The discovery of the gasoline engine, which 

 was made possible by the research and study and 

 experimentation that went on for years, enabled 

 us to provide ourselves with vehicles of transpor- 

 tation capable of doing what no other vehicle 

 could do, in less time and with less man power 

 required for its operation. This did not mean 

 that there was less work for anybody. In fact, 

 the use of this new means of transportation grew 

 so rapidly that hundreds of thousands of men 

 were segregated to provide this service for all 

 the people. This service because it increased the 

 speed of getting about and the flexibility and speed 

 of distribution of people and production enabled 

 us to use our time to better advantage. All 

 through this development, organized scientific 

 knowledge was playing its part in the working out 

 of these new products and, consequently, in in- 

 creasing the comfort and the convenience of 

 living. 



Repeating the Increase. Just as soon as sug- 

 gestion, research, and study have determined an 

 improvement which will permit us to increase our 

 efficiency, then it is necessary for us to devise 

 equipment and systems by which we can repeat 

 the increase and absorb it into our regular opera- 

 tions. This part of the development, which takes 

 place in industry, concerns the planning and ar- 

 ranging of the new operations, or the changes in 

 the old operations, which will allow the improve- 

 ment to be absorbed in the regular work, so that 

 the increased efficiency can be maintained, and
