engineering, are from the Uni
versity of California, Brown,
Michigan, Rutgers and Russell
Sage college. She shared the
study and practice Of her hus-
band, DR.. Frank B. Gilbreth, an
eminent engineer, and when he
died, in 1924, picked up his work
as well as her own, chiefly in
the field of industrial motion
study, and in combating drudg-
cry, inefficiency and waste in
factories. She believes that tools
are liberating instruments if
used intelligently and the frank
enstein of modern machinery
can be neatly and nicely domes-
ticated. Women, she thinks, can
be great help in this-as well
as in winning the war.
She is brisk and personable lady,
So years old, born and reared in
Oakland, Calf. AS a consultant in
factory processes and organization,
she stresses the fact that her meth
DDS involve no "speed-up" plans.
w E ONCE knew an illustrious
w and talkative citizen, an au-
thority on nearly everything of pub
lie interest, who came to grief when

really had been any such person as
he was supposed to be- He was a
synthesis of this hired alter ego and
when the ghost died the great public
man became quite inarticulate and
helpless. Before long he was utterly
forgotten.
Henry j. Kaiser, the cargo plane
and ship wizard, has a ghost but
need have no such worries. He can
say his say effectively and it is
merely in the interest of his famous
super-efficiency that he has Philip
H. Parrish, editorial writer of the
Portland Oregonian, writing his
speeches and statements for him. It
might mean loss of half dozen
ships if Mr. Kaiser took time out to
write speeches. Mr.. Kaiser can lay
the keel of sentence or a speech
as simply and soundly as the next
man. Mr. Parrish, one of the best
,wordsmiths in the business, assem-
bles the various parts and brings
through the superstructure, all ship
shape and in jigtime, and it's all au-
thentic Kaiser.
AS to transportation, Mr.. Par
IRISH started away back of
scratch, several years ago, with
book, "BefOre the Covered
Wagon" He is fast worker
and moved on handily into the
cargo plane era, with Mr.. Kaiser
and, in charge of the editorial
page of the Portland Oregonian,
made his typewriter crack
steam-riveter blows in the build
up of the master shipbuilder.
Everybody out that way knows
him as Phil Parrish, turning in
professional talent of. high or
der to help win the war. Having
started newspaper work IN
Olympia, Ore, on the Morning
Olympian he catches in nicely
the quite uniformly Olympian
stride of MIR. Kaiser.
Mr. Parrish is as years old,
native of Constantine, Mich, educat-
ed at the Oregon State college and
the University of Wisconsin. In
Portland, he worked first as re-
porter on the Journal and then
worked on through virtually every
editorial post on the Oregonian. He
takes the long view of Oregon and
the nation, as disclosed in another
successful book of his, Historic
Oregon" He is married and has
one daughter

- Grated and distinguished British
architect, takes over the job of put
ting London together again, under
the mandate of the Royal academy,
of which he was elected president
in 1898. Not only will he restore the
bombed areas, but he will tear up
the old haEg-overs of hit-or-miss
development and bring through a
modern city, along that old line of
Roman, Saxon, Norman, modern
growth. He designed the British
