ADEQUATE TRAINING OF

tion work of the world would be
done by American engineers, and in
any case they are sure to get a fair
share Of it; but it seems a shame
that this country should miss such
a golden opportunity as that which
lies before it for securing the lions
share.
Eighth. The capacity of the old,
experienced, and well-established
American engineers for doing work
is practically unlimited, provided
that there be no shortage of young,
properly educated assistants; be
cause most technical men of mature
years have developed highly the ia
Guilty Of management. On that ac-
count, the average total annual am
cunt of work engineered by such
men in this country could readily
be increased five-fold, or possibly
even ten-fold, without causing un-
due overstress, either physical or
mental; and, consequently, the great
mass of the work Of world-recon-
struction could emanate from the
United States and be handled abroad
by American engineers.
Ninth. II is beyond question that,
for the next ten years or more, en-
gineering is everywhere going to be
the most lucrative of all professions.
From these nine premises, what
is the important deduction to be
drawnf
Evidently il is that, by some means
or other, we must manage not only
to prevent any falling Off in the at
tendance at our technical schools
both during and directly after the
war, but also greatly TO increase it.
And how can this be done?
The answer TO this question is
not difficult. II is as follows:
First. BY urging more young
men to go to college, and by per-
suading their parents that it is their
duty to send the boys there for the
ultimate good Of both themselves
and the country.
Second. By inducing all sub
freshmen who have shown any spe-
cial aptitude for mathematics, me-
chanics, or chemistry, to take the
technical courses.
Third. BY discouraging the en-
listment into the army and navy OF
all students in technical institutions
but, on the contrary, by encouraging
them TO remain and graduate, il
possible. OF course, those who are
drafted will have TO serve, for IL
manifestly be unfair to the
rest of the youths of the country to
excuse a man from going to the
front simply because he is tech
nical student. Such drafted stu
dents, however, should generally be
sent to the engineer corps, because
their services in that branch of the
army would probably be more ef-
fectiye than in any other, and be-

In Article III OF the present proposal

we understand that the intention OF the
present proposal is to limit the rate of
company's dividends paid under Item
to per cent as maximum, but as
there may be some question as to the
wording of Articles xxi and XX1II in
this connection, we would recommend
under Item s, deductions from gross reve-
nue., Article Xxi. that clarifying state

CD Limitation of right of city to re-
quire company to furnish equipment.
:. Under the second paragraph of Article
V we would recommend that while the
city retain the option TO require the
company TO supply tracks, third-rail,
signals and rolling stock. 1t should not
be limited by the provision as to the
company's ability TO secure funds at not
exceeding per cent interest. In other
words. the city should have the right TO
require the company to furnish these
items at a rate of interest to be APP
proved by Councils provided the city did
not desire to furnish them at less rate
of interest.
There are several other suggestions of
minor Importance that we have brought
or will bring to your attention informally.
In conclusion, we believe that the
present proposal constitutes a business
like basis of contract, fair alike to the
company as to the city, and permitting
during the long period of the lease rea-
sonable adjustments of operating condi-
tions, practicable regulation of rates of
fare and comprehensive development and
extension of both rapid transit and sur
face lines Respectfully submitted.
