At a recent meeting eff the Ameri-
can Engineering Societies they eff
fected a federation and adopted a res
olution which has real news value.
1t indicates the trend of the times to-
ward a new conception of public SER
vice and inspires the faith that the
future belongs to the engineer.
The resolution is as follows: En-
cheering is the science of controll-
ing the forces and utilizing the ma
terialS of nature for the benefit of
man, and the art of organizing and
of directing human activities in con
nection Herewith. AS service to 9TH
ers is the expression of the highest
motive to which men respond, and as
duty to the public welfare demands
the best efforts men can put forth,
now therefore, the engineering and al
Stataes of America, through the form
Stats Of America, through the form
alton of the Federated American En-
~gineering Societies, realize a long
cherished ideal-a comprehensive or
ganization dedicated to the service of
the community, state and nation.
The above resolution is good news,
for as indicated, other engineers only
develop material resources and use
the human factor as a means to this
end.
The mechanical engineer is a very
essential factor in the progress Of
civilization, but his art should and
must be organically related to the
work of the social engineer, but the
approach to the task is quite differ

ordinated, for only to direct the hu-
man factor from the standpoint of
public service, and leave the wonder

With the exception of Germany,
ruined by her own acts, and Japan,
shattered by the forces Of nature, all
the world was better off at the close
of 1923 than at its beginning. This
is especially true of the United States,
italy, Finland, Czechoslovaka, Tur-
key, and probably Russia, though the
information coming from the land Of
the soviets has been so colored that
1t was difficult to determine true con-
dltons there.
Economic recovery OF the world was
retarded, as 1t was during the previ-
GUS twelve months, by failure to
settle the matter of the German repa-
rations and by the steady decline Of
Germany toward the point Of absolute
collapse. The occupation of the Ruhr
by France and the resulting disputes
with Great Britain brought on re-
peated crises each of which seemed
to threaten the final disruption of the
entente cordiale.
Several proposals for commissions
to determine Germany's capacity to
pay were made, but each of them re-
Quired the participation of the United
States and each time the American
government found unacceptable the
restrictions insisted upon by Premier
Poincare of France. AS the year
drew toward its close, however, the
reparations commission was preparing
to appoint two committees of experts
to help work out the problem, and
President Coolidge approved of the ap.
pointment of Americans on these com.
mitteeS.
Turkey gained power and prestige
through the Lausanne peace confer
ence and the resulting treaties with
the allies and with the United States.
Late In the year she added herself to
the list of republics with Mustapha
Kemal Pasha as her first president.
Under the leadership of General
Primo Rivera and other army officers
and aristocrats, there was a house
turning out of the crowd of politicians
that had for years been battening Oh
the spolls of UIsgQyefn--ent. The so,
called democratic government was
overthrown and a dictatoriai council
substituted.
President HardIng's death In San
Francisco threw all the United States
and indeed all the civilized world
into heartfelt mourning. Vice Presi.
dent Calvin Coolidge. succeeding to
the chief maglstracy, carried on in

Mr. Harding had been considered the

DOMESTIC AFFAIRS

Overshadowing all other events In
the United States was the death Of
President Warren G. Harding. He
had long planned a trip through the
Middle and Far West and to Alaska
in order to talk with the people and
get their reactions. Though tired out
and far from well, he started on June
90 accompanied by Mrs. Harding and
several members OF his cabinet. After
delivering several important addresses
notably one advocating American mem.
bershlp In the World court, he sailed
to Alaska. Returning thence to San
Francisco, he fell III there on July %.
-Four days later, on August ., he
passed away. The taking Of his body
back to Washington, the services
there, the trip to Marion, Ohio, and
the interment there OF the little towns
distinguished citizen on August 10
gave the people of the country ample
opportunity to show in what high
esteem and affection they held Mr..
Harding. Literally the entire nation
mourned sincerely. and all the other
nations gave expression to their grief.
Vice President Calvin Coolidge took
the oath of Office as President at his
fathers home in Plymouth, Vt. and
assumed his new duties at once, re-
talning the entire Harding cabinet and
announcing that he would carry out
the Harding policies where possible.

the opening by declaring Germany in

many formally protesting and Great
Britain not approving, the French on
January II began the occupation OF
the Ruhr, seizing Its most important
cities one after another. President
Harding expressed his dlsapproyal by
recalling the American troops from
Germany. Chancellor Cuno, with the
support Of the reichstag, declared a
moral war" OF passive resistance and
ordered all state employees not to obey
the French. The mine owners and
later the Industrial magnates fell ln
with this program and for months the
French were baked In their efforts
TO get any considerable revenue from
the region. They seized customs, bank
funds and railways and arrested many
Industrial leaders and officials, but the
