sor Langley and the Wright Brothers
who taught men to fly.
1t is simply automatic that the
world has reached the stage where
Science has entered everyday life
to a degree that even our fathers
never dreamed Physical forces and
natural resources are harnessed to
the use of man, and the miracle
workers who can control these I'll
tans are essential members of the
body polite.
The compelling argument for en-
gineers to step forward as citizens
is the evident fact that politics has
not kept pace with science. Take
the political conditions of this or
any other country, of this Or any
other day. They are characterized
by uncertainty, confusion, and haz-
ards that the business man would at
once cut out of his own and should
eliminate from the nations bust,
ness. On the kings highway Of an
cient times slaves worked without
respite to make smooth the path
for royal use, and to-day the Amer
lean railroad invests millions to
straighten curves or reduce grades,
but on our political right-of-Way OBJ
structions and obstacles which make
all progress expensive, if not uncer-
tain, are allowed to remain simply
because these s0-called institutions
are our heritage from our fathers
and our fathers fathers.
The scientist who simply seeks
truth for truths sake will surely lose
the larger part of life, for truth that
serves man, science that benefits
humanity, is the only kind whose
quest is worth making a life work
The most philosophic Of American
biologists, Professor Chamberlin, af-
ter studying extensively climatic
in the long geologic past
and after weighing carefully the pos
sibilities of disaster to our earth
from collision with some star, has
shown that we have good reason to
measure the future Availability Of the
earth at millions or tens Of millions,
if not, indeed, hundreds Of millions
of years Sharing Professor Cham
berlin's inspiring belief in the prob
ability of racial longevity do we not
gain a real incentive to scientific
research into the great utilization of
the forces of nature, an added argu
ment for the application of the
truths of science to civic progress,
and a larger faith that the Golden
Age is the future-that the highest
development of our country and the
world is to be witnessed by those
who are to follow us? Are not our
ideals practical and is not such
vision a call to larger service?
