GENERALIZATION
FOR TWO DECADES
DON DAVID, FORMER MOSCOW
MAN, NOW WITH HARVARD
ADDRESSES STUDENTS.

"The next 20 years in business will
be an era of broad generalization
just as the last 20 has been one of
specialization" Donald X. David,
graduate of the University of Idaho
and now assistant dean of the Har-
ward university graduate school of
business administration, told univer-
today. He spoke on Business Edu-
cation"
Former Moscow Boy
Mr.. David, who is a son of F. A.
David of Moscow, was graduated
from the university in 1916 with a
degree from the college of letters and
science, majoring in economics Af-
ter few days at home he will con-
tinue on his trip which takes him
to all the principal colleges and uni
versitieS of the west where he will
speak on various phases of business
training.
1.-The task of the business school
of today is to train men to be ex-
ecutives, not men of concentration or
specialization upon one thing but men
with broad, deep understanding of the
business situation" he said. ''They
must be trained to meet problems and
to solve them. Details will be learn
ed after the student has left school
Business Training Necessary
Some 10000 students are now in
American institutions of higher edu-
caion studying business in it's various
aspects. OF the 629 colleges and uni
versities in the country, 400 offer
business training and the results
shown at Harvard prove without
doubt that college training is valuable
and necessary. After our graduates
have been out of school three years,
96 percent of them hold executive
positions.
"The ultimate aim of such training
is to teach men the content of sub
jects in general way and even more
than that to teach them to think out
and analyze problems that will con-
front them when they sit at an ex-
ecutive desk"
Wednesday morning at 10 o'clock
Mr.. David will speak at the general
student assembly in the auditorium.

STRENGTH OF ROPE
Tests Made at Bureau of Standard by Experts Just What Weight strands are Capable of Holding.

Washington, Nov. S.--lIow strong is a rope? Tests made at the Bureau of Standards here have resulted in answering the question with form ula.
 for three-strand regular mailia rope from one-half to four and one- half inches in diameter the follow ing computation, experts at the Bu- reau state, will give the breaking load of the rope:
 The average breaking load in pounds equals 5000 multiplied by the diameter of the rope in inches, null tipied by the diameter of the rope in- creased by one.
 This, the experts add, will give the average maximum weight that the rope will hold but the working load or the load that a contractor or safe hauler may apply with proper safety and precaution would be consider ably less than the load given by the formula.
