In recent article in Iowa Factor

stem, head of the mechanics arts diyi-
sion of the college, characterized the
situation In this manner.
The fact Is that Iowa has been Civ

tention to agriculture. The state has
been as foolish as man who. on &C
count of his pride in one brawny arm
should leave the other strapped TO his
side, crippled for want of proper de.
velopment. Not even Iowa can keer

manufacturing still looms large ana
important.
Yet, though manufacturing indus
tries are SO extensive and their oppor-
tunities for development are almost
limitless. the state is not spending a
dollar to meet the urgent need of the
factories for trained mechanics and ar
tisans. 1t maintains the mechanicc
arts division of the state college for
the education OF scientific engineers
but that reached only comparative
few. The great mass of boys and men
who must work in the factories Of the
state have no opportunity whatever OF
getting an education for their work.

nor does it maintain local trade

Y The American nation will not be
able to hold its place among the indus,
trial nations of the world with any
thing short of complete and adequate
system of agricultural and Industrial
education. The keynote of Germany's
industrial progress has been and is
that there must be greater skill and

America has led all the nations in the
doctrine of universal education, but
has fallen behind in training for prac-
