DANGER IN MACHINE AGE
Given another 20 years of the
machine age, and the United States |
would be a helpless victim of any j
foe which might attack it.
The number of journeymen tech- j
nicians are decreasing every year, j
In the place of a man whose train
ing fits him to construct in its en
tirely any important machine or i
utilitarian product, like a locomo-1
tive. we have men trained only to
perfect a given part.
Following the urge of the mach- j
ine-age philosophy and economics, j
it would be necessary to assemble
an army of wrorkmen, each a spe
cialist in his especial line, to turn
out any one of a number of the
important implements.
Given farms operated upon the
mass-production principle and thej
loss of the directing head, coupled'
with the passing of the general
knowledge of farming, and the na
tion would perish for want of food.
Specialism has its limitations.
They are where it involves fun
damentals associated from the
earliest ages with man’s progress
and subsistence. This is evidenced
every day when someone, reared
and brought up in a highly spe
cialized community, finds himself
almost helpless without the aid of
a machine and incapable of win
ning an existence when thrown
upon his own
Therefore, great blessings will
come out of the present depression.
True it is a terrible price to pay,
and one in which the innocent suf
fer with the thoughtless.
Man may play with his old world
about so far, when the forces which
accounn for his being step in and
tell him to slow up.
An alarmist points to the fact that the birth rate in
the U. S. dropped from 24.3 in ’21 to 18.9 in ’30. But look
at the quality! We have college graduate racketeers,
whereas in ’24 they were common pug-ugglies.
A Texan caught a June fish seven feet long and
weighing 450 pounds. Just think of what this minnow
would have accomplished if he’d been allowed to run un
til December!
“Skill with eggs helps golfer thru school,” says a
headline. The same skill has helped ham actors to break
hurdle and cross-country records.
An army tank has been invented which jumps 30
feet. It is not reported what it does to the corns of the
rest of the multitude.
If this ocean hopping continues some bill collectors
are going to have to go some to keep up.

POUND PLENTY QUARTZ
OUT NO PAYSTREAKS
Fred Broadwell, who has been
spending a week in Moose Pass
prospecting, returned to Seward on
last night’s passenger train. While
in the Pass Mr. Broadwell travers
ed Granite and Lynx creeks' to
their head in the mountains, vis
ited several other creeks and made
a general survey of the uplands.
He reports that while finding an
abundance of quartz, he did not
unearth a pay streak. Description
of some of the quartz stringers and
outcrops indicate they belong to
the discontinuous series in the
slates and graywackes. Sufficient
time was not available to give the
country a thorough going over, in
the hope of picking up the zone
from which the stock-work-like
quartz radiation emanated.
