ENGINEERS' MEDAL GIVEN T0 HOOVER - New Honor Marks Extension of Profession Into Public Service Field. | Herbert Hoover the engineer last night was honored by his fellows of the American Society of Mechanical Engl- neers when he was presented with the first Hoover gold medal, founded by the Society, to commemorate distinguished civic ‘and humanitarian achievements by_engineers. The presentation of the medal was! made during the banquet celebrating the fiftieth anniversary of the society and closing the latter’s two-day session at the Mayflower Hotel. In a brief speech of acceptance, the President made it evident how genuinely he appreciated this recognition from the men of his profession. ‘The ball room of the Mayflower was thronged with members of the society, among them the leaders of the profes- sion 1n this country as well as 22 foreign nations. Many of the delegates were accompanied by their wives and the scene was impressive and brilliant. Mr, Hoover was loudly cheered as the medal was presented and following his brief speech of acceptance. Shows Need of Engineers. In the speech President Hoover em- phasized the great need for engineers in government, but made it clear that he was not advocating that all public services be turned over to engineers. He stated that he had a high apprecia- tion of the contributions of the other professions, yet he insisted that the en- gineers have a contribution to make to public service and that they have an obligation to give that contribution. “I am glad to join with my fellow members in this celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers,” the President said at the outset of his speech. “It would be a difficult task to meas- ure the blessings brought by this society through the stimulation of invention from the raw material of pure science through the improvement of method, through the adequate training of en neers, and the advancement of knowl- edge in a large sense. “During its span of life it has con- tributed a great part in the development of an art into a mighty Frol‘euion upon ‘whose eapacity and fidelity so much of human progress must rest. Appreciation of Honor. “I feel especially honored that the combined engineering socletiss should through the beneficence of Mr. Lauer have established a new distinction amongst engineers and should have designated me as the first recipient. The purpose of the medal is to mark the public service of men who have gone outside of their strictly professional work to interest themselves in civic and humanitarian affairs, and the engineers ; have something to contribute to public service. I need but cite but one direc- g:g among the many that one could “With the application of science to the development of our great national tools—our engines, our railways, our automobiles, our airplanes, our steam- ships and our electric power, and a score of other great implements, to- gether with the supp! of materials upon which they depend—the engineer has added vastly to the problems of government, for government must see that the control of these tools and these materials is not misused to limit liberty and freedom, and that they advance and do not retard equality of oppor- tunity amongst the whole of our cil zens. “These great discoveries and inven- tions have brought great blessings to humanity, but they have multiplied the problems of government, and the perplexity ot these problems progresses constantly with the increase of our population. Every county government, every municipal government, every State government and the Federal Government itself is engaged in con- stant attempt to solve a multitude of public relationships to these tools which the engineers by their genius and their industry constantly force onto the very doorstep of the Government. Rignt Approach Urged. “And in solving these problems we have need for a large leavening of en- gineering knowledge and of the en- gineering attitude of mind and the en- gineering method. problems of public relations are unsolvable without the technical assistance of the engineer himself. They are unsolvable without the fundamental engineer’s approach to the truth. That is, first to determine the facts, arrange these facts in proper perspective, and then to distill the truth frem them in the retort of ex- perience, “Engineers do not undertake to build bridges, power plants or railroads with- out knowing the service that they are to perform, without infinite patience in discovery of economic and scientific fact, without an adaptation of experi- ence, without giving consideration to the capacity of the human material available to conduct them and without the final ecrystalization into positive and constructive action. “No one emotion enters into these determinations. Emotion is permissi- ble only in contemplation of their serv- ice to humanity. But when the prob- lems which these great tools create come to the door of the Government, they are at once emotional problems for the resolution of our people for equality of opportunity, for freedom frm dominatin, for maintenar.ce of in- dividual initiative, for liberty of action arise from the very deepest of human emotion, Patience Is Necessary. “And yet if we were to find a solu- tlon to these problems, if we would deal with them constructively, we must traverse the same road in ining the service we wish to perform, and with the same infinite patience dis- cover the economic and scientific facts, with the seme care and regard for adaptation of experience, with the high regard for the human material avail- able to conduct our administration, and with the same positive action in their application. and are often lost in & sea of embittered controversy. “It is for all these reasons that the engineers with their training, with their attitude of mind and their method, can contribute to the solution of the prob- lems which arise from their own crea- Other Professions Lauded. “1 am not sdvocating that all public service be turned over to pr: 1 have a high appreciation tribution of the other professions, but the engineers, I do msist, have a con- tribution to make to public service #nd they have obligations to give that con- and distinction which has been established by the United States Engineering Socleties should 'k this necessity and should stimulate ivities ©of our engineers in such service.” In presenting the medal to the Pres- Board. representing & branches of the board represen all branches society, paid a h tribute to Herbert Hoover’s civic contributions and his ac- lishments in the interests of hu- ity.

Charles Piez, president of the soelety, was unable to be present because cf illness and a message from him was read by the secretary. Robert A. Millikan, past president of the American Association for the Ad- vancement of Science and of the Amer- ican Society of Mechanical Engineers and Nobel prize wihner in physics in 1923, spoke on “The Bonds Between Science and Engineering” and pointed out the necessity for close co-operation between science and engineering.

Preservation of the old Potomac River Canal and locks at Great Falls, Va., as unique momentos of George Wash- ington’s work as an engineer and of his activities as a ploneer organizer of in- terstate commerce was urged by Lieut. Col. U. S. Grant 3d, director of public buildings and public parks of the Na- tional Capital, in an address last night over the Columbia Broadcasting System. ‘The American Socfety of Mechanical Engineers, which just closed its session here, contemplates acquisition of the canal property and Col. Grant declared it would be appropriate to the George w;;.;mngwn bicentennial celebration in 1032, D. Robert Yarnell, a member of the engineering soclety, also spoke in favor of preserving the property for its his- torical value. ‘The locks were inspected by many of them during the two-day convention and other parties went to Great Falls today as well as to the Bureau of Standards. ‘Thieves recently broke into the mu- seum of relics of the late Earl Kitchener at his former residence at Canterbury, England, and took valuable articles.

ROME, April 9.—Funeral services for Queen Victoria of Sweden were held this morning in the German Evangelical Church here in the presence of her husband, King Gustav; Prince Willlam and Princess Ingrid of Sweden, the King and Queen of Italy and Premier Mussolini. The body of the Queen was not at the services, but was carried later from the Villa Svezia, where she died last Priday, at the ng of 68,°to a special funeral train, which, with King Gustav, Prince William and Princess Ingrid aboard, departed for Stockholm. The church was hung with black and | was decorated with wreaths and palms. ‘The Swedish pastor from Paris recited the funeral service. | The music included a German chant | which Queen Victoria in her lifetime loved greatly. LABORITES IN RIOT DUBLIN, Irish Free State, April 9 (P).—Wild disorder broke out last night at a meeting of the Irish Labor party in the Mansion House, at which Labor leaders of the Dial and of the Senate were scheduled to speak. At the beginning of the meeting somebody in the hall shouted, “I move that Tom Johnson, arch-traitor and Englishman, be directed to leave the platform.” His reference was to Senator Thomas Johnson, one of the party leaders, A storm of cheering immediately broke out, but it was only a prelude to the uproar that followed. For two hours | jast the hall seethed with excitement, while speakers vainly tried to get a hearing. Chairs were thrown at the platform and police were summoned. A number of persons were ejected, but as the meeting even then was not pacified, it broke up in disorder.

Keen regret was expressed over the absence of Mrs. Nicholas Longworth, who was unable to attend the party, at which several stunts had been arranged in her particular honor. Mrs. Long- worth was in Chicago. However, a thrill was given to club members and their guests when in the course “of the evening. Mrs, Longworth | fir called the club “master of ceremonies” from Chicago. on the long-distance E‘hom and announced the success of rs. McCormick in the primary count. Mrs. McCormick is one of the club's proudest possessions, being member by Vvirtue of being owner, editor and pub- lisher of the Rockford Republic. Mrs. Gann Attends. Although Mrs. Longworth was absent, Mrs, Edward Everett Gann honored the occasion with her presence and de- lightedly applauded the numerous little “cracks” at her expense.

The club felt honored that Mrs, Peter Goelet Gerry journed all the way from Providence to attend the party. In addition to the honor guests of the club, there were many personal guests of members who have won distinction in many flelds. Farm Relief Depicted. Atter coffee the guests returned to the grand ball room and were seated in a square about the cleared floor, where the stunts of the evening were perform- ed with a finesse, which proves that the women of the press are able to claim histrionic honors equal to their accom- “fleld of letters. problem which proved to be but a “mere song and a dance,” was the opening number of the evening's program—a square dance in club’s members went through the intricate steps of a Virginia reel. An amusing skit and dialogue, “So- clal Service,” done by Ruth E. Jones and Elizabeth Poe, president and vice Presldent of the club, contained clever lines and amusing burlesque on some of the problems of newspaper editors. Gourley Edwards, now Mrs. Gouveneur Hoes, came from New York to delight her audience in conjunction with Mil- dred Brown in an entertaining skit, “The Swan Song,” which, to the regret of those present, was announced as the blic appearance of the “dumb- bunnies.” Jackie Martin received much applause in her “one-man act,” in which she sang some funny parodies on old fa- vorites, dedicated to some of the guests of the evening. A song dedicated to Mrs. Gann ran: “My brother, 'tis for thee, Since thou hast only me, I scheme and plan. “3Y, to 5 Ib. Average” CUDAHY'’S “PURITAN” HAMS SUGAR CURED PONY SKINNED “10 to 12 1b.

CHADSEY DIES IN ILLINOIS AT 59 Dean of University Was Leader in Educational Circles—Figured in Chicago Schools. By the Associated Press. URBANA, IlL, April 9.—Dean Charles E. Chadsey of the University of Illinols College of Education, whose resignation in 1919 as superintendent of Chicago schools followed Mayor Willlam Hale ‘Thompson's charge that he assumed powers of the board of education, died today. He was 59 years old. Prof. Chadsey, who had been dean of the university's Summer session for a number of years, went to Chicago in March, 1919, at the recommenda- tion of a citizens’ advisory committee. His salary of $18,000 a year provoked much comment at the time. Within a month Mayor Thompson had called upon Prof. Chadsey to re- sign, charging that he had abrogated privileges properly within the province of the school board. Peter M. Mortensen was then ap- pointed and a police guard was placed about the superintendent’s office to prevent Chadsey from continuing in office. In November a quo warranto writ reinstated Chadsey, but later in the month he resigned, saying he could not_secure the proper co-operation. ‘The University of Illinois immedi- ately offered him the deanship of the College of Education. Born in Nebraska City in 1870, Dean | Chadsey attended Downs College and was captain of the first foot ball team representing that college in intercol- legiate competition. Sao Paulo Gets Loan.
