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

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

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;
baby contest for children of students and f-:iculty; and the annual Alumni Reunion
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

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!
1
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
ugly J, festering wounds v;8re an offense to the senses,, A war
correspondent in the ».'ard looked on for a momenta and said;^
"Sister 5, I \70uldn''t do your work for a million dollars S" The
Sister looked up and amiledj, then replied cuietlyi "Neither
would II"

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."

Construction of a research building for the Association of American Railroads
on the campus of Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago illustrates the mutual
benaiit inherent in industry-education cooperation, Dr. Henry T, Heald, president
of Illinois Tech, said today,
Dro Heald and Vlilliam T, Faricy, president of the AAR, vrere the main speakers
#// 0CO,OOa
at the dedication of the Association's nev.'- -SsJ^OOj-GSf) Central Research Laboratory,
one of 11 new structures built on the Institute campus since 19^3-
Dr, Heald said the laboratorj^ is tangible evidence of the recognition of
"the important role scientific and engineering research plays in the progress of
American industry."
"Here is proof," he said, "that the vital segment of American industry repre-
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
architecture c
It is located along the Ne.v York Central-Reck Island right-of-way, at the
norbhivest corner of Illinois Tech's projected 110-acre campus on the central south

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

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
-more-
langrehr^ graduate — Illinois Tech, page three
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,"

Tbs Tie Betaraen Engineering and Economics
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
-aore—
EdiTin G, Nourse - page tliree
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
preparation of training in economic analysis, in labor relations, miarket relations,
and public relations, and in an understanding of the broad economic and social
forces which in the last analysis condition the economic v/orld within Vifhich the
productive and distributive operations of the individual com.pany must be carried one
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
Edwin G, Nourse - page five
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

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.
-more-
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 .

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.
-more-
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.
Progress report - page tivo
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.

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.
