A number of scientist employed
in the Bureau OF Standards have re-
mained with the bureau, 1t is said. be-
cause they are interested in their
work, and know that in the govern
ment service they will not be worried
by shut downs or industrial unrest
They also know that they are with
the biggest going concern in the
country and that there is sort Of
dignity attached to the fact that they
are in the service of the government
after every war there is certain
amount of business increase and this
late war has been especially SO for
scientific businesses" an official said
THE war was conducted on a
scientific basis, and showed that much
could be done by science which here
tofore was deemed impossible. This
naturally produced a big field In the
commercial world for scientific men
and the government had many such
who were getting meager salaries. so
tho offer Of more money naturally
weaned them from the service
Every one in the country realizes
that now Is the time to make money
and the scientists were not immune
from this thought. So the dollar
madness was the reason for many
leaving the government service"
The Washington times., 1920-08-31

In the Bureau of Standards, the
turnover is estimated at 100 per cent
a year. 1t is said. This does not mean
that every employe leaves in the
course of a year, he said. but among
the minor employees the turnover is
much greater.
The Bureau Of Standards Is now ad-
vertising in the daily newspapers for
scientific assistants. This Is caused,
it was said. by officials at the bureau
today by the fact that a number of
young men were going back to col
lege, having taken the places in June,
to help fll the gaps in the employ
ment force there.
Many OF the higher officials. 1t Is
said, have left during the year to ac-
cept positions paying more than 100
per cent above what they were get

on account of the laying of Of SO
many men in the textile Industries
the men are not so anxious to leave,
with the prospects Of being thrown
out OF employment in a short time.
Several scientific men employed in
the textile industries, 1t Is said, have
made application for places in the
Bureau of Standards, and in one case
they are getting a prominent rubber
