops.  The  good  machine  tender  is  disciplined  to  the  needs  of  his 
machine  and  cannot  put  his  ov:n  coimfort,  convenience,  or  gain  above  its  operational 
requirem.ents. 

This  is  just  as  true  in  the  economic  iTorld,  Y/e  have  to  learn  in  business 
that  no  party  to  the  process  can  long  be  allovrad  to  put  his  own  gain  above  the 
sm.ooth  and  productive  operation  of  business  as  a  lYhcle,   This  is  not  ethics:   it  is 


Edvfin  G,  Nourse  -  page  four 

engineering  experience  and  scientific  logic.  Failure  to  realize  this  fact,  hoviever, 
or  to  accept  this  discipline  lies  at  the  heart  of  the  kind  of  management-labor 
impasse  that  every  now  and  then  threatens  successful  operation  and  sustained  pros- 
perity. 

As  the  industrial  corporation  developed  in  the  United  States  and  as 
engineering  schools  developed  mere  and  more  adequate  training  in  mechanical,  chemi- 
cal, and  electric  technologies,  such  of  these  young  teclinicians  as  also  had  a  flair 
for  business  organization  and  financial  affairs  moved  rapidly  to  the  head  of  our 
great  producing  and  distributing  com.panies.   More  and  more  they  found  that  an  un- 
derstanding of  the  technology  of  natural  processes  was  not  enough  for  themselx^es  or 
for  their  understudies.  More  and  more  they  felt  the  lack  in  their  0¥m  college

The  dictionary  defines  technology  as  "system.atic  kncv: ledge  of  the  industri- 
al arts"  or  as  "applied  science."  The  art  of  conducting  modern  industry  success- 
fully requires  the  application  of  social  science  as  well  as  natural  science.   The 
time  has  passed  when  schools  of  technology  felt  that  proficiency  in  mathematics, 
physics,  and  chemistryj  in  drafting,  computing,  and  vo-iting  specifications  is  all 
that  is  required  to  prepare  for  industrial  leadership.  Y.'ith  the  growth  of  cur 
economic  life,  it  has  become  painfully  apparent  that  if  science  is  to  be  applied 
most  fruitfully  to  the  advancement  of  the  industrial  arts,  it  must  include  not 
merely  the  physics  and  chemistry  of  natural  processes  but  also  the  eccncmics,  the 
political  science,  and  the  psychology  by  i^hose  light  human  beings  can  be  organized

and  motivated  to  carry  on  a  modern  industrial  society  most  effectively. 


Public  Service  and  the  Em.ployment  Act  of  19i|6 
As  I  enter  the  home  stretch  of  this  dissertation,  I  must  of  course  mount 
my  favorite  hobby  horse — the  Emplojinent  Act  of  1946.  This  expcrim-cntal  development 
within  our  frame  of  goverranent  seems  to  me  admirably  to  point  a  moral  and  adorn  the 
tale  I  have  been  trying  to  unfold  as  to  the  relationship  betv:een  technology  and 
public  service. 

The  essential  feature  of  this  important  nev/  statute  is  that  it  enunciates 
a  natiijnal  policy  of  mobilizing  all  our  organizational  resources,  public  and  private^ 
for  a  sustained  high  level  of  national  prodaction  and  the  correspondingly  high  level 
of  national  living.   As  a  means  of  accom.plishing  this  great  national  purpose,  it 
turns  away  from  any  trick  device,  panacea,  or  "money  magic."  With  implicit  recog- 
nition of  the  fact  that  this  is  the  age  of  science  in  econom.ic  and  social  relations 
not  less  than  physical  processes,  the  Act  sets  up  a  sort  of  scientific  clearing 
house  in  the  Executive  Office  (the  Council  of  Economic  Advisers)  and  a  somev;hat 
comparable  one  in  the  Congress  (the  Joint  Committee  on  the  Econcm.ic  Report  of  the 
President).  Both  bodies  are  designed  to  integrate  analysis  r.f  the  problems  of  all 
parts  of  the  economy  as  a  basis  for  f orm.ulating  policies  that  Yiall  advance  the 
v:elfare  of  the  economy  as  a  v.diolej, 

In  so  far  as  the  potentialities  of  this  analytical  or  scientific  approach 
arc  appreciated  by  divisions  of  govermient  and  by  the  organizations  of  private 
business,  it  v/ould  bo  possible  to  obtain  the  goals  of  economic  stabilizaticn  and 
economic  cxi:)ansion  at  a  rate  comjnensurate  with  the  resources  available  and  to  avoid 
the  severe  interruptions  which  thus  far  have  constituted  a  recurrent  source  of 
waste  and  frustration  in  modern  industrial  society.  If  such  a  purpose  is  to  be 


Edwin  G,  Nourse  -  page  si^: 

realised,  technology  as  systematic  kno\»fledge  of  the  industrial  arts  must  be  geared 
to  the  public  service,  that  is,  to  proinoting  the  total  welfare  rather  than  advancing 
the  narrcvily  conceived  or  short-range  interests  of  any  particular  area,  interest, 
group,  or  faction. 

It  was  my  hope  that  each  m.ember  of  the  Council  of  Economic  Advisers  v;ould 
be  equipped  not  merely  v/ith  high  competence  in  the  techniques  of  economic  analysis 
but  cndovred  also  yiith  a  broad  and  deep  social  philosophy.  Both  these  qualifications 
would  be  needed  if  they  were  to  weigh  and  scale  the  demands  of  the  several  parties 
to  the  economic  process  and  display  a  calm  judicial  quality  as  the  economic  attor- 
ney for  one  or  another  special  interest  carie  to  argue  the  claim.s  cf  their  respective 
clients  for  favored  treatment.   It  was  my  hope  also  that,  with  that  kind  of  staff 
assistance,  the  various  members  of  the  Executive  family — Cabinet  officers  and  agency 
heads — -viould  be  able  to  resist  the  political  pressures  brought  upon  them  by  busi- 
ness, labor,  agricultural,  and  financial  constituencies  or  by  representatives  of 
geographical  sections.   It  was  my  hope  that,  thus  staffed,  successive  Presidents  in 
future  might  rise  to  higher  planes  of  economic  statesm.anship  than  ive  have  knavn 
in  the  past,  and  that  the  impressive  character  of  the  evidence  brought  to  bear  in 
support  of  policies  calculated  to  advance  the  vrelfare  of  the  whole  country  might 
vfxn   the  support  of  citizen  voters,  V'ith  our  constantly  rising  standard  of  general 
education,  v:ith  our  better  understanding  of  scientific  principles  and  their  applica- 
tion to  the  industrial  arts  both  physical  and  social,  such  a  substitution  of  power 
politics  to  economic  statesmanship  is  the  hope  of  our  democracy  in  the  future. 

As  yet,  how^ever,  the  promise  of  the  Employment  Act  has  not  been  fulfilled. 
There  has  not  been  a  willingness  to  weigh  the  claims  of  all  special  interest  groups 
as  parts  of  a  total  productive  program  and  to  formula.te  and  follov/  those  policies 
that  "on  balance"  will  do  most  to  promo  "to  the  smooth  functioning  of  the  economy  as 


Edwin  G.  Nourse  -  page  seven 

a  whole.  Ariiong  our  people  the  "ginime"  spirit  is  rampant  and  the  demand  for  personal 
security  is  put  above  the  old  spirit  of  personal  creative  achievement.   Political 
agrarianism  and  political  laborism  have  forged  ahead  of  the  political  capitalism  of 
the  recent  pa.st,  and  the  merger  of  farmer  and  laborer  into  an  unbeatable  coalition 
seems  to  be  the  pattern  to  which  we  are  being  adoitly  led  today. 

It  would  be  a  sad  commentary  if,  in  this  day  when  popular  education  has 
brought  us  such  command  of  the  technologies  of  material  objects  and  natural  forces, 
we  should  fail  in  our  grasp  of  the  technologies,  that  is  the  applied  social  science, 
of  the  human  mind  and  spirit  associated  in  business  ventures  and  in  free  political 
lifco  But  such  failure  Vi^ill  confront  us  unless,  ere  we  face  life  and  attack  it,  our 
educational  institutions  give  to  all  of  us  the  firm  equipoise  of  an  adequate  phil- 
osophy of  life.   Not  only  those  who  go  on  to  public  position  must  have  an  ideal 
of  public  service.  Every  one  v;ho  labors  at  a  private  job  must  realize  that  ho  has 
both  an  obligation  and  an  opportunity  of  sound  public  service  by  making  his  best 
personal  contribution  to  ma>:imumi  production.  For  only  by  maximising  the  total 
product  can  the  several  shares  be  steadily  enlarged.

CHICAGO  —  College  engineering  teachers  ought  to  be  taught  how  to  teach, 
a  dean  of  engineering  asserts^ 

New  instructors  must  know  their  subject,  but  the  colleges  should  tell 
them  how  to  put  it  across^  according  to  Dro  John  To  Rettaliata,  dean  of  engin^eriiig 
at  Illinois  Institute  of  Technology,) 

Ke  urged  more  adequate  orientation  programs  for  new  instructors  at  a 
recent  meeting  of  the  Illinois-Indiana  section  of  the  American  Society  for 
Er^ineering  Education  at  Purdue  universityo 

Dean  Rettaliata  advised  colleges  to  follow  the  lead  of  industry  in  this 
respecte 

"Progressive  industrial  concerns  have  formal  orientation  programs  that 
properly  acclimate  and  prepare  the  newcomer  for  the  duties  he  is  to  perfcrm<,  Such 
prn.grajES  acquaint  the  employe  with  some  of  the  specialization  peculiar  to  the 
particular  company i, "  he  saidr 

Dr,  Rettaliata  pointed  out  that  the  formal  education  nf  the  prospective 
sngineering  teacher  contains  little  to  make  him  adept  in  future  pedagogical 
pursuits, 

''In  fact,"  he  said,  ''there  are  some  who  claim  that  emphasis  upon  research 
las  an  aggravating  influence  on  the  attainment  of  good  teacherso"  He  noted  that 


-more- 


rettaliata,  asec— Illinoic  Tsch,  page  two 

the  most  desirable  qualification  of  a  teacher  is  a  thorough  knowledge  of  subject 
matter,  but  too  frequently,,  the  implication  is  that  such  knowledge  guarantees  a 
good  teacher» 

"Mere  possession  of  understanding  is  not  autOTatically  accompanied  by  the 
ability  to  impart  it  to  others,.  It  is  this  transmission  of  the  understanding  of 
subject  matter  from  teacher  to  point  of  reception  by  the  student  that  must  be 
accomplished,"  he  believes.. 

The  principal  intent  of  an  orientation  program  would  be  to  develop  the    ' 
transmission  factor  in  all  its  aspects  and  to  acquaint  the  inexperienced  teacher 
with  the  principles  of  effective  teaching. 

The  program  should  include: 

In  iPreparatidn'of .  departmentai.-curricula,  courses o  ■  course  outlines.,  and 
individual  lesson  plans,  emphasising  the  educal.ional  objectives  to  be  cbtaiued.> 

2„  Proper  procedure  for  conducting  class  sessions,  including  presentat  ..on^ 
integration  into  the  complete  program,  and  possible  application  of  course  material 
in  future  jobsr 

3o-  Familiarity  with  the  salient  features  of  public  speaking  procedures,. 

4o  Proper  use  of  educational  aidSc. 

5c  Proper  manner  of  measuring  the  progress  of  the  studento" 

"Undoubtedly  there  is  room  for  improvement  in  engineering  teaching" s  hs 
concluded,  "and  much  progress  can  be  accomplished  through  well-conducted  orienta-f-ic 
programs  o "

CHICAGO — Automobile  horns  can  be  made  less  raucus  and  yet  just  as  loud,  an 
acoustics  expert  at  Armour  Research  Foundation  of  Illinois  Institute  oi  Technology 
said  today.  The  formula;  cut  out  some  of  the  high  notes. 

An  automobile  horn  that  could  be  heard  asfar  as  the  present  variety  but  which 

would  have  a  more  pleasing  sound  is  predicted  by  Daniel  Callav^ray,  associate  physicist 

at  the  Foundation.  He  spoke  at  a  national  meeting  of  the  Acoustical  Society  of 

America  at  State  College,  Pa. 

Calla'-vay  described  a  two-month  study  of  horns,  sponsored  by  the  Foundation  as 
I 
part  of  a  general  survey  of  all  city  noises,  which  led  to  his  assertion  that  the 

higher  pitches  of  horn  blasts  ought  to  be  removed.  He  said  it  could  be  done  at  lav 

cost,  with  the  saving  on  nerves  more  than  malcing  up  the  difference. 

Three  types  of  car  horns  were  investigated: 

1, — electrically  operated  trumpet,  made  up  in  pairs  and  harmonically  tuned. 
These  are  found  on  most  new  cars, 

2, — compressed  air,  the  long,  deluxe  models  sometimes  custom  installed  on  ex- 
pensive cars. 

3. — vibrating  diaphragm,  or  "beep-beep"  type,  the  least  expensive.

page  tvTo  -  horns 

Models  of  all  three  types  got  the  same  treatment  and  analysis,  both  in  the 
laboratory  and  the  field.  Readings  were  made  Y;ith  standard  acoustical  instruments. 

The  scientists  first  made  hannonic  analyses  of  the  horns  in  a  laboratory  anecho~ 
ic  chamber,  a  heavily  insulated  room  virithout  distracting  sounds  especially  designed 
for  sound  measurements.  They  made  recordings  of  various  honks,  and  drevv  graphs 
shovring  the  intensity  and  pitch  of  the  blasts. 

Next  they  took  outdoor  measurements  at  distances  from  10  to  $00  feet,  Simula  ty- 
ing pedestrians  at  various  distances.  They  also  took  instrument  readings  simulating 
the  sound  that  would  be  heard  by  another  driver  in  a  closed  car. 

The  horns  ranged  from  100  to  115  decibels  at  10  feet,  Callaway  reported,  which 
is  "very  loud"  since  traffic  measures  from  70  to  90  decibels  on  the  sound  meter. 

But  the  high  frequency,  high  pitched  part  of  a  horn's  sound  could  well  be  elim- 
inated, Callai'j-ay  asserted.  He  would  cut  cut  all  sound  above  1200  cycles  per  second, 
leaving  the  lov:er  frequencies  as  they  are.  He  did  this  electronically  on  a  record- 
ing of  a  horn  blast  and  reported  improvement. 

■"(Tork  on  a  special  horn  using  only  the  frequencies  belov/  1200  cycles  per  second 
is  going  on  at  the  Foundation,  he  said. 

"The  worst  thing  about  automobile  horns  is  hew  people  use  them,"  admitted 
Callav/ay.  "V,'e  can't  solve  that  in  the  laboratory." 

The  general  survey  of  noise  in  Chicago  has  included  an  extensive  study  of 
vehicular  noise  in  traffic  and  noise  in  industrial  and  residential  areas.  The  pur- 
pose of  the  year-long  survey  is  to  determine  the  sources  of  all  types  of  city 
noise  and  to  gather  information  useful  to  those  who  will  write  anti-noise  . 
legislation.

SEATTLE  ~-  Today's  industrial  engineer  is  the  link  between  the  slide  rule 
and  the  balance  sheeto  What's  more,  he's  a  rather  rare  bird,  according  to  George 
So  Speer,  personnel  counselor*, 

"The  person  who  chooses  industrial  engineering  has  an  interest  in  scientific 
study  or  mechanical  analysis.  However,  his  interest  differs  from  that,  for  example; 
of  the  mechanical  engineer  in  that  he  is  less  interested  in  the  machine  as  a  machine 
than  in  the  use  to  which  it  can  be  puto 

"He's  more  interested  in  people  than  an  engineer,  and  more  interested  in 
machines  than  a  businessman,"  Speer  saidj  "a  curious  balance  between  the  technology 
of  industry  and  its  business  operationo" 

Speaking  today  before  members  of  the  American  Society  for  Engineering 
Education  here  at  their  annual  meeting,  Speer,  director  of  the  Institute  for 
Psychological  Services  of  Illinois  Institute  of  Technology,  reported  on  results  of 
interest  preference  tests. 

The  interest  preference  tests  include  I68  questions  in  which  the  Individual 
was  asked  to  indicate  which  of  three  subjects  he  prefers  most  and  leasto  Tests  were 
measured  in  nine  areas:  mechanical,  computational,  persuasive,  scientific,  artistic, 
literary,  musical,  social  service,  and  clerical. 

"Individual  answers  are  of  little  importance,  "Speer  said,  "but  patterns 
based  on  the  cumulative  answers  to  all  questions  indicate  interest  preference.

apeer,  aaee — Illinois  Tech,  page  two 

"These  tests  showed  the  industrial  engineer  possesses,  in  common  with  other 
engineers,  an  interest  in  working  with  numbers  and  mechanical  objects.   In  addition, 
he  has  a  marked  interest  in  activities  which  require  direct  and  personal  contact 
with  people, 

"It  is  significant  that  in  many  traits  the  industrial  engineer  more  nearly 
resembles  the  man  in  business  and  economics  than  he  does  many  other  engineering 
groupsn " 

The  industrial  engineering  student,  like  the  student  of  business  and 
economics  shows  an  interest  in  computational,  persuasive,  and  literary  activities, 
a  mj  Id  interest  in  social  organizations^  and  a  disregard  toward  artistic,  musical, 
or  clerical  activitiesr 

"The  basic  difference  betv/een  the  industrial  engineer  and  the  mechanical, 
civil,  electrical,  or  chemical  engineer"  Speer  concluded,  "is  his  awareness  of  the 
individual  or  human  problems  related  to  his  worko."

CHICAGO — Research  investments  in  sponsored  projects  at  Armour  Research 
Foundation  of  Illinois  Institute  of  Technology  increased  11. U  per  cent  during  the 
first  eight  months  of  the  l$h9-^0   fiscal  year  over  the  same  period  a  year  ago,  Dr. 
Haldon  A.  Leedy,  Foundation  director,  announced  today. 

A  gain  of  about  $500,000  in  total  gross  volume  is  estimated  for  the  en- 
tire year  ending  Augijst  31,  1950,  he  reported. 

"Industry's  increasing  support  of  research  is  reflected  in  these  rising 
figures,"  Dr.  Leedy  said,  "An  estimated  $U, 625, 000  in  total  projected  research 
volume  for  the  year  represents  the  amount  of  money  invested  by  industry,  government- 
al agencies,  and  industrial  associations  for  the  development  of  new  products  and 
processes  and  the  discovery  of  new  scientific  facts." 

Sijcty-two  per  cent  of  the  projects  nov/  active  are  being  done  under  con- 
tract for  industrial  firms,  Dr.  Leedy  announced.  Of  the  industrial  sponsors,  more 
than  half  have  placed  previous  projects  at  the  Foundation. 

A  staff  of  665  persons  has  vrorked  on  212  research  projects  so  far  this 
year,  according  to  Dr,  Leedy.  Technical  personnel,  who  specialize  in  various  fields 
of  science,  total  U21,  while  the  remainder  of  the  staff  includes  some  75  expert 
craftsmen  employed  in  Foundation  shops.   In  addition  to  sponsored  projects.

Armour  pays  for  fundamental  studies  and  public  service  activities  out  of  its  own 
funds. 

The  acquisition  of  a  neu-ly  remodeled  Physics  Research  building  and  other 
space  will  add  more  than  IiO,000  square  feet  to  the  Foundation  plant.  Expansion 
in  laboratory,  shop,  and  office  space  during  the  year  19U9-50  v/ill  bring  plant  total 
to  "more  than  three  and  one-half  acres  under  eleven  roofs,"  Dr,  Leedy  asserted. 

Among  public  service  projects  sponsored  by  the  Foundation  are  a  survey 
of  city  noises,  dust  abatement  program,  a  study  of  orthopedic  equipment  for 
crippled  children,  information  services  on  rare  chemicals  and  crj^'stallographic  data, 
and  work  on  the  hemolysis  of  blood  and  trace  elements  in  soils. 

Armour  Research  Foundation  is  a  not-for-profit  organization  created  in 
1936  to  perform  research  and  development  primarily  for  industrial  concerns.  It  has 
grown  each  year  in  size  and  volume  of  work  and  navi   ranks  second  among  independent 
research  institutions.  Fields  of  interest  include  physics,  metals,  chemistry 
and  chemical  engineering,  applied  mecharJLcs,  electrical  engineering,  ceramics  and 
minerals,  magnetic  recording,  and  international  research.

No  tv'TO  groups  in  the  American  political,  social,  and  economic  system  are 
more  closely  allied  or  more  dependent  upon  each  other  than  education  and  in- 
dustry;-);- for  business  supports  our  cducati-'inal  institutions,  either  directly 
or  indirectly,  on  the  one  hand,  and  education  supplies  in  large  measure  the 
creative,  dynamic,  productive  minds  vhich  shortly  become  the  leaders  of 
business  enterprise. 

This  interdependence,  considered  entirely  proper  principally  because  it 
is  mutually  beneficial,  has  been  Viridely  accepted  as  an  inevitable  part  of  the 
economic  system  -which  has  produced  a  higher  standard  of  living  in  a  shorter 
period  of  time  than  aijy  other  known  to  the  virorld  up  to  nov/.  Almost  everyone 
favors  education:  for  example,  our  citizens  will  complain  less  about  taxes 
for  educational  purposes  than  those  used  for  any  other  purpose.  Almost 
everyone  favors  our  system  of  business  enterprise:  even  those  who  espouse 
state  socialism  v;ould  not  abandon  the  fmits  of  the  present  system, 

-"-Throughout  this  discussion  the  term  business  is  intended  to  mean 
business  and  industry. 


two 

Business  and  education,  then^  are  bedfellows  because  they  v/ant  and  need 
each  other,  V/hat  are  some  of  the  areas  in  v.^hich  each  performs  services  of 
benefit  to  the  other? 


Education,  of  course,  justifies  its  existence  on  the  basis  of  learning 
and  research.   It  molds  the  minds  of  the  nation's  young  people  during  a  per- 
iod vfhen  these  minds  are  most  flexible,  most  receptive,  and  probably  most 
eager.   It  instills  an  appreciation  of  the  history  and  heritage  of  the  nation, 
the  potentialities  and  limitations  of  the  system  under  vj-hich  we  live,  and  the 
hopes  and  aspirations  of  the  people  who  are  the  nation's  greatest  resource. 

Education  seeks  to  find  the  truth  on  the  abstract  level  and  to  apply  it 
on  the  practical  level,  whether  such  truth  be  buried  in  such  widely  separate 
fields  as  philosophy  and  engineering.   It  seeks  to  imp.art  the  truth  to  all 
who  will  seek  it — at  large  numbers  of  educational  centers,  located  in  mai^ 
places,  supported  in  diverse  ways  by  diverse  groups,  and  encouraged  through 
various  mechanisias  such  as  summer  sessions,  evening  classes,  short  courses, 
cooperative  programs,  in-plant  training,  conferences,  seminars,  and,   of 
course,  full-time  day  classes,  all  readily  accessible  to  those  whose  needs 
they  satisfy. 

Research  contributes  new  knowledge  by  a  constant  assault  on  the  barriers 
of  the  unknovm,  whether  they  be  social  or  scientific.  New  knowledge,  once 
found,  can  be  applied  to  the  problcnB  of  living  and  m.aking  a  living,  again 
whether  they  be  in  the  field  of  human  relations  or  in  the  coldly  factual  re- 
cesses of  the  frontiers  of  science.  The  scientific  discoveries  through  v;hich 
processes  are  refined  and  new  products  developed  have  been  dramatic]  they 
have  stimulated  the  economy  and  elevated  the  standard  of  living,  and  they 
have  captured  the  iiTiagination  of  our  people.  But  they  are  neither  less 


three 

dramatic  nor  less  iiaportant  than  social  discoveries  which  may  enable  us  to 
live  together  in  peace  and  brotherhood. 

These  arc  some  of  the  areas  in  which  education  serves  business,  Hov/ 
does  business  serve  education?  Except  for  the  direct  results  of  research  and 
the  immediate  supply  of  employables  v/hich  education  furnishes  to  business, 
the  contributions  of  business  to  education  are  more  direct. 


Probablj''  most  important,  of  course,  on  both  a  short-term  and  a  long- 
range  basis,  is  the  absorption  into  the  business  world  of  the  main  education- 
al product:  its  graduates.  Next  is  the  utilization  of  the  research  constant- 
ly underway  in  our  colleges  and  universities. 

Narrower  in  individual  scope  but  equally  important  in  total  are  such 
contributions  as; 

Encouraging  employes  to  enroll  in  part-time  study  to  increase  their 
value  to  business. 

Participating  in  cooperative  programs  in  which  students  spend  alternate 
periods  in  the  classroom  and  in  the  plant. 

Establishing  scholarships  for  f i^st-rate  young  men  and  Tvomen, 

Employing  students  (both  graduate  and  undergraduate)  during  prolonged 
vacation  periods. 

Sponsoring  formal  in-plant  educational  programs. 

Establishing  fellowships  for  graduate  study. 

Sponsoring  fundamental  research  programs. 

Contracting  for  applied  research  on  specific  problems. 

Endowing  professorships  in  specific  fields,  contributing  funds  for  ad- 
ditions to  physical  plant. 

Making  unrestricted  gifts  v/hich  enable  educators  to  expand  programs  Im^ 
paired  by  limited  tax  funds  or  insufficient  regular  income,  or  to  embark 


four 


upon  nev;  fields  of  education  and  research. 


Now,  it  is  obvious  that  the  fruits  of  a  system  in  which  education  and 
business  cooperate  are  greatest  when  the  degree  of  cooperation  is  greatest. 
Although  the  degree  has  sonetimes  been  less  than  it  should  have  been,  it  be- 
hooves each  to  support  the  other  to  the  fullest  possible  extent.   If  they  do 
notj  the  only  result  can  be  harm  for  both.   How  do  they  get  together? 

By  the  nature  of  its  methods  and  motives,  business  is  not  likely  to  make 
the  first  move.  So  education  is  wise  if  it  takes  the  initiative.  That  it 
can  succeed  is  evident  from  the  soundness  of  its  product:   that  is,  the  in- 
herent benefits  of  education  which  I  have  already  noted. 

Here,  then,  are  some  of  the  things  education  can  do  and  is  doing: 

Educators  should  participate  in  civic  and  community  affairs.   They  should 
serve  on  civic  committees,  they  should  lend  personal,  active  support  to  com- 
munity projects  (such  as  Comr.iunity  Fund  drives.  Red  Cross  drives,  etc.),  they 
should  speak  to  community  clubs,  social  organizations,  religious  groups,  and 
others.  They  should,  if  necessary,  engage  m  political  activity  to  further 
the  ends  of  education.  They  should  sell  education  day  in  and  day  out,  tvrenty- 
four  hours  a  day. 

Educators  should  seek  out  and  encourage  the  top  representatives  of  busi- 
ness to  serve  on  boards  of  trustees,  advisory  committees,  special  councils, 
and  other  groups  so  that  these  business  leaders  will  become  acquainted  with 
the  philosophy,  the  needs,  and  the  accompli  slime  nts  of  education. 

Educators  should  arrange  open  houses,  conduct  campus  tours,  sponsor 
conferences,  meetings,  and  dinners  at  Virhich  business  leaders  can  become 
better  informed  about  education. 


five 

Educational  institutions  should  establish  degree-granting  programs, 
Y/hen  consistent  with  educational  philosophy  and  practice^  and  sponsor  short 
courses,  seminars,  and  lectures  to  meet  the  specific  needs  of  business. 

Educators  should  disseminate  information  through  existing  nev/s  and  in- 
formation r^edia — the  daily  press,  wire  services,  business  publications,  semi- 
technical  .journals,  general  magazines,  radio,  and  television,  and  through 
appropriate  direct  m.ail  devices  to  tell  the  story  of  education  every  day  and 
in  every  way. 

Through  all  of  these  methods,  educators  should  strive  always  to  demon- 
strate the  mutuality  of  interests  as  betv;een  education  and  business  and  to 
narrow  and  eventually  eliminate  the  imaginary  gulf  which  etill  exists  to  some 
degree  between  the  two.  Only  by  everlastingly  i? or king  at  it  can  education 
prove  that  the  search  for  truth  and  learning  is  not  incompatible  with  the 
ways  of  business,  that  both  are  really  trj^ing  to  make  the  v/orld  a  better 
place  in  which  to  live.

Placement  of  mechanicalt  electrical,  and  civil  engineers  has  been  goodi,  and 
practically  all  architecture  and  metallurgical  engineering  graduates  have  found 
jobso   The  demand  for  fire  protection  and  safety  engineering  graduates  and  food 
technologists  has  far  exceeded  the  number  rf  men  availablec 

"Industrial  engineers  are  finding  many  opportunities  in  the  production

CHICAGO — Industrial  convprsion  to  vjar  prcduction  and  the  impending 
draft  o.f  manpower  for  military  service  have   created  a  ne-.v  demand  fcr  engineers, 
Harold  L,  Minkler,   director   of  placement  at   Illinois   Institute   of  Technology,    said 
today, 

Minkler  noted  that  several  major  companies   are  conducting  summer 
intervie^/s   on  the   campus  for   the  first  time   in  history.      Students  who  will  complete 
their  academ.ic  wcrk  this   summer  but  will  not  receive  their  degrees  until  January 
are  much  in  demand. 

An  unusual  demand  for  engineers,   particularly  design  engineers,    is 
evident,   Minkler  said.     Oil,    chem.ical,    aircraft,   and  motor  car  manufacturing  com- 
panies have   indicated  the  most  pressing  need  for  graduates, 

"A  few  months  ago  placement  personnel  in  colleges  were  vitally  concernea 
about  the  problem  of  placing  19^1  graduates,"   Minkler   said.      "Nov:   it  appears  be- 
yond any  doubt  that  no  such  problem  will  exist,    if,    in  fact,    it  ever  did." 

He  explained  that  engineering  graduates   of  the  past  year,   despite 
pessimistic  pre -graduation  predictions,   had  been  placed  as  quickly  as  those   of  any 
previous  class  and  that  starting  salaries  had  slightly  exceeded  those  of  previous 
years. 

"Even  without  partial  mobilization  for  war,  there  is  every  reason  to  be- 
lieve that  the  technological  demands  of  our  society  will  require  an  ever-increasing 
number   of   engineers   in  relation  to  the  total  v;orking  force   of   the   nation." 

This,  he  said,   coupled  r/ith  decreased  enrollment  of  freshmien  in  the   en — 

gineering  colleges  in  the  last  tv;o  years,   creates  a  real  possibility  of  a  shortage 

of  engineering  graduates  by  19^2   or  earlier,

CHICAGO — Housewives  and  industries  of  twelve  central  Illinois  counties   are 
being  assured  cheaper  and  better  electrical  service   in  the   next  five,   ten,   and 
twenty  years. 

Electrically  speaking,   the  entire   area  served  by  the  central  division  of  the 
Illinois  Paver  Company  has  been  set  up  in  a  single  room  at  Illinois   Institute   of 
Technology  here,   and  a  team  of  engineers  from  Illinois  Tech  and  Illinois  Pov/er  are 
busy  analyzing  problems   of  design  and  operation  which  will  affect  homeoiifners  in  the 
Bloomington,  Decatur,   Champaign,   and  Danville  areas. 

The  central  division  serves  most  or  all  of  Champaign,  DeWitt,   Logan,   Macon, 
McLean,   Piatt,  Taze^vell,   and  Vermilion  counties,    as  well  as  the  northeast  section 
of  Sangamon,    southern  part  of  IVoodford,   and  smaller  sections   of  Livingston  and 
Chjristian  counties. 

The  v^ork  is  being  done   on  Illinois  Tech's  $100,000  A-C  network  calculator, 
an  elaborate  instriiment  for  simulating  power   system  conditions. 

Local  experts  working  on  the  project  are:     Emerson  A,  Shultz,  RED  7, 
Decatur,   chief   system  supervisor  of  Illinois  Povrer;   and  Charles   Krause,   6l6  West 
Macon  street,  Decatur,   assistant  relay  engineer. 


Network  Calculator  -  page  tivo 

With  the  netv/ork  calculator,   any  pCTver  system  can  be  exactly  reproduced. 
Instead  of  time-cons\iming  mathematics,   an  electrical  engineer  can  set  up,   in 
niniatiire,   a  system  representing  lines  extending  for  hundreds   of  miles  and  measure 
power  and  voltages  at  any  point  under  any  condition. 

Enough  circuit  elements  are  available  to  represent  12  generating  stations, 
100  transmission  lines  or  transformers,  UO  loads,  and  18  variable  ratio  transform- 
ers. 

The  miniature   system  can  be  adjusted  to  simulate   any  operating  condition. 
From  the  readings,   the  engineers  can  immediately  determine  the  effect  of  addition- 
al loads,  methods  by  which  they  can  be  carried,   system  performance  under  normal  or 
emergency  conditions,   and  system  changes  that  can,   should,   or  must  be  made   in  the 
future. 

The  engineers  of  the  Illinois  Paver  company  supply  complete  information  on 
the  local  system  and  characteristics  of  all  lines,  generators,  transformers,  loads, 
and  voltages  are  reduced  to  calculator  values. 

The  circuits   on  the  calculator   are  then  connected  in  the  same  manner   as  the 
real  equipment  and  adjusted  to  have  equivalent  values.     When  all  conditions   are 
matched,   the  setup  is  an  exact  replica  of  the   Illinois  system. 

Changes  can  be  made,   new  lines  added,   new  loads  served,   new  generators 
put  into  operation,   etc,,    and  accurate   inmiediate  measurements  can  be  made   at  all 
points  to  shovY  the  effects   of   such  changes, 

Evrett  B,  Eggers,   electrical  engineer  at  Illinois  Tech,    is   in  charge   of 
the  calculator.

I'he  MLhibit  is  a  graphic  fixpositi."*n  of  the  scienc;'  of  geometry,  "hfc  subject 
fratt«r  has  been  de;:igne(i  tn  shae  not  on}.y   tlie  useful  aspects  of  geoi^try,  but  also

Dr,  ?.%nser  first  conceived  the  ides,  of  an  interesting  geometry  exhibit  several 
years  ago  while  viewing  a  conventional  sathomatics  display.  To  h  ai,  the  exMbii  seosed 
too coapllcated  to  arouse  interest  in  the  overat:e  person  and  too  basic  and  "old  hat" 
to  i,he  expert. 

Dr,  Mengcr,  one  o'  the  world's  foreasOEt  mathematicians,  feels  that  aBt^Jen;atic8 
is  a  live,  ov^r-changins  field  based  on  set  aiKi  ancient  laws.  In  hia  spare  tliae  he 
developed  his  own  ideas  of  an  interesting,  informative,  and  mathejnatical  ly  sound  exfiibit, 

iie  suggested  his  project  to  IllinoiB  Tech  authorities,  but  funds  were  not 

irasedistely  available.  Fortunately,  the  Institute  received  a  gift  last  s;  rinf;  opecifi-

CHICAGO—Housewives  and  indv.strie.s  of  Indianapolis  and  V-arion  county  have 
be  n  aar-ured  continued  fine  electrical  service  as  a  reeult  of  studies  recentljr 
completed, 

i^lectrically  speaking,  the  entire  area  se.-ved  by  Indianapolis  Power  and 
Ught  CoEpacy  was  set  up  iri  a  single  room  at  Illinois  Institute  of  Technology  here, 
and  a  isas  of  ea^;infcers  frora  Illinois  Tech  and  Indianapolis  Fower  analyzed  problems 
of  design  and  operation  which  will  affect  hoaeowners  of  Sarion  county. 

The  work  was  done  last  week  on  Illinv->is  Tech's  .$ltX,0'0  A-C  network 
calailator,  an  elaborate  instrument  for  sismlatinfj  {xmer  conditions. 

Local  ex]>erts  who  worked  on  the  <,roject  are:  Jaiaes  a.  Jordan,  ii230  l^inthrop 
aBenaej  ^tichard  K.  Jordan,  hhl  North  Bosart  avenue;  and  A.  A.  Funktiouser,  8^8  Eastern 
avenue  J  all  oS:  the  Operating  Department, 

With  the  network  calculator,  any  power  sycterr.  cati  b     exactly  reproduced. 
Instead  of  trte-consuaaing  natheffistics,  an  electrical  engineer  can  set  up,  in  miniature, 
a  system  representing  lines  extending  for  hundreds  of  ndles  and  measure  power  and 
voltages  at  any  point  under  any  condition. 

Enough  circuit  elements  are  avail  ble  to  repreaent  12   -encrating  stations, 
100  transEdssion  lines  or  transformers,  UO  loads,  and  18  variable  ratio  traraXorssers.
