By the Assoclated Press NEW YORK, January 25.—“What is technocracy?” The answer to that now famous question becomes even more of an enigma with the revolt which has developed in technocracy's | r men have been generally recog- ed_as technocracy’s thinkers: How- | Scott, the director; Walter Rau- ch, head of the Department of 2l Engineering at Columbia ty: Frederick Ackerman, archi- nd economist, and Bassett Jones, electrical engineer and mathematician, With the resignation of Rauten- strauch, Ackerman and Jones, tech- nocracy as the specific description of a group of men thinking along similar s now is confined purely to Scott i dherents. The lines along v are thinking are: That the m (which is any social sys- measures value in money) is oded and must collapse; that & 1 facter which will make it col- an_overwhelming and ever- en of debt; and that an- | § perhaps a major, factor is advence of the machine which must men out of work if the machine’s ction is sold at a profit—that is, ced and distributed for personal her than purely for use by the & whole society. No Longer Technocrats. A statement answering “What is tech- | *“from the viewpoint of the leaders in the group now | § is imposs because they are no longer technocrats. Rautenstrauch and Jones, howcver, have announced that & re- search along lines similar to the for- mer research will continue at Columbia. What is that research attempting to | find out? First, it is attempting to| gather voluminous and accurate data as to the grow of industry in the| last 100 years; the effects of the march | of the machine (such as, “Will it pro- duce chronic and inevitable mass un- | emriovment?”) and finally, the effect| of cebt. A~ a matter of research, both sides | of the arugment appear to be pretty much in agrerment. Each is seeking | the iacis about the machine, debt, un- | ent and production. As to the | s ‘o be drawn from those ¢ is disagreement, at least.| the public preséntation of | tions are concerned. The h-Jones group announced k the facts, and that any rawn from the facts would » presented and argued in the most | approved and scientific manner. It is th> implicaticns of technocracy which have aroused most of the argu-| men The oft-repeated statements that an American need work only four hours & day and four days a week; that he need work only between the ages of 25 and 45; that he could receive the equivalent of $20.000 a year under & more efficlent system; that 12,000,000 to 15,000,060 men could do all the Na- tion’s work if the most efficient avail- able methods were used—all of these, ; Scott says, are in the nature of sym- bels to indicate the possibilities of re- Juvenating the Nation. Scott has said, in personal conversa- : tion, that such figures cited to awake the Nation to its feilure to obtain what it might have. He has said that these things are not easily or quickly obtain- | able. He added that they cannot be | obtained under this system. | Denies Responsibility. His foes argued that he used and al- lowed the use of such figures to imply that technocracy actually promises these | fulfillments. Scott pointed out that he | wes not responsibie for the implications which others drew from official remarks | made by him or other technocrats. Op- ponents immediately replied that per- mitting these ideals to be held out as capable of immediate accomplishment was unscientific and unfair. As to the future of technocracy, a As to the future of technocracy, a per- son closely associated with the organiza- tion believes it will continue. He holds Scott has a mission which Scott himself cannot define, but that he will fulfill that mission even though uncognizant of his basic purpcse, which, in this friend's . i5 “to act as a cetalyst in de- ng powerful and effectiv thinking 1 in_the reformation of so- friend sald technocracy's o0 ors are numerous, but that those errors are of minor importance.
