Now ttat we are all acquainted, and by thir time you should all know "MIC'" Iet'r take a look around and see yftat is taking place in this old world of ours.
Things sure have changed since 1914, and a great deal is happening today in America that is not "in the news!" A feverirh undercrnrent of experimentation in science and business ir going on. Take the motor car and steel indurtry, boiling over with rumors' new steels, better cars; a n€,\w kind of carpet is reported that may change that entire indus$; a nelw era of mergers and consolidationr is herel motion picturer talk; the Secretary of Cornmeice ir reen and heard thnr television: chernical rerearch is developing startling poraibilitier: a rpeed of over 20O m.p.h. har been attained by auto; the Atlantic and Pacific spanned by aeroplane; time and distance are being annihilated; com.munities are under an intensc competition, not only with each other but with substitute articles; and all this meanr adjurbneng adjustment to new idear, new standards, and new ethics.
Is it any wonder lllr. Miltmanr your own industry ir changing? Wbat are you doing to help your industry adjust itseH? It's up to yorq individually and collectively, to co-operate more than ever before to meet these changing conditions. Do yolr saleernen still uce 1914 ethics, have you overhauled and speeded up your production, accounting, adrninistration and all other branchet of your businers; are you ceoperating with your fellow millmen who are using their time and energy to solve your problem?
This is no time to be "A. W. O. L." for if you are you may be "S. O. L." Your brains and energy are surely needed to help solve your inindustries battle front
MlC.
P. S.-How about rpending a little money for a really scientific engineering report of your conditions as they exist to-day and may exirt tomorrow?
