the vast changes that were taking place In
american life and which were making tne
machine the new god and master OF men.
What the author observed and felt In MS
round of investigations he put graphically ana
fee1inglv into a small volume called Perhaps
women" At his temporary quarters In New
york he elaborated upon his impressions and
recalled the days when men worked for them
selves and not for machines.
rk IAN must have a familiar relationship
M with tools and with material to OBJ
tain satisfaction from life and keep healthy
and strong. A woman gets this when she
has a child to absorb her. OF course, a man
can turn to a woman, but that, for him, is
onlv a substitute He obtains ultimate salts
faction only from work" said Mr.. Anderson
an the old days man who was a carriage
maker could piece together the different parts
of the carriage and take manly pride in the
work he had completed. But the worker to-
day does only one minute part of the job. Day
in and day out he goes through the same mo-
tions. He has no relationship at all to the fin
ished product. What does the motor car mean
tn him when he cannot look upon it as his
own achievement? AS matter OF fact, the
lob can be done virtually without him. All he
needs to do is to touch the levers.

of his abilities He wonders whether he will

Evening star., 1932-01-10

-HIS pithy picture of our machine
civilization was drawn by Sherwood
Anderson, one of the foremost OF
American noveliSts. He had recently
spent several months investigating
and studying life in the mills ana
factories and office buildings both in the towns
and cities. He stood side by side with the
workers at their machines and visited Inem
at their homes
Sherwood Anderson has great understand
ing of industrial life because he hlmseH was
part of it before he became writer. he spent
his boyhood in factory town In ONO, "nere'
as soon as he was old enough, he worked az
various types of jobs. When he went oroke'
he enlisted as a soldier in the Spanish Amer
ican War. After that he entered business and
became in time, an advertising writer ana d
manufacturer Although he was very success
full he was not satisfied with his work. He
wanted to write and he spent his leisure hours
turning out one manuscript after another ana
DESTROYING each one Finally his short stories,
poems and essays began TO appear In print ana
to command attention. There followed in sue
cession such books at Hello Towns" Horses
and Men" Many Marriages." "Winesburg,
Ohio" and Dark Laughter" Virtually all the
tales that he has told have been one with the
life he has lived.
A few years ago Mr. Anderson grew tired
of the noisy, crushing life of the city and he
went to live in the small town of Marion Va,
where he became the publisher of two small
seclusion when he decided to learn more of

and the big buSi-

may bluster and
brag and make a
show of being i'm

have no more op-
portunity to show
individuality and
freedom than the
men in t h e ir

feel defeated by
life.

become a great war. Every one has to carry
on regardless of sentiment Ihe noiVlouai haS
to be sacrificed; he no longer counts
."To win success he has to be cold and I'M
nersonaI Never mind what happens to the
newt nerson. Just see that you go the way
the machine demands. And so the machme
continues to grow more powerful, daily gaming
greater control Of life.
."rhis emntv routine that men go through in
their work is making them spiritually impotent
And it is inevitable that physical impotence
should follow
fIAr, further aggravates the situation, Mr..
w Anderson brought out, is that man need
M LONGER exert himself mentally to attain
mower He can get it vicariously in an easier
way.
"To achieve real power of the mind and OF
the spirit." he said SIS a long difficult process.
WIZ sbonId a man exert himself when he can
oct the same feeling by making money? BY
driving an automobile? And so he goes on
cheating nature by surrendering to this false
Kind of power. Unknowingly he is on the way
to impotence. u
noerlv their imagnations held full sway. They
created poetry and art and music. But notn-
ing is being produced now. Outside OF the
inventors and engineers, we have no great men.
And we cannot have them so long as money
and machines master our lives

true place is primarily in the imaginative

Thus it is that something is going dead In

son sensed this something which was killed IN

Because men are being subdued and
crushed by the machine it is easier for women
to gain the upper hand. They have kind
of contempt for them because they are noe
doing any important work in the world. They
dominate them and rule over them. In the
cartoons. in fiction and on the stage we can
see how much men are ridiculed and humill-
ated by women. This situation Is reflected IN
every phase of literature.
eff men were holding their own today, tney
would be real mates and lovers. Mating, when
1t Is real. lasts But life is taking so much
from the men that they have become less de-
sirable lovers. And so the feeling OF love De-
tween men and women is only heetmg one.
They cannot stand the long, hard test OF
marriage They obtain divorce and rest
lessly seek for other mates who Will satisfy
them
~ /OMEN no longer find any glamour OK
Wy romance in their men. There is no
lure In men who have been devitalizeo snd
humiliated by the machine.
"As yet women have not been as mucn
affected by the machine as men have. Just
as you can sense something going dead IN
the men, so you can sense something giorl-
ously alive in the women. It must be because
every woman has a life within herself tnas
nothing outside her can really touch.
Then, too, the machine age is giving
women more than they ever had. They get
most of the goods. Men earn more money
and they get that, too. Every one caters TO
them-the press the magazines, the stores the
automobile industry the theater and the ad-
vertisers While men have been preoccupfed
with the machine and making money, woman
has marshaled her forces and advanced her
position She is headed for unbelievable
power Most men have already surrendered
to her"
Mr. Anderson was asked how men could get
away from the dominance OF the machine
and regain the place they once had. How
could they escape from future that is bound
to be even more humiliating to them?
zone thing we must realize" he replied,
ais that we cannot do without the machine.
Tt has become an inevitable and necessary
part Of life. Nor do we want to give up the
many advantages it has given to us. The
release from drudgery and the greater leisure
that people have because Of it have been
boon. Space has been annihilated and people
can travel and communicate from one part or
the world to another in short period of time.
This has brought nations closer and makes
1t easier to invite international cooperation.
"The machine has also helped to raise living
standards, so that even the humblest people
enjoy cleaner and more comfortable Life.
We no longer find the squalor and the filth
that once marked the poor sections OF the
city There is, you see, every reason why we
should keep the advantages have gained
cat the same time, though, we must do
something which will help us control the ma
chine. At present we are confused and puz-
zled We are even frightened so that We
cannot think clearly. I believe in time man
will come through. He has great deal OF
