It takes yeara for man to prepare himsclf for $10,000 jobs, and ¢his lack of preparation is the cause of the dearth of these men. The moving machinery made by man hae travelled overwhelm: éngly faster than man himself.

Perkins, whom I questioned concerning the scarcity of $10,000 men, as claimed by Thomas Edison, who sald recently: “A New York man was looking for a couple of $10,000 men the other day. He couldn't find ‘em.
