To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In democratic countries, and even in autocratic in the end, the public is the final arbiter on engineering as well as other questions. Whether the advice of engineers is accepted or not, and whether their services are used or dispensed with, depend ultimately on whether the public holds correct views on engi- neering questions. We are constantly railing at its mistakes. Why not turn in to help educate it aright ? Then, again, in many phases of engineering work the ulti- mate success must depend... upon the engineering intelligence of the individual citizen. This is true of heating, lighting, sanitary and mechanical conveniences in the home, of machin- ery for the farm, of vehicles for the roads, of the use and misuse of roads, pavements, sewer and water works systems and public utilities generally. The same Mayor of Chicago who just gave such excellent service in stopping the street car strike, was reported in Engineering News of almost the same date to have said ''We are glad to have lots of water and waste it, for it makes Chicago a cleaner and healthier city.'' Unfortunately there is no hope that the editorial of Engineer- ing News on the utterance will be read by the citizens who con- trol the mayor who controls Chicago's engineers.
