PLEA FOR EFFICIENCY
IN THE NATIONS LIFE
DR.. W. W. Campbell Says America
Has Great Need of tscientific
Methods

SAN FRANCISCO, August I'm OPEN
ing the convention here today of the
American Association for the Advance
ment of Science. the president, DR.. w.
w. Campbell, director of Lick Observa-
tory, delivered an address on Science
and Civilization"
DR.. Campbell urged a fuller applica-
tion of the scientific spirit to all phases
of modern life.
Americas Need Great.
THE human race" he said. needs
above everything else the conviction
that the principles of science rule
everywhere. and that the problems Of
personal and national life are not
solved so long as any important forces
are ignored. The need is especially
great in our own country, where isola-
ton from other countries and the ex-
istence of immense natural resources
have let US seem to have kept up with
international progress in spite OF our
wasteful and inefficient methods.
1t were we'll to recognize that entry
upon world affairs, which we cannot
long avoid. will reveal costly weak
nesses.
Limits to Efficiency.
1.-The appeal of science for the adop-
ton of scientific methods in the daily
life of the people in the governments
of community. state and nation in
the settling of international questions,
is not an appeal for efficiency at all
costs. The man who worships scien-
tific efficiency or the man who pushes
his religion too far may acquire a
harsh and selfish view of life: pity ana
charity may drop out of his Vocabu-
larry"
