WORK OF ENGINEER

much stress on legislation and too lit
tie on execution; we do not even
reach the stage of a working plan. A
new law is offered as thee ure-all,
whatever the evil that appears, and in
devising the new law often the chief
feature sought is novelty; at least the
remedy proposed must look new. The
engineers methods are different. both
in planning his new structures and in
putting them to use: to meet new re-
.quirements he usually adopts well
tested plans; he naturally seeks the
safety of experience And his struct-
3 ure once erected, his machinery in
stalled or his process perfected, he
/ provides for its operation in accord
ance with his plans. This reliance
upon well tested facts of experience.
this attention to the many details
which taken together provide the re-
quisite factor of safety this Seeing
the thing through" are all working
habits that the engineer-trained citi-
zen can well take over into his politi-
cal life. AS | read American history.
u believe that the intensely practical
yet altogether progressive leadership
of George Washington in affairs of
state was possible because he was
thoroughly a man of affairs. an ex-
plorer and pioneer a leader in exper-
mental agriculture, an administrator
OF business, a promoter of interstate
waterways, and even a drainage en-
gineer The earliest precedent that
we have here in America, then, is that
an engineer makes the best type of
prsdent but most of us can only
aspire to be useful private citizens,
and more useful if active in public af-
fairs.
The constructive habit is sadly
needed in these days of change The
critic is abroad in the land and he /
attacks our institutions as the wreck
er rather than as the builder My /
own conception of political recon-
struction is best illustrated by what /
we have all seen, the erection of a new I
railroad bridge The bridge engineer
may well be taken as the type of
worker we need in public life. You
have seen how. with his plans pre-
pared to the last rivet, he has replac-
ed the small and inadequate and pos
sibly weakened bridge with the larg-
ar and stronger and up-tO -date struc-
ure and he has done this without in
to traffic His plans pro-
tide for one essential that is lacking
n too many UtOpian schemes: the
bridge workers build up faster than
hey tear down. and therefore there is
llways a bridge to use
This nation of ours is going con-
,ern; indeed. the rate of our pro-
,ress is much more rapid than many ,
# our statesmen realize. Changes
must be made to meet the demands of
he heavier traffic, new structures
must be erected. new motive power :
must be provided, and the effective I
itizen of today is one who can see
head of the present moment, who i,
an plan to meet safely the demands g
+ the future, and who has likewise
he will to build the needed structures
'ithout tearing down too rapidly the
ouse of state in which we live. l be- {

"IF HAD A MILLION"

Well, fellows, remarked an oldtimer in the office the other morning, "it be- gins to look as though a fortune is coming my way"
 You don't say." came the chorus from his fellow slaves. Struck oil on the old homestead Have you bought a gents furnishing store?'
 rNo-you missed it entirely An uncle of mine over in the Old Country kicked in and they say I'm the only living relative. The old man, so they tell me, made a fortune in the brick business

 Before the bunch could digest this unexpected reply, the oldest man in the group observed that one never knows just what he'll do under sup posed conditions until he actually finds himself under those conditions.
 T recall that when I was only a youngster, my chum and I, living near the sea as we did, shipped with a sailing vessel bound for St. Pierre It was on the way home, having left port in consort with the barkentine Ruby, that we ran into a terrible storm off St. InOmaS lSlanQ.
 Boys, it was a dreadful storm re- member well how we saw the Ruby driven on to an island and dashed to pieces, losing every soul on board. It was a sight that made us tremble, particularly because we had had sup per with the captain and his family on the ship the night before. The captain owned his ship, had his family on board; kept his library there and his organ and everything that made the shipa comfortable home for him. It had been his home.
 Seeing that ship and crew lost be- fore our eyes didn't help ease our fears about the storm. It was such storm at sea as writers couldn't picture. The wind blew at a hurricane. Waves were actually mountain high and they broke over our little schooner one after an- other. We were flashed to the maStS and dashed to the wheel to keep from being swept overheard. And water spouts They were all about us. How we ever lived through it has always been beyond me.
 You know, that wind blew clear to Africa. It took us 72 days to get back. And during all that time all we had to eat was salt meat. Salt pork cod fish, ham and all such. And as we were nearing home, coming up along the south Atlantic coast, one morning the master said to me, Son he says, whats the first thing you are going to do when you get ashore" And said. The first thing I'm going to do is to get me something to eat that isn't salty. I'm going to get me a bowl of

The thing for the of Phoenix keep mind is that there is only thing them eide at the municipal election Tuesday is whether the present administrator tlnued. whether the progress it has made shall be halted and we shall go back to start a line maybe in a new direction.
