B. Rosi. chief] physicist of the bureau of standards of the Department of Commerce. Having known =omething of Dr. o ‘ | l Rosa’s work. of his steadfastness of purpose and of his high ideals of service, it seems right to ask for a brief space to recall them. It is fashionable to assume that govern- ment departments and government men are ecssentially inefficient. The obvious and necessary wastes of a democratic form of government often cloud the eyes of our people from the self-sacrificing _spirit and the high motives of public service, which con- trol scores of cloistered men in the scientific. enginecrinz and r ch divisions of our feleral government department; Dr. Rosa belonged to that class. Well known in the electrical industry, he was comparatively unknown to the pubiic at larze. Yet for twenty] vears he has served the natiog and it seems just that his scrvice e re- corded publicly at this time, when | public service of the highest andi finest character is essential if uur‘ nation is to solve some of the eco-| momic and social problems which face us. A witty British publisher recent- ly. in addressing a group of pub- lishers of engineering and industrial journals, said that may be two camps. One camp included people of brains, Sidney Webbists, socialists and radicals of various hues of red. This group might be ictured. he said, as having brains ! without expericnce. In the other he ! placed business men, representatives | of both labor and capital. who al- most could be said to have experience but no brains Our conditions in this count not England’ a Jeadershi land that combines perience. The relation of our government de- | partments to industry for this kind of lead passing calls public attenti kind of service thut must be Government department men, one nand, and men of indus commerce must have speat for each other if ward. The Devariment of Commerce has an opportunity for leadership which depends for success on mutual respect. Mr. Hoover has established the policy that the department be de- veloped as an aid to industry, a place where the rank and file of manufac- turers and merchants may come for help, a center for the standardization of business practices, the simplifica- tion of processes and a weather map of business conditions Mutual respect, high ideals of serv- ice and the bringing together of brains and experience will bring re- sults F.

Seven thousand people in Chevy Chase and a very large proportion of the population of Washington have seen a striking illustration of ex- jpansion of church activities in the District in the inauguration of the movement for financing greater build- ing accommodations for religious worship at Chevy Chase Circle.

This is the condition of affairs in one of the argest suburbs of the National Capi- tal that has caused the nwakening of interest and support of the mosi prominent men and women of Wash- ington during the past week.
