, MONDAY, FEBRUARY 90; 122 VITAL PROBLEM HANDLING MEN, BEING SOLVED Walter Scott Addresses Confer- ence on Vocational Guidance at Madison, Wis. problem of American industry—that of handling. men — is being slowly solved in America, and, the times ahead are to be brighter, according to President Walter. Dill Scott of Northwestern university, who was the opening speaker at a conference on vocational. gujdance- which began at the University of Wisconsin here to- day. Many, notables in the vocation educational field were present. “Since the beginning of history we have made slow progress in ovr methods of handling men,” said President Scott. “The time is now ripe, however, for a period ‘of signifi- cant. progress in this field. There’ is said to be lack of control in the home, restlessness in the school, apathy in the church, shirking in the shops, dishonesty in the counting-houses, crime|in the city and bolshevism in the air. In spite of all this there is good ground to believe that our ent- rance into the World war in 1917) was the beginning of a period of real progress in handling men and that one of the significant achievements of the present generation will be. the de- velopment and the enhancement, of this progress.” é ' Principal Faetors a “Three principal factors of the new development of the handling of men in the United States,” President Scott said, “are along the lines. of. jocational guidance, of education and. of mofi- vation, all of which have taken on.a new meaning. hy “The new conception ‘of vocational guidance . and -selection,” President Scott continued, “is this: Every work- er should be placed in that position where he has the best possible chance to make the most of, himself. ."This must.be interpreted as consistent with the larger interest of the employer and as consistent with the larger in- terest of society as a whole. Accord- ing to this conception, the interest of the employe is first.” However, the interest of the em- ployer, of the public, as well as of the employe, is of high importance, the “speaker declared. This interest of and: in the employe “is so- new and novel” President Scott added, “that nq firm is able to carry it out completely at the present time.” our larger industries_are taking the first steps and are making progress, he affirmed. Judging Men “The purpose of judging men in in- dustry is to determine their fitness for particular positions,” he ~continyed, “Ten years ago there was not an in- dustrial organization in America that had available any serviceable occupa- tional description of.its various. jobs. Today most of our larger industrial organizations are preparing some form of occupational descriptions. These descriptions. state. fg each job the preliminary experience necessary or desirable and the subsequent posi- tions that should be considered-as in the regular line of promotion. They state the beginning wage, the rate of promotion, the maximum and the. av- erage wage.” President Scott said vocational guidance in industry cannot be con- sidered effective unless there is, in plant, an executive in charge of personnel. This personnel director must have authority and skill in ad- justing jobs and he,.must retain the confidence. of the workers and be an important official in the. corporation or company. President Seott said that the old prejudice. against “éducated men” has passed and that the em- ployer today is anxious to obtain edu- cated employes. A man, too, may be able to profit by. experience, or, educa- tion, when he ig sixty a8 well as when he is sixteen, Dr. Scott declared.
