Famous Pleader for Business Efficiency
lauil I. Ftrandels. recently took rait
In a conference regarding the po'slhlll
tios of Introducing scientific ninusninent
Into Industrial operations, ami gave the
following notable address on tbnt occa
sion entitled, "The New Conception of
Industrial F.fflclency."
"As I look at the watch I feel a
preater regret at the brevity of lif than
ever before; becau-e there him been
all by some of the speakers who pre
ceded tne so much thut was not true
and to much thiit shows a failure to
understand what scientific management
1 I shotild like to enter upon such a
statement of thut science as would make
It possible for every one of you to know
what It means, niul what it offers to this
country; what the introduction of knowl
edge aa opposed to Ignorance offers to
the great world of human industry. It
means the opportunity to secure In a
much-neglected field advances In produc
tion which would enable our p-oplo to
satisfy those just demands of labor, the
satisfaction of wbjch is essential to the
development of American civilization.
"I am amazed to find a representative of
organized labor us aide and as enlight
ened as Mr. Dunciiu, taking. In Ignorance
of the principles of scientific inunage
luent, the position which he has. It is
a position which must necessarily rest,
if It Is to be taken literally, upon the
proposition which belles cvetj thliiK upon
which American prosperity rests, and
which Is necessary, and has been nec
essary, for that prosperity which we en
Joy. It is as If ho hud said we cannot
make progress.
Why We Prosper.
"Isn't It a fact that the prosperity we
liave In America today comes not so
much from Illimitable or so-called illim
itable resources of America, ns because
we Jtv America have advanced or had rVe of
until recently advanced beyond all other guiwn;

people, in cllminatins the wustc of f.uman
labor? This Is what we stand for. The
prosperity of the south besan with the
cotton Kin. Th prosperity of the west
lay not so much In her fqrtllo fields as
In her agricultural machinery, and In
her transportation system, which enabled
Us to eliminate waste, to create a field
for profit out of which we, and all of
us, were able to git a living, better than
was obtained In foreign countries. In our
New England, und in parts of the Kast
where manufacturing prevails; It has
been our necessities, and not our re
sources, thut have been the sources of
prosperity. It has been the necessities
tho poor soli, which drove us to man
ufacturing, and high wages, fortunately,
which made us tho mother of invention.
Vnfortunately that movement to Invent,
to Cave labor, was arrested. Why? He
cause of the Illimitable resources of
foreign labor. It was cosier to tap the
foreign labor supply than to think, and
to work persistently upon the lines of
saving labor.
NothliiK to Ilonxt Of.
"It Is something to bo proud of
that bricks were laid, and In most
countries are being laid, precisely as
they were laid in tho days of riiaraoh?
No! Mr. Gllbreth, after lie had studied
Mr. Taylor, came to think whether the
principle which Taylor had applied to
the machine shop and other things could
riot be applied to bricklaying. What did
he do? lie did just what Taylor had
donej He put the mind of tho scientist
on to the operation. The greki fiuic-
mcntal vork of the scientist Is to observa
observe and take nothing for grunted.
So Mr. Gllbreth, who Is a bricklayer by
trade, who fitted himself to that us he
did to other branches of tho building
trade, began to dissect this operation of
laying brick, lie began at the beginning,
und said, 'What is the first thing to do?
Well, tho first thing was U reach down
to the floor of the scaffolding and pick
up a brick; and It occurred to him, for
the first time, although he had been in
the building trade for nearly twenty-five
years, that it was a fool thing for a
niun to bend down to the floor to pick up
a brick. It took a good dcul of effort.
It took a good deal of time. He said to
himself, 'The thing for me to do Is not to
go down and pick up the brick, but to
liavo that brick up where I am, and to
have It where I can just reach out my
hand and get It. It will save me a good
deal of labor, and It will save me a good
deul oftline.' So he Invented a shelf it
was a very sllgh Invention he arranged
that It could bo screwed up from time to
time by a boy who passed around, so that
the brick would ulways be up at the
hand of the man who has to lay It, He
would simply have to stretch his hand
out," Instead of going through the athletic
performance of picking it up off the
ground. Then ho said, 'What Is the next
thing I do? I take that brick in my
hand, and I take my trowel and test it
two or' three'' times. If It Is not a good
brick I take it and throw It down on the
llohr. I am up on the fifth or slNth
story. Thoso bricks which have been
painfully and expensively brought up to
where T am are painfully curried down
again. Wouldn't It be better to have only
those bricks come up that are selected
instead of being pitched on the hod, or
raised by the derrick, and sent up without
being tested?'
To lie Economic.
"He concluded that would be economic.
Then he said, 'What Is the next thing 1
do? I look that brick all over to get the
face of that brick and to get It Just rlgtit.
Wouldn't It be better when thut man
down below Is selecting the good brick,
before It comes up to me, that ho should
put those bricks in a packet light Bid?
up. so that when they conio up they will
be delivered right side up, right on this
shelf, right ut hand. All I would have
to do, I, the bricklayer, would be (a take
" each brick, knonin;,' that all Lricl.s wore
sound, and knowing all were right side
up, and to lay it.' Tiien viien the time
came when he was ready t.j lay i;, li
put it down on tho wnll; then he tapped
It with tlie trowel aaln (that ii: d always
been done since tl, days of I'hai "ioi. . Ii
occurred to him that pcrlups thut an
not necessary. If the mortar . i j-i.it
of the right texture, the v. i.-nt. the
known weight of the brick, would be suf
ficient to press the mortar down to where
it belonged. Ill that way. with t.oiiie o;'.nr
changes, he faund that the eighteen
motions which were ordinal ity Involved
In laying a brick could be reduced tj six.
"Now I want to ask ou g. ntlcrin n
whether that method of laying brick is
not more In accord with the Uts of
America, and the twentieth century, than
the methods of I'hariioii?
Hour la Oilier I nd imlrlen.
"What Mr. (Jllbnth did with brick has
b.-eii done In man uther industries. It
must be done in thourands and ten of
thousands, and hundreds o:' thousands of
operations, before we r ui h what '.' lie
fere we reach a right way of doing things.
And to learn the light way of d ling we
must do Just what the scieiui-ts have
ahvas done, in all other fields. To oh-

Ists, with the eye of a skeptic, or the I that money, and I wanted It, and I went
there; but It was an awful Job for me to
(In all t'mt shoveling. I began to think
whether or not It was necessary. 1 be
gatvjo think, too, that that engineer was
putting u good' di-al of work on me that
he oughtn't to. I though 1 found out a
few things a built firing an engine, and I
n.ado up my mind that when I became an
engineer I should not work my fireman
as I had been worked." Later that man
became an engineer and It was discovered
luce years alter he hail been in that posi
tion thut on his engine he saved fort
tins of fuel a month as against
thoso around him. Ho says that In
man and as an engineer, and
ull the years that he was a flre
until this discovery was made ut that
lato day, he had never heard one man
suggest to him that coal was something
to be saved, and but for that experience
and thatBtudy which he Individually
made, with u view to saving himself
labor, he never would have known how
to savo coal.

teiy uperutlun, and vcilIUiitf thut ti-iinaii, 1
'iiat Taylor did. That was the method
which Taylor pursued. One of the first
things lie did everyone doubtless at this
time Is familiar with. He found out how
to do the simple operation of sending pig
Iron from the yard into a railroad car.
He Increased the performance of the in
dividual man from twelve and a half
tons up to about forty-seven tons. lld
he do it by speeding up? Not at all! He
did it by precisely the same methods as
aro pursued in the careful training of a
man to do uny work. He found out how
to do It. He found out the laws that
govern It. Ho gave careful thought to the
individual. He said that this man who
picks up the pig iron and carries it Into
that car, if he doesn't know how to do
It best, will be Just like the manoTI the
college crew who wears himself out when
he gets Into the boat. There is some
.'peed which is the best Bpeed for that
mtn to go. So fast, and no faster. There
l. a certain period thut man ought to
rest in order that he can work the full
eight hours cr nine hours In tho day.
There is a certain angle which is the best
angle for that man to walk up the in
clined plane from the yard Into the car.
Hy studying those thing he finds out
there are laws, there is a science, In much
that has heretofore been regarded as
unskilled and unscientific. The great aim
of scientific management is to establish
that there Is to bo nothing unskilled-
nothing iat is not to be worked out, as
scientists are working out for us day
after day the problems In other depart
I'lltf of t'JHiUr. act!c;;y. -
All Are Together.
"If Mr. Duncan and his friends would
ctmo to understand what scientific man
agement means, they would see how im
lcrtant it Is to the working man, and to
us, because we and they are all together.
Mr. Pagan talked as if the railroads were
opposed to this Idea of efficiency. Mr.
Willard's letter shows you that is not the
feet. What say you to this as proposi
tion? '. thin"" chen. and in .
n' wcnen tnl c lldren noro valuable.
Let lliu mi i.i ... ieia..-e tor llu
many. In this principle of efficiency is
bound up the welfare of our race." That,
gentlemen, is a quotation. Those words
were spoken, within a fortnight in this
city by Frank Trumbull, chairman of the
board of directors of the Chesapeake &
Ohio railroad, three weeks after the de
cision of the Interstate Commerce com
mission denying the advances In freight
rates which the railroads of the country
hud sought. Isn't that a platform, on
which every man and woman here can
aland? Isn't that the only platform upon
which we should stand? Isn't wasto sin
ful, however it may come?
HI imt Klimiunte Waste.
"Wo cannot satisfy the demands of
American democracy until e have elim
inated a large part of the waste which
new exists. The talk this evening has
been aa If that waste lay wholly in what
is here spoken of us efficiency or Inef
ficiency of labor. That tells a very small
part of tho story. Thcrj Is a very large
purt of this possible saving that organ
ised labor or tny tcn.H of organized la
bor cannot possibly lie opposed to. Take
this Illustration from the railroad world.
Last year, k-3 than a year ago, the sup
erintendent of jnotlve power of the Frle
railroad, Mr. Hayes, pointed out at a
meeting of his associates what might be
done in the savint; of fuel. He showed
the tests which he hud made upon his
own railroad In the operation of a par
ticular engine, and on a particular divi
sion, by the same fireman and engineer
in two -successive hours. In tho first
hour that fireman and engineer were op
erating that engine without any speclut
caro as to tho consumption of fuel. In
tho second hour a trained man got upon
that engine with them and saw to it that
they operated the engine, and stoked the
fire as it should b" stoked. The result
as, as Mr. ik.ycs pointed out, that hl
ihough tho work actually done In the
secot-1 hour v.u.t great-r than in the
Lirtf hour, the coii.-a:i;,M,un of co:.l was
only cne-l'iii'd of what H was in the first
hour. All thut eu U'ji uinaiy saving re
sulted lrom know led,'; and car '.

"Does Mr. Duncan or djes any man be
ilive thnt it i;i bi tter to go on In the old
v.iiy allowing the nan to waste that fuel

"Now I ask you whether that engineer
and fireman is not a truer American,
and does not hold up a higher Ideal for
his fellow workmen than the man H ho
comes and tells you, "Wo know It all.
Wo will not listen to advance. What
we do not know Is not worth knowing."
I ask you, gentlemen In business and In
manufacturing, whether tho thing you
do not know Is not Just the thing that
Is worth knowing?
"1 sympathize aboslutely with tho ap
prehension of Mr. Duncan and his as
sociates. I believe that we have in this
country a situation which presents much
that we can be proud of, much that we
must bo ashamed of. The richest
country of the world, the country of
greatest opportunity, has In It horrible
conditions, In very many places, and In
very many trades excessive hours, In
sufficient wages, conditions dangerous
to lifo and health, und conditions which
would be infinitely worse It It wera not
for labor's steady and progressiva fight
through the labor unions. Hut while the
unions have done and are doing a great
work, they stand not only In their own
light, but In our light, und lu the light
of the democracy und the udvance of the
world, If they undertake to block the
Introduction of science In business.
".Mr. Duncan closes with tho sugges
tion 'What more, what better could
bo done than to undertake to make work
regular. Instead of sporadic." I agree
with him.
Led to All Heat.
"In one business, one business with
which I became very familiar, where
the principles of scientific munugement
were Introduced, that wan the great aim
to which they directed themselves, and
It led to all the rest. It produced, from
an irregululity comparable to that which
Mr. Duncan spoke of of SOU working
days in the year a regularity where the
actual working duys ran tip to tlie rwo
working days which Mr. Duncan desired.
That was by virtue of Manning; by
virtue of introducing Into every depart
ment of that business careful thought,
the best effort that could be had, to do
vise what everybody must see Is desir
able that there should be no waste. What
waste is comparable to the waxtc that
brings the pain and demoralization (,f
men dismissed and thrown Into the street
to "kill time" as best they may until
again in the chaotic condition of that
uusmess mere is a demand Tor a great
number und they run overtime!
"Hut this altitude which Mr. Duncan
shows and In which organized labor ap
proaches this plan, suylng 'You slia'n't
do thut; you shall proceed as you have
proceeded," is tho opposite to what we
strive for. We should pick out every
defect, whether It be Irregularity or
waste, or whether It be overtime, or any
ono of a thousand ether delects, and
let the mini of man dwell on it, not in
the taiisii of deapuir like .Mr. 1-ukuh. but
