knows now, but which, In time,
the bureau of standards ought to
be able to discover, is the capacity
of big bridge girders. We have
been building very large bridges
almost by rule of thumb, and as
result a bridge sometimes goes
down. We haveNgot to find a
method of testing Orders, partly
because the railroads and others
need the information, but chiefly
to insure the safety of the millions
of people who cross the bridges.
That is what I mean by "serv-
ice," and that is the character of
work that can be done by every
one Of the bureaus of the depart
ment of commerce. When we do
that we will be doing what the
people expect and demand of their
government.
1 cheerfully pledge myself to
that policy.

high descent were gone forever.
The humble iron pot, the turf
basket, the old quill pen and the
tea kettle were there just as good
as ever"
