TIE PREVALENCE OF IN.
EFFICIENCY

In this time OF social disturb
ancc, every element charges every
other with incfficiency. If the
farmer, says the manufacturer.
would run his business systcmati-
calIy. food prices would be lower.
The farmer passes the buck to the
railroad and other services, which
If run efficiently. he says, would
need no higher rates. And so it
goes. And the people who find
the most fault are often the most
unproductive themselves.
Yet it is in the main true that
modern industry is not efficient.
1t takes centuries to perfect the
processes in any form Of work.
Two generations ago the Amer
lean people either worked on iso-
lated farms, or in small factories.
They toilcd long hours but i'll an
easy going way. As their demands
were few, their inefficient meth
DDS were sufficient to provide for
their simple wants.
The present generation has in
herited their lack OF system and OF
industrial education. The tech
nical arts and sciences have had
to be built from the ground up,
keeping pace with the marvellous
development of invention aud dis
covery. Factory production has
developed efficiency better than
anything else. as it is the simplest
problem. With a lot of people
working together under one roof,
it is fairly easy to organize them
well.
Another generation will give
young people destined to be man
ual workers, a far better prepare
ton. People will not blunder into
their life work SO mitch, nor waste
long years in haphazard and UNI
directed effort. They will be fit
ed for their special careers, SO that
they shall have high standards of
achievement and know how to
work them out. SO it will be in
all callings. A race of scientific
and highly organized workers
will produce a common standard
of comfort far beyond the present
level.
Education, training, and bust
ness government are the factors
that will produce most of this ad.
vance, rather than quarrelling
over the division of the profits Of
business.
