A CORRECTION

In reporting the meeting of the
Wranglers' club in last weeks issue,
this newspaper made a mistake in
stating that A. E. McKane talked to
the club regarding his experiences in
the Hawaiian islands. We were mis-
informed in that respect. Mr.. Earl
Mckinley was the one who gave very
interesting talk on Hawaiian life and

Akron. O.. Nov. 9.-It was in Akron
that Charles E.. Bedaux, the indus
trial engineer who was to guide the
Duke and Duchess of Windsor thro-
ugh America, made his success. AND
it was in Akron that resentment a.
gainst the dapper French-born guide
of the duke smoldered deepest.
Although Akron regrets that the
duke and the duchess cancelled their
American trip, there is sigh of re-
lief. For if Bedaux had accompanied
them through the rubber plants here
there might have been Kisses for Be
daux. Unions have been bitterly out
spoken against the Bedaux system
which is a means of speeding up pro-
duction without the use of greater
manpOWer.
came to u. S. in 1908.
Bedaux, who rose to great wealth
through the adoption of his system by
American industralists, came to the
United States in 1908 from France.
The Akron Beacon Journal tells of
his career from then on in these
words:
Wnll6 ldDOEluS llIO OAASAOA
New York City as sand hog" dig
ging skyscraper and subway founda-
lions, Bedaux conceived the idea OF
selling to industrialists his formula
based on the deficiency doctrines ex-
pounded by the late Frederick W.
Taylor just before the turn of the
century.
Finds Test of Idea.
He found swinging a shovel and
hammer, Tightening bolts and stamp
ing dies ideal laboratories for expert
menting with his nebulous plan that
was to make him a multi-millionaire
before he reached the age of so.
His first opportunity for giving his
formula practical tests came after he
obtained a new job with the Malllnck~
rodt Chemical Works. He persuaded
his bosses to give him a chance to try
out the plan in single department.
It worked.

Volume as to Bring Cancellation

He ironed out q few wrinkles ana
sold the plan to a manufacturer of
spectacle frames who was being fore
ed to the wall by competition from
competition able to undersell him. Be
daux saved the business with his
scheme for cutting costs and increas-
ing output.
Sells Treatise at $25.
One of the industrial giants began
to take notice of him. General Elec-
trio Company offered to buy his sys-
tenn. but the shrewd little Frenchman
saw a veritable gold mine in his brain
child. He wrote a treatise on the plan
and sold it widely to industralists at
$25 copy. TIE seed which he planted
in Americas farSile industrial soil was
beginning to beer fruit.
He came on west. Plants through
him large fees to put his plan into
effect. He moved into Ohio and at
Cleveland in 1917 brought his formula
to this great industrial area
B. F. Goodrich Co., adapted his plan
to the rubber industry and BedauX
came to Akron. He has preserved a
friendship with a NUMBER of indus
triaiistS in this area which undoubt-
adly lcs' - f~~--'l'atirC plans to bring
his royal 4il.s through this region
to inspect the results of his work.
Both company officials and union
leaders here decline to discuss the sys-
tenn, union officials explaining that
here is difference of opinion among
workers feel that the system enables
more skilled workers to earn more, al
though a majority of them apparently
oppose the formula on the grounds
that it tends to force speeding up
of workers.
Rich now beyond his dreams, he re-
turned to his native land to purchase
an imposing old chateau in Touraine
for some S750,OO0. There he took his
American-born second wife, the for
mer Fern Lombard of Grand Rapids,
Mich.
Bedaux spread his operations . to
many other nations and his wealth
brought him new friends. Along the
figure. Among his new friends. were
Mr.. and Mrs. Herman Rogers and
Mrs. Rogers was a friend of the cap
tivating Wally Simpson.
His friendship with the then Prince
of Wales grew. When Edward Of
Windsor gave up his throne for love
of the former Baltimore beauty, il
was at the Badaux chateau they were
wed.
Bedaux, the man, was virtually an
